Syncsort have just started shipping DMExpress Release 5.0, with new platform support and functional enhancements. The response from the first local customers to install the new version has been very positive - with one being heard to say "This product just keeps getting better - we'll be taking advantage of the new Mainframe and SAP connectors almost immediately."

Functional enhancements to sources and targets mean that SAP, IBM Mainframe and MicroFocus users can now take advantage of accelerated processing with DMExpress 5.0. Also included in DMExpress 5.0 is support for additional data types, such as Oracle Large Objects. Optimized performance for platforms like Netezza and Vertica significantly reduces data processing time, in some cases cutting data load time by over 80 percent. Further enhancements include additional standardization, cleansing, and validation functions to increase data quality, as well as "right-time" information delivery to ensure that data remain actionable.

“Syncsort's commitment has always been to provide high-speed solutions to the performance problems of any mission critical data integration process or application," says Harvey Tessler, Syncsort’s Senior Vice President of Marketing, "With its support of SAP, IBM Mainframe, and MicroFocus, as well as its tailored optimization for Netezza and Vertica, DMExpress 5.0 integrates smoothly into our customers' processes and applications, allowing them to focus on what they do best: their business.”

The new release comes on the heels of Syncsort's achievement of a new ETL world record which broke the 1 GB per second barrier and also smashed the previous benchmark set by Microsoft and Unisys.

"The added functionality in DMExpress 5.0 coupled with the world record achievement reaffirms Syncsort as a leader in the field of data integration," says Tessler, "Our continued commitment to providing high-speed, cost-efficient solutions has redefined the cost of data integration as companies look to tighten their belts and increase results in 2009."
