DBGeneral Supports Latest HP TurboIMAGE Enhancements

Bradmark Technologies Inc announced the release of DBGeneral 7.4, a software product that improves database performance and simplifies the management of Hewlett Packard's TurboIMAGE database environments. These enhancements address a database administrator's (DBAs) need to control large databases and allow management to keep pace with the growth and development of HP TurboIMAGE databases.

DBGeneral is a comprehensive management solution that monitors entire HP TurboIMAGE database environments for performance issues, greatly reducing the possibility of downtime. Through proactive monitoring, DBGeneral enables DBAs to anticipate and address critical events, rather than reacting to problems after they occur.

"Today's global e-business environment has intensified the complexity of databases and created a challenge for database managers to effectively maximize performance and control their business-critical information," said Jerry Fochtman, director of research and development HP 3000 for Bradmark Technologies. "DBGeneral identifies database problems and automates the corrective action, enabling database professionals to develop and maintain HP e3000 environments as efficiently as possible, ensuring the highest integrity of their data."

Key features of DBGeneral 7.4 include:

• Full Support for the latest TurboIMAGE Features
• Integrated Diagnostic and Precision Repair Functions
• High-Performance Dataset Capacity Management
• Fastest Structural Change Capabilities in the Industry Since 1981, Bradmark's DBGeneral has supported the evolution of the HP TurboIMAGE database management system with easy-to-use options that boost performance and identify critical problems. The management software enables users to easily manage database operations, while giving users the assurance that their databases are structurally sound.
