TORONTO & SANTA CLARA, Calif. – (September 7, 2005) - DataMirror® (Nasdaq:
DMCX; TSX: DMC) today announced the expansion of its partnership with
Australian software developer and integration specialist, Eucalypt Software
Partners (Eucalypt), to provide strengthened enterprise application
solutions to customers undertaking integration projects. The partnership
leverages solutions built upon DataMirror Integration Suite and Eucalypt's
experience with implementing enterprise software solutions.
Eucalypt's second generation interface development methodology toolset,
known as The Right Approach (TRA), supports direct synchronization with
DataMirror Integration Suite to reduce programming costs by eliminating the
need for design components to be re-keyed in the development phase of a
project. Completed interface and database definitions can be reverse
engineered out of an Integration Suite repository and merged into existing,
or new, TRA documents at the end of a maintenance coding cycle.
"DataMirror is pleased to be working with Eucalypt to deliver low-risk,
flexible technology that guarantees the delivery of reliable information
across all of the systems that create and store data," said Nigel Stokes, CEO, DataMirror. "Working with Eucalypt to develop integration and data
warehousing solutions reinforces DataMirror's commitment to help
organizations make business decisions with the best available information."
The Right Approach has been successfully deployed at a number of key
DataMirror customer sites, including the University of Technology Sydney
(UTS) where TRA methodology was used to design and document the conversion
interfaces for the student system migration project.
In partnering with DataMirror, Eucalypt benefits from DataMirror's
established global customer base of more than 2,000 customers and from more
than ten years of leadership in the real-time data integration software
solution space. In return, Eucalypt brings more than nine years of
enterprise software integration experience to the partnership along with and
extensive knowledge of DataMirror solutions.
"Eucalypt has been developing add-on technology to the DataMirror
Integration Suite for more than five years now. The methodology provides a
framework for the planning, analysis, design and deployment phases of an
integration project through an encapsulation of sound software engineering
principles." said Martin Flanagan, Chief Technology Officer at Eucalypt
Software Partners. "Through implementing The Right Approach, users can
reduce the uncertainty often associated with the adoption of a new
integration tool and achieve a result of the highest quality sooner."
