Mark Logic is a software company located in San Mateo, California, USA. It is the creator of a new category of enterprise software known as an XML content server.
The company was founded in 2001 by Christopher Lindblad, architect of the Ultraseek search engine at Infoseek, to address the emergence of XML as the document markup standard and XQuery as the standard means for accessing collections of XML documents. To give customers the ability to effectively handle large volumes of XML content, Mark Logic was created around four key ideas:
Content - to build a system specifically designed to handle content (e.g., documents), not data.
XQuery - to build a system with search-engine-like performance, able to respond to queries in milliseconds.
Speed - to build a system with search-engine-like performance, able to respond to queries in milliseconds.
Scale - to build a system capable of handling contentbases up to tens or hundreds of terabytes in size.
Mark Logic's product, called MarkLogic Server, is used by leading companies in the information industry including Elsevier Science, Wolters Kluwer, Oxford University Press, and New England Journal of Medicine. The company also has several US government customers.
Mark Logic is privately held and backed by Sequoia Capital and Lehman Brothers.
Mark Logic's CEO is Dave Kellogg, a veteran of the database and applications software industry. Prior to joining Mark Logic in 2004, Dave served as senior vice president of worldwide marketing at Business Objects, a leading business intelligence software company. Before that he held technical and marketing positions at Versant Object Technology and Ingres Corporation.
