How's this for an example, Jack! Tuesday April 20, 8:08 am Eastern Time Company Press Release SAND ANNOUNCES Nucleus Powered! Branding Program CHICAGO, ILLINOIS, MONTREAL, QUEBEC, CANADA-- Branding Program allows Software, Hardware, Appliance and Internet Providers to Embed and Bundle Nucleus E! within Industry Solutions COMDEX SPRING '99 EXHIBITION Sand Technology Systems International Inc. (NASDAQ:SNDCF - news) today announced the inception of The Nucleus Powered! Branding Program. The Program will afford software, hardware, appliance and Internet providers the opportunity to implement and utilize Nucleus' core strengths within specific solutions through a combination of embedded and bundled programs. Sand also announces the general availability of Nucleus E!, a small footprint, network aware, highly optimized, storage efficient database engine that has proven to be ideal for embedding or bundling with software solutions like relational database management systems (RDBMS), ERP applications, Internet search engines and the new breed of vertical and horizontal business intelligent analytical applications developed specifically for CRM, fraud detection, capacity planning and risk management implementations. Nucleus E! incorporates exceptional query performance, tremendous storage reduction and significantly decreases network I/O for hardware manufacturers and Internet providers within implementations like search engines, in-memory database applications, intelligent routers and digital switches, Internet, consumer and intelligent appliances, storage controllers and chip sets. Nucleus E! is an ideal technology for new and emerging markets like system-on-chip solutions that will require very specialized database functionality and performance for use within solutions like Smart Card technology for banking and Point- of-Sale cards for consumer use. The ways in which corporate and consumer-oriented information is presented, processed, stored and accessed must rapidly change for all information technology providers. Processing data in a quick, concise manner without the overhead of traditional server-centric computing is becoming more imperative with the advent of technologies such as Internet, consumer and intelligent appliances, PDAs, portable phones, in-memory databases and Smart Card solutions being used by consumers. Internet, router, hardware appliance and chip manufacturers will find Nucleus E! improves the overall way in which data may be presented, delivered, processed and accessed while reducing the processing power, network traffic and memory space required to be useful. Software implementations like ERP, RDBMS, analytical applications and search engine technologies will see that Nucleus E! allows them to store and access data in predictive and random patterns which improve software performance and customer satisfaction. Internet Service Providers (ISP) implementing Nucleus E! will witness a decrease in network requirements for processing consumer data requests by 80 percent and an improvement in consumer response times during peak usage hours. ''Consumer-oriented and mobile information processing requirements have changed the terrain where we accumulate, manage and access data,'' stated Kevin M. Horigan, Executive Vice President at Sand. ''Portable phones, PDAs, televisions, set-top boxes and Internet appliances are pushing to become the computers of the future. Nucleus E! is very unique in that it has proven to provide hardware, software, appliance and Internet technologies with the speed, flexibility and robustness needed for the next generation of consumer-oriented and mobile computing devices
