DataMirror Introduces Beta Program for New Oracle Data Resiliency
Solution
DataMirror Corporation (TSE:DMC), a leading provider of e-Business
data integration and resiliency solutions, announced today that it
intends to leverage its expertise in real-time data replication,
resiliency and clustering solutions to deliver a high performance,
cost-effective solution for Oracle High Data Availability (HDA).
DataMirror also unveiled the preliminary details of its new Oracle
HDA Beta program to over 20,000 business executives, IT
professionals and application developers from the Oracle global
community at Oracle OpenWorld 2000, the world's largest
conference of Oracle e-Business solutions.
The purpose of the Oracle HDA Beta program is to solicit ongoing
feedback and suggestions from customers as they implement,
evaluate and utilize the Beta test version of DataMirror's data
resiliency software for Oracle. Over the next six months,
DataMirror developers will work closely with Beta customers to
build a robust Oracle high data availability and resiliency
solution that meets the challenges of today's real-world
processing and business environments. Applications for Beta
participants will be accepted via the web beginning November 1st
by visiting datamirror.com.
"Globalization, business consolidation, and the Internet have
driven the need for true 24/7 data availability," said Nigel
Stokes, Chairman, President and CEO of DataMirror Corporation.
"Companies now routinely have thousands of employees, customers,
and suppliers all over the world accessing their Oracle-based
systems, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. An Oracle high data
availability offering represents a tremendous opportunity for
DataMirror to further extend its product line into the lucrative
Oracle market space while providing customers with a much needed
Oracle resiliency solution. We believe that 96% of the Fortune
e50 runs Oracle and we know that resilient solutions are part of
the software customer's need for the Internet."
This announcement is another in a series of ongoing initiatives
aimed at strengthening DataMirror's presence in the global Oracle
economy. DataMirror recently completed the acquisition of the
assets of Constellar Corporation of Redwood Shores, California.
Constellar's EAI software ensures that companies' application data
is available to any other application to create integrated
end-to-end e-business solutions. It includes pre-built interfaces
to major ERP packages such as Oracle, SAP and PeopleSoft.
DataMirror expects to integrate Constellar Hub, a leading Oracle
based Enterprise Application Integration tool, with DataMirror's
complete family of Transformation Server real-time data
integration tools, to provide Oracle customers with a completely
integrated end-to-end solution that includes replication and
resiliency.
