DBPro Support for Other Databases

Published 09 June 08 04:01 PM | tmancini 

One of the most common questions I hear when talking about the Database Professional edition is "does it support anything other than SQL Server?"  And my standard response was always "not at this time" --  which was not a real 'no' but more of a 'not yet'.

Well, I'm very glad to report that we've made our first announcements around multi-platform support.  Working in conjunction with IBM, DBPro will be gaining support for DB2!  Read all about it here: DataDude Goes Multi-Platform.  Want to see for yourself?  Learn how to download the preview from here: VSTS 2008 Database Edition GDR June CTP.

So, are SQL and DB2 the only supported platforms?  "Yes, at this time." :) .  Actually, read that 2nd linked posting carefully, and you'll read that "there are others that are working on providers for other database management systems."
