Expanded Functionality Gives Enterprises Access to Mission-Critical Data to
Improve Business Agility, While Conserving Host Resources
SEATTLE--(Business Wire)--
Attachmate Corporation today announced the availability of Attachmate DATABridge
version 6.0, the latest release of its comprehensive Extract, Transform, Load
(ETL) solution for securely integrating Unisys MCP DMSII and non-DMSII data to a
secondary system. DATABridge version 6.0 includes a new user interface, plus
additional features and functionality to help organizations easily access and
analyze mission-critical business information, in order to make informed
decisions, while simultaneously conserving host resources. 

With DATABridge version 6.0, production data can be easily integrated within a
relational database such as Oracle DB2, Microsoft SQL Server or other DMSII
database located on an entirely different Unisys host system. 

"While most decision-making and business intelligence (BI) tools support
relational databases, Attachmate DATABridge is the only out-of-the-box solution
available that seamlessly integrates MCP host data within a relational
database," said Joe Joseph, president of Joe Joseph & Associates, Inc. and
co-developer of DATABridge software. "We have looked at recent research, and the
momentum to migrate mainframe applications to distributed systems has subsided.
More specifically, organizations that use the DMSII platform to store
mission-critical data will not likely migrate off the platform in the next five
years, which makes DATABridge an ideal solution." 

"Accessing mission-critical information in real-time provides a huge competitive
edge in today`s business environment," said Barbara Ballard, product manager for
Attachmate. "With DATABridge version 6.0, we continue to bring value to our
Unisys customer base by providing solutions that help them cost-effectively
integrate or even migrate legacy data into their existing enterprise
architectures." 

ETL Technology for Improved Decision Support

Attachmate DATABridge version 6.0 fits seamlessly into existing infrastructures,
giving enterprises the ability to gain powerful insight into the key performance
indicators that drive their business. Key features and functionality of
DATABridge version 6.0 include:

* Remote Client Access
The ability to run the DATABridge client as a service or a daemon allows
database administrators to interact with the client remotely.

* Enhanced Client Side Management Console
Enhanced user-interface via the client-side management console enables users to
perform traditional data management tasks more efficiently, and adds the ability
to get statistics in real time.

* Multi-threaded Client
The multi-threaded client feature significantly increases efficiency in
processing data queries.
