Embarcadero Technologies Delivers Comprehensive Governance-Ready Data Management Platform
March 2013 by Marc Jacob
Embarcadero Technologies, a provider of software solutions for application and database development, announced Embarcadero DB PowerStudio® XE3.5, the latest release of the company’s award-winning database management and development platform. DB PowerStudio XE3.5 is a key component of Embarcadero’s new metadata governance platform, which allows organisations to leverage diverse data across information management and the software development lifecycle for successful data governance initiatives.
Embarcadero’s Metadata Governance Platform – Empowering the DBA
Unprecedented data growth coupled with compliance regulations and the need for companies of all sizes to make better business decisions, faster and more frequently, has created a greater need for data governance. Embarcadero’s Metadata Governance Platform serves as a starting point for successful data governance by providing a comprehensive picture of all data assets—whether they reside in hardware, the cloud, or in a central on-premise repository—and making that valuable data available to IT professionals and decision makers. Until now this process has been overly complicated, fragmented and costly for businesses.
The entire Embarcadero portfolio is “governance-enabling” and designed to share metadata and deliver control and value across the business planning and software development life cycle. In particular, DB PowerStudio XE3.5 is designed to operate across multiple database platforms with little overhead and robust performance, streamlining and centralising vital data management tasks. The tool suite complements vendor database management tools by standardising and centralising comprehensive administration, development, diagnostic and performance tuning capabilities across multiple platforms—dramatically increasing productivity and improving database availability.

DB PowerStudio XE3.5 empowers DBAs and database developers to align with data governance initiatives. Solutions include:
