High Speed Database Export
March 24, 2009
I have received several comments and emails about search and content processing system performance. I have been aware of the disconnect between the vendors’ assurances about performance and real-world behavior. With some organizations using traditional relational databases to house XML content, some operations can be sluggish due to the amount of data stuffed into a series of tables. If export speed, flexibility, and automation are important to you, you may want to take a look at Active Database Software here. The company produces the FlySpeed Data Export component. The software component makes it possible to save data in Excel, comma separated values, HTML, and other formats. You can automate most data export operations. You can download a trial from the company’s Web site here. A single user license for the universal build of the tool is about $100. Give it a try. A trial is available.
