Progress Real Time Division Offers Competitive Upgrade Program for Versant and Objectivity Users.BEDFORD, Mass. -- Migration to the ObjectStore(R) Database Management System Offers Versant and Objectivity Users an Easy and Cost Effective Alternative for Improved Processing of Real-time Data Real-time data denotes information that is delivered immediately after collection. There is no delay in the timeliness of the information provided. Some uses of this term confuse it with the term dynamic data. The Progress Real Time Division, a leader in real-time products for event stream processing Event Stream Processing, or ESP, is a set of technologies designed to assist the construction of event-driven information systems. ESP technologies include event visualization, event databases, event-driven middleware, and event processing languages, or complex event , data management, data access and synchronization, and an operating unit operating unit A type of operating company that engages in transactions with outsiders and that is owned by another business. For example, in 1995 the stockholders of Capital Cities/ABC approved a $19 billion merger with the Walt Disney Company, whereupon of Progress Software Corporation (Nasdaq: PRGS PRGS Phosphoribosylglycinamide Synthetase ), today announced a competitive software upgrade program for customers of competing object database management products from Versant (Nasdaq: VSNT), Objectivity, and others, who are looking to improve the reliability and responsiveness of their database applications. The upgrade program enables these customers to quickly and easily transition to the ObjectStore(R) object database management system (ODBMS (Object DataBase Management System) See object database. ), the recognized market and technology leader in this area. Customers who take advantage of the program, which runs from May 1 to September 1, 2005, will receive 50% trade-in credit for their current runtime licenses (up to $100,000). "Companies making substantial technology investments are looking for Looking for In the context of general equities, this describing a buy interest in which a dealer is asked to offer stock, often involving a capital commitment.

"The ObjectStore competitive upgrade program provides a quick and easy way for organizations to migrate to the ObjectStore ODBMS. Those who take advantage of this opportunity will experience improved speed and reliability, lower total cost of ownership and the confidence gained from working with a vendor they can count on." Highly scalable and featuring support for all industry leading platforms, the ObjectStore ODBMS is a proven technology for developing data intensive, object-oriented applications requiring the highest possible performance and scalability. ObjectStore uses virtual memory mapping Memory mapping is a process whereby some item of digital hardware is connected to a processor's address bus and data bus in such a way that it can be accessed (for reading and/or writing) exactly as if it were a memory cell. to store data in exactly the form in which it is used by applications and provides extremely fast in-memory access using a patented Cache-Forward(TM) architecture. This allows applications to store and manipulate information at in-memory speeds with complete transactional data integrity and all the other benefits of a traditional enterprise-class data management system such as clustering, online backup, replication and high availability. The competitive upgrade program includes a free assessment to determine the scope of the migration project, as well as customized professional services offerings to rapidly convert applications from other object database products. The worldwide professional services organization's extensive experience in converting applications from other database technologies ensures a predictable and painless migration to ObjectStore. ObjectStore's strong support for C++ and Java(TM), and standards such as Java Data Objects Java Data Objects (JDO) is a specification of Java object persistence. One of its features is a transparency of the persistent services to the domain model. JDO persistent objects are ordinary Java programming language classes; there's no requirement for them to implement (JDO JDO Java Data Object(s) JDO Jewish Defense Organization JDO Java Data Objects ), also reduces the time necessary to make the transition.
