Bentley Announces New Rapid Deployment Configuration of ModelServer Continuum.LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 27, 1999-- Bentley Systems Bentley Systems, Incorporated, provides software for the "Design, construction and operation of the world's infrastructure". The company’s software serves the building, plant, civil, and geospatial vertical markets in the areas of architecture, engineering, construction (AEC) , Incorporated (Exton, PA) today announced ModelServer Continuum(TM)/RD, a new configuration of ModelServer Continuum focusing on rapid deployment. ModelServer Continuum, working with Oracle(R) 8.0 and Oracle 8i from Oracle Corporation (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :ORCL ORCL Oracle (stock symbol) ), is an information broker of enterprise and geoengineering data for applications. It enables organizations to present a "contiguous" database of engineering and spatial data Data that is represented as 2D or 3D images. A geographic information system (GIS) is one of the primary applications of spatial data (land maps). See spatial analysis, spatial resolution and GIS glossary. to their business applications. The geoengineering data stored in the Oracle database takes full advantage of Oracle Spatial Oracle Spatial forms a separately-licensed option component of the Oracle Database. Oracle Spatial aids users in managing geographic and location-data in a native type within an Oracle database, potentially supporting a wide range of applications — from automated , ensuring that all of the Oracle systems-level services are available. New ModelServer Continuum/RD brokers information not just to Oracle, but also to and from MicroStation GeoGraphics(R) files. For organizations with existing geoengineering data, this server product can be rapidly deployed without affecting workflows, applications, or these associated files. Enterprises, government agencies, and organizations with investments in geoengineering assets will benefit from fast implementation in existing environments. Mark Millman, vice president of geoengineering technologies at Bentley, states, "There are many users in local governments, transportation, and planning, for example, that have had great success and made large investments in MicroStation(R) environments and geoengineering data. These types of organizations do not necessarily want to redevelop re·de·vel·op v. re·de·vel·oped, re·de·vel·op·ing, re·de·vel·ops v.tr. 1. To develop (something) again. 2. applications or significantly change their day-to-day practices to experience the benefits of ModelServer Continuum." He adds, "With ModelServer Continuum/RD, they are up and running quickly, and realizing the benefits of combining enterprise and spatial data." ModelServer Continuum/RD can be used with MicroStation/J(TM) or the MicroStation GeoGraphics engineering configuration. In addition, users of MicroStation GeoGraphics-based applications such as MicroStation GeoWater(TM) and MicroStation GeoParcel(TM), for example, will now be able to preserve their existing data stored in files, but still combine it with enterprise data and spatial data stored in Oracle. ModelServer Continuum/RD will be available early in the third quarter of 1999. Like other ModelServer(R) products, Team Bentley Continuum(SM) will work with Bentley Integrators and MicroStation Value-Added Resellers A value-added reseller (VAR) is a company that adds some feature(s) to an existing product(s), then resells it (usually to end-users) as an integrated product or complete "turn-key" solution.
