Outstanding Trainee Testimonials

Some of this period's outstanding trainees submitted training summaries, learning reflections, and suggestions for the GBASE GBase database. We thank everyone for their enthusiastic support of domestic databases. Excerpts are shared below for your reading.

Zhu Kongming — Operation & Maintenance Engineer, Shanghai Baosight Software Co., Ltd.
At the invitation of a colleague, I signed up for this GBase8a training. During the training, I gradually learned about the overall architecture of GBase8a, including components such as GCware, GCluster, and GNode, and further studied advanced features like intelligent indexing and transparent adaptive compression. I experienced firsthand the powerful capabilities and operational convenience of the GBase8a database.
Currently, domestic databases urgently need to build their own ecosystems, and training is an excellent means of promotion and development. GBASE has done a great job in this regard, offering 12 training sessions each year covering 8a, 8c, and 8s products. The training includes not only a series of video courses but also post-course exercises, which help stimulate learning enthusiasm and consolidate knowledge points.

Kuai Zirui — Senior Software Engineer, Bank of China Software Center (Shanghai)
Previously, when using GBase database at work, I only learned the basic syntax from the SQL development manual. This training helped me understand the core knowledge of GBase from its fundamental architecture, including the interaction logic among different types of nodes. I gained a deeper understanding of GBase syntax and commands, which will strongly support my future development and maintenance work.

Chen Dong — Software Engineer, Bank of China Software Center
The multi-day GBase 8a certification training has concluded. This period of focused learning has given me a more systematic and deeper understanding of distributed database technology.

From theoretical frameworks to hands-on exercises, the training content progressed step by step — from GBase 8a's architectural design and data distribution strategies to cluster deployment and performance tuning. Every topic was closely tied to real-world application scenarios. The instructor's detailed explanations with case studies not only clarified the core logic of distributed storage and parallel computing but also allowed me to personally experience the efficiency and stability of this domestic database in large-scale data processing while configuring clusters and handling data sharding.

As a practitioner deeply engaged in the data field, I fully understand the significance of the rise of domestic database technology. This training not only improved my skills but also gave me a direct appreciation of the technical strength of the GBase product family. In the future, I will apply what I have learned to practical work and look forward to contributing my share to the domestic database development trend.

Chen Shuang — Development Engineer, Shanghai Jinqiu Information Technology Co., Ltd.
This training systematically covered the core technologies and operational essentials of GBase 8a. Through a combination of theory and practice, it significantly improved my cluster management and SQL optimization capabilities. The instructor's expert explanations and analysis of common pitfalls were particularly practical, laying a solid foundation for efficiently supporting business data scenarios in the future. Thank you to the team for their meticulous organization and generous teaching!

Xie Mengtong — Assistant Software Engineer, Bank of China
Before the training, my understanding of GBase was limited to the basic perception that it is a "mainstream domestic database," and I often assumed a gap in functionality and application scenarios compared to foreign products. But on the first day of class, the instructor shattered this bias with clear architectural diagrams and industry case studies — from core financial systems to government data platforms, GBase's stable operation examples made me realize that domestic databases have long been deployed in mission-critical business scenarios.

This learning experience made me deeply aware that the rise of domestic databases is not just a slogan but the tangible achievements of countless technical professionals. In my future work, I will carry this insight forward, confidently applying GBase's technical value to real business needs and contributing to the promotion and adoption of domestic databases.

Yang Shasha — Employee, Zhangjiakou Bank Co., Ltd.
The powerful capabilities of GBase 8a provide strong support for data processing and analysis, and the knowledge and skills I have acquired will become important tools in my future work. I look forward to applying the training achievements in practice — optimizing database performance and improving data processing efficiency to contribute to business development. At the same time, I will continue to study more features of GBase 8a, continuously improve myself, and keep pace with technological advancement.

Fu Kun — Development Engineer, Shanghai Anshuo Information Technology Co., Ltd.
I am very fortunate to have participated in this GBase database training. The short learning period greatly benefited me. As a data analyst, this training filled gaps in my knowledge of domestic database technology and gave me a clear understanding of GBase's architectural design, transaction processing mechanisms, and other aspects. I now comprehend GBase's unique advantages in performance optimization and security compliance, and I am deeply proud of the independent innovation in domestic databases.

Yang Xiuchun — Project Manager, Beijing Yuxin Technology Group Co., Ltd.
During the training, learning about GBase 8a's architectural design and data distribution principles, combined with hands-on practice, suddenly illuminated the key points for me. As the course progressed, from basic SQL operations to advanced performance optimization, each piece of knowledge was like a puzzle piece that gradually formed a complete cognitive framework of GBase 8a for me.

Wang Yongchao — Department Manager, Shanghai Anshuo Information Technology Co., Ltd.
The training content was professional yet explained profound knowledge in an easy-to-understand manner. It was comprehensive, starting from the history of database development and then moving to SQL and practical applications of the GBase system.
