SRS Announces Powerful New Release Peabody, MA, July 2000 – Strategic Reporting Systems (SRS) announced today the release of MUMPS Data Extractor (MDE™) V1.3. This release is in response to both tremendous demand for MDE™, and anticipation of additional customer needs. MDE™ V1.3 creates a new technology base upon which SRS can build enhancements to meet or exceed customer expectations for performance, platform integration, and ease-of-use. MDE™ V1.3 has further extended its reach into the VA’s VISTA system by being able to read and extract their Lab File data. This is an accomplishment few, if any, other company has been successful in achieving. This release demonstrates SRS’ continued commitment to improving its products in response to customer requests. MDE™ is a COTS (commercial-off-the-shelf) middleware application that natively reads the FileMan-based M/Caché system, extracts then delivers data and pre-built SQL tables into relational data warehouses/marts, databases or applications. Unique to MDE is that it does not require any underlying M-based SQL, SQL mappings, or M/Caché programming to be performed. Within sixty minutes of installation, MDE™ allows a system’s data to be available for use with mainstream technologies. Examples are data warehouse/mart and ROLAP, products such as ReportSmith®, Crystal®, SAS, or desktop applications such as Microsoft® Excel, Word, Access or Lotus® Notes. MDE™ V1.3 was enhanced to include i) Integration of Microsoft’s® DTS (Data Transformation Services), ii) Capability to natively read and extract data from the VISTA Lab File and Accession File, iii) Ability to have MDE Client connection to multiple MDE sites to perform multiple concurrent data extractions, iv) Support for Oracle DBMS, and v) Improved TCP connectivity for enhanced performance. David Lenhart, General Manager of SRS, commented, "We have achieved something no other company can lay claim to. That is, we can now natively read and extract the entire VA VISTA system. In doing so, this legacy environment is wholly open for use with mainstream technologies and contemporary application software. Bolstered by Microsoft® and DTS, we are positioned perfectly and uniquely to deliver a low-cost, high value, turnkey solution for the Department of Veterans Affairs. MDE™ is definitely the right solution for the VA. MDE™ removes any reason to not access and use data the way users want, in a way they want, and in a format of best use and understanding to them and their clients, the Veterans." Mr. Lenhart added, "As a result of our success with the VA, we have interest coming from the Department of Defense (DoD). Understanding that these two Department’s system environments are very similar, DoD can quickly achieve the same beneficial results that the VA user has enjoyed." SRS is headquartered in Peabody, MA.
