Progress
(NASDAQ: PRGS), the leading provider of application development and
digital experience technologies, today announced the latest release of
Progress® OpenEdge® Pro2™, the only data replication solution needed for
easy, fast data replication from the OpenEdge platform into separate
OpenEdge, SQL Server or Oracle databases. Today’s release now enables
greater productivity and agility while navigating complex application
modernization processes.

Data replication is an integral part of effective data management and
any app modernization effort. The OpenEdge Pro2 replication solution has
always provided fast data replication without disrupting normal business
operations or risking transactional database stability. The latest
version, Pro2 6.0, offers expanded functionality and a modern interface
for improved efficiency, productivity and proactive monitoring.

Ease-of-Use
Progress OpenEdge Pro2 6.0 delivers easier
configuration, management and usability allowing existing customers to
benefit from increased agility, performance and scalability by:

  • Enhancing productivity through a simpler, guided replication wizard.
  • Easing application modernization data migration efforts through
    backward compatibility during version upgrades.
  • Providing rapid setup through improved installation processes.

Improved UI
With a new, more modern, intuitive web UI,
Database Administrators (DBAs) now face far less complicated
configuration and management, have access to easier mapping from source
to target and get an immediate picture of actions and processes. This
includes the most modern interface available for faster and more
proactive testing and monitoring of the replication process; a series of
high visibility UX dashboards for proactive monitoring; and improved
agility with real-time performance analytics.

Speed
Through the quick replication process setup, OpenEdge
Pro2 allows companies to be agile in delivering the critical business
data needed to support their analytics and BI initiatives. By leveraging
Progress OpenEdge Change Data Capture (CDC), OpenEdge customers and
partners can deliver low-latency, near-real-time replication of that
data to support not just traditional descriptive analytics, but also
predictive analytics, AI-driven decisions, and time-sensitive IoT events.

“Progress OpenEdge Pro2 data replication provides us with increased
flexibility in allowing us to use the BI and analytic tools of choice,”
said Tim Bloudek, Director of Information Systems, BRAAS. “We’re not
locked into any one solution. This ensures that we are more efficient
and effective in obtaining pertinent information giving us the ability
to quickly turn that information into actions.”

“Organizations are under immense pressure to drive innovation within
their organization by implementing the latest technology advancements,
while maintaining and modernizing a slew of legacy systems,” said John
Ainsworth, SVP, Core Products, Progress. “Progress has continued to ease
developer pain points with the release of technologies to speed and
automate the modernization process – Progress OpenEdge Pro2 6.0 is no
exception. It provides added layers of agility and speed, removes
complexity and delivers the reporting and analytics capabilities
businesses require as part of the critical data replication process.”
