Office golf for sys-admins made easyWritten by Roxana Danaila
The InfoSecurity New York fair is hosting today launch of BitDefender for CommuniGate Pro 1.6.1, a gateway security solution that scans all incoming e-mail for spam and viruses.The new packages include an upgrade function to ensure that previous installations are preserved and old settings are properly imported. Upgrade from versions 1.5.6 and 1.6.0 is supported. "One of major changes from version 1.6.0 is a new patch management tool we affectionately call BitDefender Swiss Army kniFE (bdsafe). It's capable of patching any and all installed BitDefender components, whereas before this had to be done manually, by system administrator. In true Linux tradition, we have kept manual patching option as a default, but administrators can now just set BitDefender for CommuniGate Pro 1.6.1 to patch itself automatically, whenever a patch is made available. This, we hope, will leave them with more time available for other productive activities, such as office golf." declared Mircea Mitu, BitDefender Business Line Manager.
| | The Best Day Ever to Design a Database StructureWritten by Vladimira Sikorova
Have you ever been faced with challenge of designing a new database structure? Do you have to redevelop an existing database? The truth is that creating or developing a database structure requires at least basic knowledge of SQL scripts. If you have to design a very complicated database structure with a lot of tables (entities), plenty of information (attributes) and complicated relationships among them, it' s very uneasy... Overall, whatever you have to do with databases, it has always been difficult, time-demanding and expensive. Computer aided software engineering (CASE) is a technique that using some of its tools enables you to create softwares more easily. CASE tools assist software engineering managers and practicioners in every activity associated with software process, e. g. in systematic analysis, design, coding, implementation, testing work, maintenance etc. Using CASE tools, architecture and design of software become more apparent and easier to understand and modify. Charonware, s. r. o., a software company based in Czech Republic, specializes in designing high-quality database modeling CASE tools. Its flagship product CASE Studio 2 new version 2.18 has just been released. “CASE Studio 2 helps companies create or redevelop their database structures easily, quickly and at a very reasonable price in comparison to other similar competitive products,“ says Vaclav Frolik, Charonware's Sales and Marketing Manager. In other words, instead of many hours spent on writing SQL scripts, CASE Studio 2 allows you to draw large Entity relationship diagrams and generate SQL scripts automatically, even for various databases (and at a reasonable price). Other powerful CS2 features are: reverse engineering, generation of HTML and RTF documentation, data flow diagrams, export into XML format and many more.
