MindWorks, Inc. Announces Demo of SelectRefresh™
Data Replication Software at 2008 ASUG Annual Conference - Booth
#2208
Broomfield, Colo., March
27, 2008 – The Software Division of MindWorks,
Inc., a Colorado-based supplier of SAP services, has announced that
it will demo its SAP data replication software product, SelectRefresh™
for SAP, at the 2008 ASUG Annual Conference. SelectRefresh for SAP
replicates SAP business data at high speed from production databases
as large as 20TB to non-production SAP systems. Learn
more about SelectRefresh.
SelectRefresh for SAP intelligently creates a subset
of real-time data for use in non-production systems which include
development, quality assurance and training systems. The intended
market for the product is enterprise and mid-sized companies.
Historically, IT departments have struggled to copy
their full Production database to non-production systems, a process
that can take hours or even days, given the massive size of these
databases. Expensive staff is often tied up, and critical systems
must often be taken off-line, significantly increasing data administration
costs.
“Today, storage and system management costs
are typically four to five times the acquisition costs of storage
hardware and software,” reports David Vellante, co-founder
of Wikibon.org and a former Sr. Vice President at IDC.
Proprietary AutoDiscovery™ technology used by
SelectRefresh automatically interrogates the underlying table structure
of a database – even identifying newer, user defined “Z
tables” – before copying the structure to a client or
target system. The table is then rapidly populated with data, creating
a much smaller but accurate replica of the Production database.
SelectRefresh can also execute an efficient full database copy.
SelectRefresh for SAP reduces disk requirements, improves
data integrity, helps to ensure successful upgrades and expedites
the building of testing, development and training environments.
It also helps improve accountability measures required by Sarbanes-Oxley
compliance goals.
“We expect SelectRefresh to benefit our clients
immediately,” says Matt Rausenberger, MindWorks’ Chief
Operating Officer. “Now developers will be able to quickly
migrate up-to-the-moment data from Production databases to any and
all SAP environments. But what really distinguishes SelectRefresh
is the high degree of data integrity it ensures. Now technical and
business people won’t have to ask, ‘Is this data accurate?’
because it will exactly mirror what is in Production. As a result,
our clients will see a significant reduction in infrastructure costs.”
MindWorks has been providing SAP data replication
software to customers since 2004 in addition to its comprehensive
SAP services offerings.
Conference attendees are invited to visit Booth #2208
at ASUG for a SelectRefresh for SAP demo and to learn more about
the product.
