SoftBase Announces TestBase Data Slicer 1.0

New Software Delivers Powerful Self Service Test Data & Concurrent Testing Functionality to Move for DB2™ and File-Aid/RDX™ Solutions

Asheville, NC - December 27th, 2006
SoftBase Systems, Inc., a leading provider of DB2® for z/OS® Application Test Data Solutions, announced today that its new Data Slicer™ software will be generally available in 1st quarter of 2007.

Data Slicer utilizes SoftBase's recently patented Slice™ technology to enable all testing personnel to retrieve their own test data and work together without affecting each other's results - even if they already use third party testing solutions such as Move for DB2 or File-Aid/RDX.

"Companies are constantly inquiring about our TestBase™ solution which includes our newly patented Slice technology" said Gary Blair, CEO of SoftBase Systems. "However, many of them are hesitant about removing their existing test data subsetting solutions from Princeton Softech and/or Compuware since they have already invested substantial time and effort to deploy this software."

"Therefore, we decided to allow everyone to substantially improve their DB2 for z/OS testing practices regardless of what vendor solution they own today. SoftBase Data Slicer will now take any company and IT staff to a whole new level of DB2 application testing concurrency and simplicity!"

Data Slicer can provide the following additional capabilities to your DB2 for z/OS application testing environments:

  • All testing personnel can load and refresh their test data whenever they desire
  • EVERYONE can run application tests at the same time without affecting each others' results
  • Application developers and QA personnel can retrieve their own test data without ANY DBA assistance
  • All application testing is done in one place - DBAs no longer have to build and synchronize multiple DB2 testbeds and databases
  • Improve your ROI from your Princeton Softech or Compuware solution by ensuring all application testors can use Move for DB2 or File-Aid/RDX extracted test data

Data Slicer is deployed quickly and works seamlessly with any existing DB2 application testing solution. Free 30 day trials are available from SoftBase upon request.
