Objectivity Extends Free Trial Period For Objectvity/DB

Objectivity Inc., a leader in high performance database engines that manage complex data, real-time applications and very large volumes of data, today announced that it has extended the trial period for its most recent release of Objectivity/DB, 7.1.5.

The free trial of Objectivity/DB, which is available from www.objectivity.com through October 1, 2003, provides developers with an additional 90 days to evaluate Objectivity/DB at no charge. Objectivity/DB is the ideal database for government, oil, gas and chemical process control, telecommunications and scientific applications. Featuring industrial-strength Java and .Net interfaces, plus Container Managed Persistence for BEA's Weblogic, Objectivity/DB Release 7.1.5 is clearly the choice for distributed, scalable, and mission-critical applications.

The free Objectivity download includes transparent interoperability for C++, .Net, Java, Smalltalk and SQL++/ODBC applications running on Windows with a renewable license that doesn't expire until October 1, 2003. This BEA Ready release adds Container Managed Persistence to its existing Weblogic ready facilities. Additionally, Objectivity/DB offers developers superior fault tolerance that ensures data and business-critical application availability despite network or system failures, providing fault isolation and improved transaction performance by replicating schema, data dictionaries and lock services. Objectivity/DB also offers data replication for continuous availability and improved performance by replicating databases across multiple sites, providing a combination of data integrity and availability not offered by other replication solutions.

Objectivity Empowers Developers with Free Trial

Developers simply need to visit www.objectivity.com and complete the download request form. After submitting their requests they will receive e-mail confirmation from Objectivity. The e-mail guides developers to the download site where they will be stepped through the download and installation procedure. Ease of use, productivity tools and samples are included for quick evaluation of Objectivity/DB and to ensure that developers immediately receive value from Objectivity's database products.

"Our initial trial period was so successful that we decided to extend it to provide more developers with access to Objectivity's robust feature set," says Leon Guzenda, chief technology officer at Objectivity, Inc. "We found our downloads soared last quarter so we felt an obligation to continue our trial program into this quarter to ensure the success of developers with complex application challenges."
