FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Aestiva Delivers Web-Based Database
Torrance, CA. May 3, 2000. To most database vendors, a database is just one
element of a Web site. But Aestiva, a proponent of Webputing, thinks
databases should be more than just an afterthought. It is now delivering
database management, access and control entirely through the Web.
Aestiva's database technology allows HTML pages to automatically tie in to
databases. "This is not possible with legacy databases," says David
Silverberg, Aestivas Director of Technology. Adding, "Oracle, Microsoft
SQL and Informix were not made for the Web."
By building its database into its Web operating system, Aestiva has
eliminated database integration and standards problems that hamper
developers ability to build database-driven Web sites. The
fully-functional database operates entirely over the internet through the
Web browser.
Customers have discovered that Aestiva databases are highly reliable. Setup
of an Aestiva database is point-and-click - there is no need to set up
drivers or purchase database integration tools. A designer can obtain
information out of the Aestiva database and display it on a Web page by
writing a single tag in the HTML document. Best of all, access is fast,
taking milliseconds rather than seconds.
The Aestiva database brings a new level of maturity to the emerging field
of Webputing. It allows businesses to create and maintain databases on the
Web more efficiently than ever before. Ask any Aestiva user whether they
would rather use a Web-based database or a legacy database and youll get a
resounding vote for the Web. "Theres no contest," Silverberg affirms.
Aestiva HTML/OS is available for Sun, SGI-IRIX, BSDI, FreeBSD, Linux,
Cobalt RaQ, Windows, MacOS 7-9 and MacOS X platforms. Aestiva HTML/OS
retails for $799.99.
