IXIASOFT announced the release of the newest version of its native XML database, TEXTML Server 2.0. The new version features enhanced performance and scalability, along with targeted new functionality such as support of foreign languages through UNICODE, and numerical data indexing. It is compatible with Windows NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 platforms. TEXTML Server processes XML content without any additional conversion and eliminates the need for the unproductive shoehorning of XML documents into relational databases. It has been instrumental in reducing development costs and efforts in the realization of projects involving XML content. TEXTML Server 2.0 offers faster indexing of content and faster response times to queries while keeping the hardware requirements to a minimum. TEXTML Server 2.0 is now available for purchase and evaluation through IXIASOFT’s website. www.ixiasoft.com
