Object Design has announced ObjectStore PSE Pro for Java, the first 100% Pure Java database to be certified fully compatible with Sun Microsystems` PersonalJava application environment.
Object Design is represented in South Africa by Software Futures, a subsidiary of Computer Configurations Holdings.
The PersonalJava environment is Sun`s application environment for network-connectable applications running on personal consumer devices for home, office and mobile use. Applications under development for PersonalJava include handheld computers, set-top boxes, game consoles, mobile handheld devices and smart phones.
ObjectStore PSE Pro for Java is a database for developers creating these applications because it requires less memory and offers superior performance and time to market when compared to traditional databases.
"PersonalJava is highly scalable and configurable while requiring minimal system resources, key considerations for embedded software applications," says Derek Hughes, Software Futures` object technology specialist. "Object Design`s ObjectStore PSE Pro 2.0 provides a valuable technology for PersonalJava developers because it subscribes to the same values with a small footprint and high performance. Together, PersonalJava and PSE Pro provide a valuable solution for Java developers."
ObjectStore PSE Pro for Java is a full featured, 100% Pure Java DBMS. It runs anywhere Java does, including on the PersonalJava environment and Windows CE, and it deploys quickly and automatically with no administration required.
ObjectStore PSE Pro for Java has a 300kb footprint and its pure object architecture reduces database and application memory requirements by 25% or more, when compared to relational databases. No other database uses less memory, which reduces the cost of producing PersonalJava-based devices such as personal digital assistants, set-top boxes and consumer devices.
"As a compact 100% Pure Java database, ObjectStore PSE Pro 2.0 is a natural fit for embedded systems developers," says Hughes. "PSE Pro makes it easy for Java developers to deploy mobile computing and embedded solutions across the widest possible range of desktop, server, and realtime operating systems."
ObjectStore PSE Pro for Java 2.0 with PersonalJava support is available now from the Object Design(R) Web site at http://www.objectdesign.com.
