From April 10 to 12, 2014, the 5th China Database Technology Conference was successfully held at the Crowne Plaza Beijing Wuzhou Hotel. Centered on the theme “Exploring Big Data Technologies and Unlocking Value,” the conference continued its mission of sharing IT best practices, offering attendees insights into the latest developments in databases and big data technologies. Unlike previous years, this edition of the conference was structured around two main tracks—traditional databases and big data—allowing for deeper exploration into the current landscape and future trajectory of database technologies, along with practical lessons from industry transformation.

As one of the event sponsors, Beijing NineBridge Sync Software Co., Ltd. invited DataSynapse Systems (Beijing) Ltd. (a U.S.-based company) to co-participate in the summit. NineBridge Sync specializes in real-time synchronization solutions for Oracle databases, helping enterprises build robust disaster recovery systems across local and remote sites. Their Oracle database synchronization products have been widely adopted across industries including securities, futures, banking, telecommunications, retail, manufacturing, government, public security, aerospace finance, healthcare, and insurance.

The event brought together China’s top data architects, DBAs, database developers, R&D directors, and IT managers. Technical insights were paired with real-world case studies, featuring prominent figures such as: Guoqiang Gai (Founder of EnmoTech and Oracle ACE Director), Chunpei Feng (Senior Director of Data Platform at Alipay), Yuan Wang (Vice President of NetEase Hangzhou Research Institute), Haichao Yang (Head of Sina Data Systems), Yanwei Zhou (Director of Databases at Qunar.com), Zhenkun Yang (Senior Researcher at Alibaba), Chunjian Bao (Director of Data Center at Tencent), Rui Zhang (Technical Expert from Taobao Core Database Team), and Chuntao He (R&D Director at Inetsoft). Their sessions were comprehensive and engaging, reaffirming the event’s status as China’s most popular and influential database technology forum.
