- Data General To Intro Mumps Migration Tool Data General Corp. next week will unveil software that will let health-care businesses unlock information buried in proprietary databases and application development environments. The software, called the Mumps Data Extractor (MDE), is a data migration tool that will help users of the proprietary Mumps environment convert data to Microsoft's SQL Server 7.0. Once the data is in SQL Server, administrators, developers, and users can create reports with the host of data mining and application development tools that work with the database. Developed 30 years ago as an open-source technology, Mumps was designed as a database and application-development environment. Over time it was embraced by the health-care industry and became a de facto standard. However, it's become nearly impossible to find Mumps developers who can unlock information from the system. MDE, which was developed by Strategic Reporting Systems Inc. under a technology alliance with Data General, will be available Nov. 15. Pricing will be determined by the amount of Mumps data that has to be migrated. - Martin J. Garvey
