Paradigma Ships Valentina Technology Release 2.2 Products
NEW UNIVERSAL BINARY SUPPORT, PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENTS
February 21, 2006. Beaverton, Oregon. Leading multi-platform database vendor Paradigma Software, Inc, makers of the ultra-fast Valentina 2 Office Server, announce technology release 2.2 of all of its Valentina 2.x based database products.
Valentina 2’s next generation, object-relational database model builds on the traditional relational database model much like C++ builds on top of the C language. All that you know from working with traditional database systems from IBM, Oracle and Microsoft also apply to Valentina-based development. This robust technology excels at ultra fast management of millions of records.
Valentina 2.2 ADK for REAL Software’s REALbasic includes support for Mach-O, three new array handling functions, three new bit handling functions, and four new record navigation functions. Performance improvements for conversion from Valentina 1.x to 2.x format were also included.
In support of Apple’s Intel-based Macintosh systems, Valentina 2.2 Technology Release includes Valentina 2.2 ADK C++ Universal Binary for Mac OS X, and a universal binary version of Valentina Studio, the database browser, query and server set up tool. A universal binary edition of Valentina Office Server is in internal beta. All new features are supported in Valentina Embedded Server, a component of Valentina Developer Network. With Valentina Developer Network, developers can ship true server applications royalty free.
“Valentina is fast, and faster still on Mac-on-Intel. We are committed to supporting the new architecture and, as soon as IDE vendors can ship their Intel ready solutions, we will be waiting,” said Lynn Fredricks, president of Paradigma Software.
The release also included improvements in the COM (VB 6, Delphi), .net (VB 2005), Macromedia Director and Runtime Revolution versions. ADK Standard Edition ADKs start at $199; VDN pricing begins at $499. Owners of the 2.x versions of the products receive a free upgrade to 2.2.
