ANTs Software Announces ANTs Data Server Version 2.4

ANTs Software Inc announced availability of Version 2.4 of the ANTs Data Server, which now enables simultaneous high-performance transaction processing and online analytics. The new version of the ANTs Data Server enables transaction-processing systems, such as trading, reservations, e- commerce and analytics applications, to handle high user loads and real-time updates while delivering high performance.

"ANTs Data Server Version 2.4 enables a new class of strategic, real-time business applications," said Boyd Pearce, ANTs president and COO. "Enterprises increasingly must assure real-time performance for a wide range of business intelligence, compliance and monitoring needs, and the ANTs Data Server can deliver it."

The ANTs Data Server is based on a SQL query execution engine that incorporates innovative lock-free operations. Version 2.4 supports and maximizes the performance of Intel hyperthreading Pentium chips and enables access to up to 64GB of main memory on 32-bit Linux and Windows platforms. Enhanced JDBC performance and new optimizer routines accelerate complex queries and scanning.

Designed for high-availability applications, the ANTs Data Server includes disaster recovery capabilities such as replication and failover with automatic recovery. Because of the ANTs Data Server's patented architecture, replication and on-line backup have a minimal effect on performance and enable unmatched recovery speed. Robust disaster recovery capabilities are requirements for compliance with a wide range of regulations such as the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, Gramm-Leach Bliley and others.
