Embarcadero hails model-driven data management

TAGS: None

Embarcadero Technologies this week announced an upgrade of its model-driven data management system, Embarcadero ER/Studio 6.0.

The company's technology helps coordinate application development and data management functions through a model-driven approach to simplify analysis of the current state of data and where it needs to be, helping to implement transformation, according to an analyst's statement.

The new version further leverages data models as the common language to enable disparate teams to work together, according to Embarcadero.

New features in version 6.0 include:

* An advanced model data comparison and merge utility allowing design teams to work independently but concurrently.

* Support for the MySQL open source database.

* A reporting engine that simplifies the process of communicating designs and meta data to the Web.

* An upgraded user interface that accommodates Windows XP/.Net 2003 controls.

When coupled with Embarcadero's ER/Studio Repository 2.5, both products enable team-based modeling collaboration capabilities that allow for greater administrative control over the development, monitoring and administration of user security within the collaborative model server.

ER/Studio 6.0 and ER/Studio Repository 2.5 ship in late-August, with pricing for ER/Studio beginning at $2,995. ER/Studio Repository prices start at $10,000.
