OpenLink Software Unleashes Virtuoso 3.0
Virtual Database Integrates Disparate SQL, XML, and Web
Services Data Sources
Burlington, MA, April 8, 2003 - OpenLink
Software, Inc., a leading provider of universal data access and
enterprise information integration middleware, announces the
commercial release of Virtuoso 3.0 the latest edition of
its cross platform Virtual Database for SQL, XML, and Web
Services.
The new release enables transparent and concurrent access in
real-time to heterogeneous data sources that include ODBC/JDBC/OLE
DB/.NETaccessible databases, XML documents, and data-set
oriented Web Services.
Virtuoso provides access to heterogeneous data sources through
industry standard data access interfaces such as XML, XQuery,
XPath, SQL, ODBC, JDBC, OLE DB, and ADO.NET. It also integrates
transparently with runtime environments for distributed computing
such as Microsoft .NET, Mono, and J2EE, enabling the creation and
hosting of WSDL-compliant XML Web Services, Stored Procedures,
Functions, Triggers, and User Defined Types written in Java or any
.NET bound language.
Virtuoso 3.0 is now commercially available for the following
platforms: Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and UNIX.
'Virtuoso 3.0 is aimed squarely at the biggest corporate IS
infrastructure challenge of the day integration of
heterogeneous islands of data, and disparate application logic,'
said Kingsley Idehen, President & CEO of OpenLink Software.
'Virtuoso is the only product available today that guarantees
alleviation of systems integration challenges without compromising
broader IS infrastructure choices such at the application
development environment, operating system, or back-end database
engine(s). Once again, an OpenLink product release underscores our
continued leadership in the area of standards-compliant,
cross-platform middleware,' he added.
Virtuoso 3.0 is now available for download from OpenLink's web
site at http://www.openlinksw.com/virtuoso/.
