I was a little light on detail about Basho, because while I had just got an update on the company, that was in a pub with strong craft beers, so I wanted to make sure I didn&#8217;t break any confidences.<\/p>\n<p>So I asked them what was going on locally. As if any more proof were necessary that things are kicking off here, hiring activity is always a leading (and lagging!) indicator. Basho is currently looking for 7 people to join the 9 already at work in its Shoreditch office.

If you like data management at scale this could be the gig for you. Basho&#8217;s RIAK database is currently displacing Oracle for the NHS Spine project, which is a very big deal indeed. RIAK for speed and compliance management. Huge story &#8211; I wonder when the press will get to it.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>disclosure: Basho is a client.
