IMM Corp. announces Cyrano Suite Version 2 unique on-line, real-time application performance analyzers for SQL server; Provides developers with accurate information to analyze every transaction; reduces development time by 30 percent or more by identifying poor SQL transactions.BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 23, 1996--IMM Corp. announces the Cyrano Suite Version 2 of on-line, real-time application performance analyzers. Based on Sybase's OpenServer technology, the Cyrano Suite Version 2 enables tracking of performance at the transaction level. Cyrano, when implemented from the earliest part of the development phase through production and maintenance of applications, assures the timely completion of top-quality SQL SQL in full Structured Query Language. Computer programming language used for retrieving records or parts of records in databases and performing various calculations before displaying the results. code. The Cyrano Suite Version 2 includes Cyrano Development, a unique product designed to allow DBA's and developers to be proactive in fixing performance problems before moving to production. Cyrano Production is an OpenServer process running in the background that focuses on the transaction to help DBA's and developers continue performance problem auditing and problem/prevention oriented maintenance. Cyrano Watcher is a client/server statistics analyzer, focusing on response times to allow DBA's or System Administrators to check problems reported by the end user and fix the problems that may come from network traffic, router settings, etc. According to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. John Rauscher, executive vice president, "The Cyrano Suite Version 2 can be used jointly with other tools, including those for load and stress testing Determining the durability of a system by pushing it to its limits. Stress testing a network is performed by transmitting excessive numbers of packets or attempting to break in illegally. , system management and monitoring.

"The combined tool set," he continued, "will minimize the risk of going into production with an insufficiently tested application. Best of all it analyzes the development team's performance by providing tools most needed at the precise time they are required." The Cyrano Suite version 2 at-a-glance Cyrano for Sybase is a suite of three independent products: CYRANO DEVELOPMENT is an OpenServer gateway that can be placed anywhere between the application and the SQL Server An earlier relational DBMS from Sybase and from Microsoft. Sybase introduced SQL Server in 1988 for various Unix versions. In that same year, with help from IBM, Sybase created an OS/2 version that Microsoft licensed and branded as Microsoft SQL Server. , thereby capturing any calls received by the SQL Server in the proper sequence. It raises alarms for any single transaction that exceeds predefined performance thresholds. Cyrano Development can also be used in a production environment. CYRANO PRODUCTION is and OpenServer background process running beside the production SQL Server. It periodically monitors SQL Server memory information, processing the information in real time within the OpenServer process to avoid overhead in the SQL Server, and raising alarms when any end-user exceeds predefined thresholds. CYRANO WATCHER is a client-side background process that will periodically run some predefined transactions in your SQL Server from different client locations. It enables the developer to gather statistics whenever desired on literally anything -- connection time, response time, number of users connected and identical transactions from individual PC's for comparison purposes. Rauscher added that Cyrano Development is completely at home with any application built on top of Sybase's Open Client regardless of origin. Whether the developer uses batches, DB-Lib, CT-Lib programs, DSS (1) (Digital Signature Standard) A National Security Administration standard for authenticating an electronic message. See RSA and digital signature. (2) (Digital Satellite S applications, or code from 4 GL's including Powersoft's PowerBuilder, Microsoft's Access and Sterling's ObjectView, bottlenecks can be identified before they occur in production. It is reasonable to expect a reduction in development expenses of more than 30 percent by using the Cyrano Suite." Cyrano Development is priced at $15,000 for a minimum of five developer/DBA's. Cyrano Production starts at $3,900 per physical server. Cyrano Watcher is $2,500 minimum of five PC's.
