"SQL Server Source Control for Developers" is an affordable alternative for software professionals who work with Microsoft's SQL Server database and who either want or require the ability to version control their database object scripts in similar fashion as the more expensive products from Red-Gate and Apex-SQL.
Many times developers and consultants find themselves in environments where there is no database source control available, which makes developing new databases and\or maintaining existing ones a more tenuous proposition when more than one person may have the capability to edit database objects... or delete them. Recommendations for obtaining relevant source control capabilities may fall on deaf ears as a result of budget constraints or from poor organizational priorities. "SQL Server Source Control for Developers" allows individuals to circumvent such situations by allowing professionals to maintain their own version control system on their workstations. This product also makes an excellent alternative for those professionals that work in their own home-offices.
"SQL Server Source Control for Developers" manages source\version control for the 12 types of SQL Server database objects...
•Tables\Indices
•Views
•Stored Procedures
•Triggers
•User Defined Functions
•User Defined Data Types
•User Defined Tables
•Sequences
•Synonyms
•Aggregates
•Xml Schema Collections
•Queues
"SQL Server Source Control for Developers" stores all of its source code scripts in local repositories that the user creates as necessary instead of networked, remote repositories as with the current major source-control platforms (ie: Subversion). Such local storage allows developers to easily transfer the repositories to any of the other machines where he or she has installed the product.
A standard 30-day trial is available with complete documentation. A single license for $79.00 USD allows for installation on up to 5 separate machines.
Questions concerning this product can be forwarded to support@blackfalconsoftware.com. Answers will be returned within a 24 hour period.
The trial version is available for download at Black Falcon Software.

- Stackify’s integrated errors and logs solution allows developers to search and manage logs across all their apps and servers, create intelligent error tracking, troubleshoot, and much more.
- By using Stackify , the team at Fewzion can now proactively identify and fix any issue within their suite of work management tools before the end-users even notice.
- “Stackify is a single solution that allows us to see all log and performance type data from one centralized dashboard, helping us identify system issues earlier and solve them much faster.” - Fewzion CEO Alex Retzlaff.
Australian work management software company Fewzion has become the latest international business to implement Stackify's unique all-in-one application performance management and error and log management solution. By utilizing Stackify’s application error and log management software, the team at Fewzion can now proactively identify and fix any system issue within their suite of work management tools before the end-users even notice.
These insights into system monitoring and log management facilitated by Stackify’s cloud-based solution allows developers in companies like Fewzion to save time when dealing with deployed software issues and, in turn, help development teams greatly improve overall client satisfaction.
Already providing workplace solutions for award-winning mines and large enterprises across Australia via its work management software, Fewzion allows its large-scale enterprise customers to design, create and track dynamic short-term work plans that empower supervisors to improve the efficiency of their operations.
“Stackify is a single solution that allows us to see all log and performance type data from one centralized dashboard, helping us to identify system issues earlier and solve them faster,” explains Fewzion CEO Alex Retzlaff. “Even if Stackify is installed in our clients’ private cloud, we are able to see it remotely and securely from the cloud-based Stackify solution. Stackify is affordable, dynamic, and offers great service, better than any of its competitors.” he says.
For developers looking for a multi-platform solution, Stackify supports numerous environments, including all Microsoft Windows® Server versions and major Linux operating systems, as well as applications based on .NET, Java, PHP, Ruby, and Python.
“Previously, if a software error came up we would have to dig through log files on our own servers and our client’s servers in order to find and fix that error,” adds Retzlaff. “Stackify was able to provide us with a log and error monitoring system that could work seamlessly within our clients’ cloud servers and be remotely accessible by our team, something we haven’t found in any other tracking solution.”
By combining a number of vital support tools in one solution, Stackify aims to overcome a common issue faced by many developers as they continuously deal with the glitches of their deployed software. According to VentureBeat, 56% of development teams see their apps succeed in testing environments, but fail in production ones.
“In our experience, a developer’s limited access to the right support tools, and the lack of solution integration by individual tools leads to a 30% loss in a developer’s overall productivity,” says Stackify Founder and CEO Matt Watson. “That is the difference with Stackify. We don’t just provide one tool, we provide everything that a developer requires to understand their application’s behavior in one centralized and integrated manner, allowing them to ensure quality support and optimal performance of their applications for their clients,” he adds.
About Stackify
Stackify offers the only developers-friendly cloud based solution that fully integrates application performance management (APM) with error tracking and log management in one platform. Stackify allows software developers, operations and support managers to easily monitor, detect and resolve application issues, before they affect the business to ensure a better end user experience, higher satisfaction and lower churn.

Xuni Provides Native Experiences in Android, iOS, and Windows Phone Using the Same API Across Platforms
PITTSBURGH, PA –August 20, 2015 - GrapeCity, the largest component solution provider in the Microsoft Visual Studio Partner Ecosystem, today announced the second and latest Xuni release, offering users native experiences across all mobile platforms. In this release, GrapeCity has evolved the Xuni product line and grown its mobile audience reach by offering controls for creating enterprise-level applications in iOS and Android in addition to the Xamarin Platform.
“With three new products, two new controls, and a new website, www.goxuni.com, GrapeCity is uniquely positioned to give users a native experience across mobile platforms,” said Greg Lutz, product manager at GrapeCity. “Whether you need a chart for Android, a gauge for Xamarin.Forms, or a datagrid in iOS, our controls help you create enterprise-level apps for all devices using the same
API across your platforms.”
Of the three new products, Xuni iOS is GrapeCity’s collection that includes iOS controls for use in native developer tools like Xcode and written with Objective-C or Swift. With out-of-the-box, time-saving animations and features, developers can incorporate the charts, grids, and gauges in Xuni iOS to add eye-catching visualizations to their application. Xuni iOS controls easily integrate into universal iOS 8 apps as well as iOS 7.1.
For Java developers working with native developer tools like Android Studio and Eclipse, Xuni Android offers the same fully-customizable charts, gauges, and grids and material design-based UI controls within the Android IDE of their choice. “No matter what your data needs are, Xuni Android controls can flex to fit them,” said Lutz. “Make our fully-customizable charts and gauges your own, and give your Android apps exceptional functionality with a native look and feel.”
Xuni Enterprise bundles all the Xuni Android, Xuni iOS, and Xamarin Platform controls into the complete collection of controls for cross-platform native mobile development. The latest release expands support for the Xamarin Platform as well. In addition to Xamarin.Forms, C# developers can now use Xuni controls in their Xamarin.iOS and Xamarin.Android applications to build native mobile apps using the tools and language they’re familiar with.
For many years, GrapeCity’s ComponentOne FlexGrid control has been the datagrid to which .NET developers compare all others. With this Xuni release, GrapeCity is now offering a FlexGrid control for native apps. “Xuni FlexGrid, available in all platforms, brings a spreadsheet-like experience to your mobile apps, with intuitive touch gestures, quick-cell editing, sorting, filtering, and fully customizable cells,” said Lutz.
The second new control in the Xuni release is CollectionView, a powerful data binding component. Xuni CollectionView provides currency, filtering, grouping, and sorting services for data collections and can be used with the new FlexGrid control.
“What makes Xuni unique and powerful is that it is one control set that is designed to deliver a universal experience across all mobile platforms,” said Lutz. “Our controls are helping to bridge the gap between iOS and Android so developers can more efficiently reach more users, and with Xamarin support the idea of developing once with a single control suite has become a reality.”
Availability
Xuni is available now and can be downloaded directly from www.goxuni.com. The company offers a no-charge, 30-day trial of GrapeCity Xuni Enterprise, Xuni iOS and Xuni Android, which may be downloaded at www.goxuni.com. Online visitors may also access tutorials, forums, documentation, and videos as part of the Xuni experience.

LEAD Technologies is pleased to announce the release of the Media Streaming Server SDK. This major addition to the LEADTOOLS Multimedia product line will be included with the LEADTOOLS Streaming Module (formerly the Video Streaming Module) and provides a programmer-friendly library for building professional audio/video multimedia streaming applications for playback on any device.
The new Media Streaming Server provides a high-level framework for streaming high-quality audio/video content. Using a single server, content providers can support a wide variety of both proprietary and industry-standard formats and protocols including Adobe Flash, Adobe HDS, Apple HTTP Live Streaming (HLS), Microsoft Smooth Streaming (SSF), RTSP and HTML5. With this flexibility, practically any device can play videos streamed from the LEADTOOLS Media Streaming Server, while the content provider only needs to maintain the source media in a single format. Once configured, the server automatically and adaptively converts any file within its repository on the fly to whatever streaming format is requested by the client.
"Streaming multimedia content to clients has grown into more than just a popular way to consume entertainment and digital content, it's an expectation," said Rich Little, President of LEAD Technologies. "Therefore, a growing number of companies want greater control over how they serve audio and video media to their clients rather than depending on third-party hosting sites or expensive proprietary streaming solutions. LEADTOOLS Media Streaming Server is the answer through its simple setup, robust configuration and user management options, and top-notch video playback quality."
In addition to the Media Streaming Server, several codecs, multiplexers and demultiplexers received updates and new features. In particular, the ISO/MP4 format was upgraded with support for JPEG-compressed video, uncompressed video, and non-square pixels. The addition of JPEG compression to the ISO multiplexer and demultiplexer allows for smooth 30fps reverse playback and superior video editing capabilities.
This highly-anticipated release is only the beginning of what LEADTOOLS plans to do with its Media Streaming Server. Future releases will include broadcasting live content and handling two-way streaming and communication with the goal of making LEADTOOLS Media Streaming Server the top choice for multimedia streaming among application developers and IT administrators alike.
About LEAD Technologies
With a rich history of nearly 25 years, LEAD has established itself as the world's leading provider of software development toolkits for document, medical, multimedia, raster and vector imaging.

GrapeCity has announced the 2015 v2 release of its ComponentOne Studio product, a world-renowned suite of data and UI controls for professional .NET developers building Windows, web and mobile applications. The v2 ComponentOne Studio release offers software developers innovative productivity tools for building sleek, high-performing, feature complete applications. With new features, new controls, and several enhancements, ComponentOne Studio provides developers the richest multi-platform toolset for building modern applications as well as for maintaining and updating legacy applications.
One of the biggest debuts in the v2 release is ComponentOne Studio’s new Web API. Available for access by web browsers or mobile tools, the Web API provides users the ability to import spreadsheets and export any data management or visualization control to the format of their choice. “With our Web API you can create a pie chart and export it to an image, export your grid to Excel, or import a full Excel file into a FlexGrid, and an endless amount of other possibilities,” said Jody Handley, product marketing manager at GrapeCity. "Being able to complete this as a function within the application itself and eliminating the need of building-in the ability to export data, offers significant return on investment."
Further enhancing the value of the ComponentOne Studio product is the addition of the new FlexSheet for WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) control. By extending the company’s popular FlexGrid control, GrapeCity has created C1FlexSheet for WPF, which provides more out-of-the-box Microsoft Excel-like functionality. "With this official release of C1FlexSheet for WPF, a user can import and export Excel spreadsheets, manipulate rows, apply pre-coded formulas and create their own," said Handley.
GrapeCity also extended some of their most popular WPF themes to support the Microsoft Ribbon control. For users with Ribbons in their WPF apps, they can now style their Ribbons to look like Office 2013 or make them completely flat and modern-looking with ComponentOne Studio’s Cosmopolitan themes.
Driving forward with better migration and full reporting integration, GrapeCity has added a new ReportPreview control for WinForms (Beta), four new chart types, script editors, and new features for report customization. "Our VBScript Editor now supports Intellisense and, with the Split View users, can compare multiple scripts at one time, making easier than ever to write scripts," said Handley.
When building modern, touch first solutions, the MVC controls inside ComponentOne Studio are not only designed to be fast and lightweight, they are also engineered to support any requirement. Handley shared that if the requirement is full compatibility with MVC6 and ASP.NET 5.0, ComponentOne Studio MVC controls will be fully compatible once Microsoft announces the framework has been released to manufacturing (RTM).
With the Microsoft announcement that the final releases of Visual Studio 2015, Team Foundation Server 2015 and .NET Framework 4.6 will be available for download on July 20th, Handley confirmed that GrapeCity will be a sim-ship vendor. In Handley’s June 30, 2015, blog post, "Windows 10 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2015” We’re There!" Handley wrote, "Yes, ComponentOne Studio and all its editions will sim-ship with Visual Studio 2015."
Availability
The company offers a no-charge, 30-day trial of ComponentOne Studio which may be downloaded at http://www.componentone.com/Downloads/. Online visitors may also access tutorials, forums, documentation, and videos as part of the ComponentOne Studio experience.

PITTSBURGH, PA – July 16, 2015 – GrapeCity has announced the 2015 v2 release of its ComponentOne Studio product, a world-renowned suite of data and UI controls for professional .NET developers building Windows, web and mobile applications. The v2 ComponentOne Studio release offers software developers innovative productivity tools for building sleek, high-performing, feature complete applications. With new features, new controls, and several enhancements, ComponentOne Studio provides developers the richest multi-platform toolset for building modern applications as well as for maintaining and updating legacy applications.
One of the biggest debuts in the v2 release is ComponentOne Studio’s new Web API. Available for access by web browsers or mobile tools, the Web API provides users the ability to import spreadsheets and export any data management or visualization control to the format of their choice. “With our Web API you can create a pie chart and export it to an image, export your grid to Excel, or import a full Excel file into a FlexGrid, and an endless amount of other possibilities,” said Jody Handley, product marketing manager at GrapeCity. "Being able to complete this as a function within the application itself and eliminating the need of building-in the ability to export data, offers significant return on investment."
Further enhancing the value of the ComponentOne Studio product is the addition of the new FlexSheet for WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation) control. By extending the company’s popular FlexGrid control, GrapeCity has created C1FlexSheet for WPF, which provides more out-of-the-box Microsoft Excel-like functionality. "With this official release of C1FlexSheet for WPF, a user can import and export Excel spreadsheets, manipulate rows, apply pre-coded formulas and create their own," said Handley.
GrapeCity also extended some of their most popular WPF themes to support the Microsoft Ribbon control. For users with Ribbons in their WPF apps, they can now style their Ribbons to look like Office 2013 or make them completely flat and modern-looking with ComponentOne Studio’s Cosmopolitan themes.
Driving forward with better migration and full reporting integration, GrapeCity has added a new ReportPreview control for WinForms (Beta), four new chart types, script editors, and new features for report customization. "Our VBScript Editor now supports Intellisense and, with the Split View users, can compare multiple scripts at one time, making easier than ever to write scripts," said Handley.
When building modern, touch first solutions, the MVC controls inside ComponentOne Studio are not only designed to be fast and lightweight, they are also engineered to support any requirement. Handley shared that if the requirement is full compatibility with MVC6 and ASP.NET 5.0, ComponentOne Studio MVC controls will be fully compatible once Microsoft announces the framework has been released to manufacturing (RTM).
With the Microsoft announcement that the final releases of Visual Studio 2015, Team Foundation Server 2015 and .NET Framework 4.6 will be available for download on July 20th, Handley confirmed that GrapeCity will be a sim-ship vendor. In Handley’s June 30, 2015, blog post, "Windows 10 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2015” We’re There!" Handley wrote, "Yes, ComponentOne Studio and all its editions will sim-ship with Visual Studio 2015."
Availability
The company offers a no-charge, 30-day trial of ComponentOne Studio which may be downloaded at http://www.componentone.com/Downloads/. Online visitors may also access tutorials, forums, documentation, and videos as part of the ComponentOne Studio experience.

LEAD Technologies, Inc. a leading provider of imaging software development toolkits has attracted the attention of various companies that process and/or interact with documents and images containing MICR codes with the release of LEADTOOLS Version 19.
Earlier this year, LEADTOOLS Version 19 was released with major optimizations to its OCR and MICR engines. Each of these technologies extracts text information from images or documents including TIFF, JPEG, PNG and PDF. Additionally, a new Check Processing algorithm was developed to combine both of these engines into a programmer-friendly interface for finding the important check fields such as the date, name, amount, signature, bank account and routing number.
"Inquiries related to MICR support have increased significantly this year," said Greg Kieslich, Technical Sales Manager at LEAD Technologies. "Developers are working with our demos and experiencing first-hand how easy LEADTOOLS makes adding MICR support to their application. The release of LEADTOOLS V19 was heavily focused on optimizing OCR accuracy and speed. Positive test results and customer feedback have shown that LEAD's engineers were successful in meeting this goal."
On top of the optimized recognition engines and check processing SDK, many of these companies were particularly interested in putting this technology to use within mobile devices and tablets running on iOS, Android and Windows. A new image pre-processing function, Perspective Deskew, was introduced in Version 19 to automatically correct three-dimensional skewing common on images captured from mobile devices. This advanced algorithm sealed the deal for several companies and is continuing to be a strong selling point for the LEADTOOLS Document Imaging family of products.
"With the recent signing of a six-figure, multi-year mobile deployment license with a well-known e-commerce retailer and multiple contracts under final review," continued Kieslich. "I am confident MICR recognition will continue to be a prominent component of financial/payment focused apps."

This month marks twenty-five years since LEAD Technologies, Inc. was founded by Moe Daher and Rich Little. Their company, headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, started as a means to sell Moe Daher's inventions in image compression, and has since matured into a globally recognized market leader in document, medical and multimedia imaging technologies.
LEAD's flagship software development kit (SDK) product line, LEADTOOLS, covers five key areas of imaging technology: Raster, Document, Medical, Vector and Multimedia. LEADTOOLS is equally at home within both large and small-scale applications, and from data processing centers to Smartphone apps. LEADTOOLS SDKs hold a significant footprint among application developers within the computer, government, defense, financial and healthcare markets.
LEAD Technologies' success doesn't start and end with LEADTOOLS though. In 2001, LEAD successfully launched a division, Medicor Imaging, which develops, markets and supports several medical imaging solutions powered by LEADTOOLS. Medicor's dental enterprise software, MiPACS, is widely distributed within large private and government enterprises, as well as in hospitals, imaging centers and universities world-wide.
"When Moe and I formed the company back in 1990, we were pretty optimistic about the kind of company we might build. Looking at LEAD today, we can both proudly say that it is everything we hoped it would be and much more!" said Rich Little, President of LEAD Technologies. "Reflecting back on the past 25 years, there are so many memories, some good, and some not-so-good, but the constants have always been there: an unwavering commitment to quality products, superior customer service, and a challenging and nurturing workplace. We would like to take this opportunity to thank our customers and partners around the globe, and our employees, without whom, this celebration would not be taking place. We are looking forward to continuing this incredible journey with all of you."
LEAD has grown from a two-person, cash-starved partnership trying to survive long enough to release version 1.0 of a product, to a company of nearly 100 employees, with a world-wide marketing presence in the developer community currently selling LEADTOOLS Version 19.
In honor of this milestone, LEAD will be running numerous promotions throughout the remainder of the year. Visit the LEADTOOLS Blog [^] for more information on their 25th anniversary promotions.

Leading cloud backup and disaster recovery provider uses Stackify’s integrated application performance management, application and server monitoring, and error and log management solutions to ensure its core application performance.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JH_vpNlf7k[^]
Carbonite, a leading provider of backup and disaster recovery solutions, has become the latest company to use Stackify’s unique all-in-one application performance management (APM), server monitoring, error tracking, and log management solution. Using Stackify, the Carbonite team has been able to expedite identification and resolution of application issues resulting in improved overall system performance and end-user satisfaction.
Viewable from one centralized dashboard, Stackify’s cloud-based insights into application health have recently been bolstered with the addition of its new APM+ software — an always-on solution that gives developers an increased understanding at every level of an application’s performance by offering code-level profile traces. The solution is fully integrated with Stackify’s existing application and server monitoring, error tracking, and log management solutions. This full suite of products provides Carbonite with a comprehensive view of the health and performance of its applications.
As a service focused on providing secure cloud and hybrid backup and disaster recovery solutions for small businesses and individual households, Carbonite’s suite of applications needs to be performing at all times. Stackify’s affordable solution provides Carbonite with a comprehensive, cross-platform status overview of its multiple systems, regardless of which app generates an error, where it is hosted, or which environment the app is operating in.
“Stackify was intriguing for a couple of reasons. It offered everything we were looking for in terms of a centralized location to view log information, error management and alerting, as well as monitoring, regardless of which application, hosting location or environment. On top of all that, they were much better priced than all of their competitors. We looked at five or six competitors and ultimately found that only Stackify gave us everything we needed,” said Michael Paterson, principal software engineer at Carbonite.
“APM+ has been an outstanding addition to the Stackify tool belt. The ability to see such detailed performance information without code changes has been incredibly beneficial. Recently we had a performance problem that could only be reproduced in production. We turned on APM+ and within a couple of minutes were able to identify the issue and a few hours later push out a fix. Without APM+ we would have added 10s if not 100s of log statements in an effort to get some of the information that APM+ gave us with the push of a button,” Patterson stated.
The immediate time and cost benefits of having one location for all application performance monitoring and log and error management needs has allowed the Carbonite team to focus on business-critical aspects that will increase its share in an off-premises cloud services market that — according to Infonetics — is expected to be over $200 billion by 2018.
“My comfort level with the quality and health of our hybrid cloud application between our on-premise data center and Azure Cloud services and storage is at an all-time high thanks in large part to the exceptional visibility provided by Stackify at the server, application, and code levels,” added Paterson.
“Stackify is quickly becoming the go-to service for companies and individual developers looking for a multi-platform solution that supports numerous environments. This is because we provide everything that a developer requires to understand their application’s behavior and health from a single place, allowing them to ensure quality support and optimal performance of their applications for their clients,” said Stackify VP of Sales, Jim Burroughs. “Being selected by a company such as Carbonite over other solutions strengthens Stackify’s position as a leading player in this market.”

Making search available to more platforms
When Keyoti first created SearchUnit (previous called Search for ASP.NET) it was primarily designed to meet the needs of ASP.NET web form developers. As time has progressed, developers have taken to new technologies such as MVC for building their web applications. As a result, Keyoti transformed their search component to meet the demands of these new frameworks by transitioning from an ASP.NET control based method of usage, to a new, more flexible, Javascript method.
Paving the way for new frameworks and devices
By utilizing Javascript, SearchUnit[^] now enables developers to easily add a search engine to any application whether MVC, Razor, Web Forms, HTML, ASP, jQuery or AngularJS and on any device.
Another advantage is the ability to create mobile search clients around internal search web services. By using the SearchUnit search web services it’s possible to add a powerful, index based, search interface to Android, iOS and Windows phone devices.
Help users find what they need
A simple search box on your website is not enough these days. You need to help users find the information they want as quickly as possible. Features such as ‘autocomplete’, ‘document preview’, ‘did-you-mean suggestion’ and ‘faceted’ search are essential to more and more web applications. Keyoti have further enhanced these features as well as adding new facets such as ‘Search Cloud’. Search Cloud is a collection of common search terms that users on the site have previously searched for, enabling other users to see popular search trends.
Take things further
Developers love to take control. By working with SearchUnit programmatically they can do just that. You can easily work with the search index in any way you see fit; add and remove documents to the index incrementally, import websites, the file-system or databases as you like or run programmatic searches against the index. It’s all available to you. Whether you’re writing C# or VB.NET code for a custom requirement or working with your content management system for instance, you’ll find SearchUnit is fully capable of meeting your needs.
Download a free evaluation of SearchUnit[^] today and see just how easy it can be to add search to your web applications.
About Keyoti
Keyoti have been developing software components for the Microsoft .NET and Java industry since 2002. Built on the belief that the component industry would shape the future of development, Keyoti’s textual tools are being used by millions of users across enterprises of all sizes.

SAN FRANCISCO – MAY 14, 2015 – AppDynamics, a leading application intelligence company, today announced the availability of comprehensive monitoring for Docker containers and the applications running in them. “Dockerized” applications now can benefit from the deep visibility, rapid issue resolution, and analytics capabilities of the AppDynamics Application Intelligence Platform, which is able to visualize complex, distributed applications and follow transactional data across software application environments and IT infrastructure. With application architectures increasingly incorporating microservices and Docker containerization, the deep visibility that the AppDynamics platform provides across application environments is increasingly critical, enabling quick issue resolution both in the application and the container itself.
Docker is an open platform for developers and operations teams to build, ship, and run distributed applications. A “Dockerized” application is portable and can be run anywhere, locally or in the cloud. It addresses the complications of large, distributed applications running across complex environments. Docker is finding favor as a solution for supporting and incorporating microservices into application architectures.
The AppDynamics Docker monitoring solution provides an “application-centric” view inside and across Docker containers, so performance of business transactions can be tagged, traced and monitored even as they transverse multiple containers, while also providing data and insights into the performance of the Docker container itself. The monitoring solution automatically generates a customizable dashboard that displays key metrics such as total containers versus running containers, CPU and memory utilization, and network activity. All of the functionality of the AppDynamics Application Intelligence Platform — including automatic dynamic baselining, alerting, analytics, and more — is available for Docker containers and applications.
“AppDynamics delivers advanced topology visualization to manage these new and increasingly complex architectures,” said Jonah Kowall, AppDynamics’ vice president of market development and insights. “It’s imperative to be able to trace interactions from the user through all the various application service calls and infrastructure, including processes that happen inside Docker containers. Our platform delivers visibility into Docker containers just as it does into any other application or infrastructure component. If you’re going to manage effectively, ‘end-to-end’ visibility really has to mean ‘end-to-end.’”
Bhaskar Sunkara, AppDynamics’ CTO and senior vice president of product management, said, “Docker and AppDynamics are a nearly perfect match for optimizing continuous application delivery. Docker containers bring new levels of flexibility, agility and portability to the integration process, and the AppDynamics platform enables teams to accelerate their troubleshooting and maintain the highest levels of application performance at every step, from daily integrations through delivery and deployment.”
Tweet this: #AppDynamics monitoring solution provides complete visibility into Docker containers, optimizes continuous delivery. http://bit.ly/1Fl9PjF
For more details about today’s news please read the AppDynamics blog here.
The AppDynamics Application Intelligence Platform is a comprehensive solution enabling companies to maximize business performance. The platform is designed and architected to give business users the confidence that their business is running at its best, to give IT the operational visibility and control they need, and to give end users the great experiences they’ve come to expect and demand.

Atlanta, GA May 20th 2015 – Qoppa Software’s spring release of Java® PDF library and Swing PDF component delivers improved image processing performance, rendering to custom color spaces for output preview and many annotation, redaction and form field enhancements. This release also adds a new optional PDF comparison module.
“In version 2015R1, we’ve continued to enhance and refine the interactive tools in our PDF components while adding very sophisticated image and rendering features to our PDF engine.” says Gerald Holmann, Qoppa Software President.
Qoppa’s image handling framework was redesigned to process images more efficiently in both memory and CPU usage. The new code for image processing uses a lot less memory and is able to render images of any size, with speed improvements of about 20% on average, or higher in some cases. As part of this redesign, additional features were added including the ability to render in non-RGB color spaces, such as CMYK and to simulate overprint in Qoppa’s advanced PDF editing component, jPDFEditor. Output preview and overprint simulation are sophisticated techniques used by professionals in the print and pre-press industry to preview on the screen how colors will overlap and mix when printed.
jPDFProcess’ Java API was enhanced to allow applying redaction annotations, a process also known as “burning redactions”. Opening up this function on the back-end, makes it possible for Qoppa’s customers to use Qoppa’s PDF library and PDF component together, within a client / server document workflow, to apply and burn redaction.
As usage of PDF documents increase in all industries, including publishing, energy, engineering and manufacturing, professionals have needs for comparing and reviewing multiple documents or multiple versions of the same document. Qoppa’s new PDF comparison module makes it easy to do just that. The Side by Side Comparison View displays two PDFs side by side in a synchronous scrolling view, allowing annotating or editing any of the two documents. The Overlay Comparison View superimposes two PDF documents and makes use of complementary colors to highlight differences between the documents. Switching back and forth between the two comparison views is done with the click of a button!
The user experience in Qoppa’s PDF Visual Components is enhanced with new, more modern icons and better interactive tools. Annotation tools were improved with multiple annotations editing, additional options for redaction and measuring annotations and a visual rotation handle for rubber stamps. Link and bookmark tools were also improved. A new date picker component was implemented, making it very convenient to fill in interactive date and time fields. New view options are available to display grid and rulers.
This release was also a good opportunity for Qoppa Software to perform some code cleanup and remove many obsolete classes and methods – that had been deprecated for more than 2 years – from the public API.
For more details about all the enhancements and fixes added in this release, please visit the links below:

Devart introduced the new 3.5 version of Skyvia - an online service for cloud data integration, backup and management. The new Skyvia version offers a cloud SQL client for cloud and relational data sources, and improved control of cloud source metadata cache.
Online SQL Tool
Skyvia Query allows using SQL for quering and managing cloud and relational data directly from a web browser. It allows querying data with SELECT statements and viewing query results in the browser or exporting them to CSV files, working with several queries on the same page simultaneously and performing DML statements against both cloud and relational data.
Skyvia offers full support for SQL-92 syntax for cloud sources, makes possible performing complex queries with aggregations, SQL functions, etc. against the cloud sources and getting the needed data, presented in the most informative way. Full DML support makes Skyvia a perfect tool for mass cloud data updates, and it takes care about protecting the data from user errors with preview of all the changes before actually applying them.
For databases Skyvia fully supports all the SQL they support including DDL statements if necessary, and provides an ability to access and manage the data anytime and from anywhere.
Better Cloud Metadata Cache Management
By default Skyvia caches metadata from your cloud connections and works with this cache afterwards. If a cloud object structure changed since that, this change may be ignored until the cache is refreshed.
Skyvia 3.5 offers more options for control over metadata cache refreshing and allows per-object manual cache refresh. First, user can configure the interval between refreshing a cache for a cloud connection in the connection editor and clear the connection cache on the connection details page. Second, while editing an integration package, user can refresh metadata for a cloud object in the task editor of the task that uses this object.

- APM+ is a cost-effective, lightweight agent allowing developers to have an always-on Application Performance Management solution that enables the identification of application performance issues faster than with any other service.
- APM+ gives developers continuous, real-time analysis of application behavior, and is the only solution on the market that incorporates code-level visibility with in-line log and error data.
Watch the very short teaser video
Cloud-based application performance monitoring and management provider Stackify announces the launch of their APM+ (Application Performance Management) solution for Microsoft® ASP.NET, a cost-effective solution offering real-time, code-level insights for business-critical applications. This lightweight solution requires minimal server resources while giving developers continuous code-level visibility into application behavior to improve their system’s overall performance.
Stackify’s new APM+ solution was designed to run on production servers, thus allowing developers to capture and fix application performance problems immediately instead of requiring them to spend time reproducing reported errors in order to solve them. The new APM+ moves beyond many traditional APM solutions on the market that are either too expensive or have high resource utilization, causing developers to activate them only after an issue has been reported.
APM+ gives developers an increased understanding at every level of an application’s performance and offers code-level profile traces to provide unparalleled system visibility — including method calls, log statements, cache lookups, DB queries, and web service requests. With innovative support for asynchronous (async/await) development patterns, APM+ offers developers an easy way to track performance behavior in modern ASP.NET applications that take advantage of async programming techniques.
“The new APM+ solution is an incredible addition to Stackify’s log management and application monitoring solutions. It allows us to quickly and easily identify performance issues all the way down to external calls, database queries, and even individual methods. There is simply no better tool to identify performance issues that can run in production, period,” says Michael Paterson, Principal software engineer at Carbonite, which is using APM+ as part of Stackify’s beta program.
APM+ fully integrates with Stackify’s existing application and server monitoring, and error & log management solutions. This full suite of products provides developers and IT operations professionals the industry’s most comprehensive view of the health and performance of their applications.
“The level of real-time app performance and depth of APM+ analytics is unmatched in the market. Not only does Stackify give a complete 360 degree view of how a system is spending its time and where, but it also allows developers to quickly drill down to the heart of the code and see how it can be fixed or improved,” says Stackify CTO, Jason Taylor. “Stackify’s economical APM+ can greatly improve the agility of a business, allowing developers to focus on efficiently troubleshooting bottlenecks rather than spending time identifying errors, because it shouldn’t cost more time and money to monitor your apps than to run them.”

Devart team announces the release of the new Review Assistant, v2.7. The improvements in an update focuses on facilitating external compliance code review. Now the tool allows to export code review into a printed document to share it with third parties. Another important feature is the ability to see review comments inside the built-in Visual Studio diff tool.
Review Assistant 2.7 has the following new improvements:
- Printed code review reports for companies that conduct external compliance review such as PA-DSS. The Review Assistant Reports window contains the new Code Review Details report:
- The report includes all reviews conducted over a specified time period;
- The report may be automatically divided into pages for printing;
- An option to save the report in the PDF format, as well as many other formats.
- The Code Review Board menu contains a command for individual review export.
- Review comments in Visual Studio built-in diff tool
Review Assistant provides full integration with the built-in Visual Studio diff tool. Now there is no need to have Code Compare installed to see review comments.
- The 'Resume Review' action
A reviewer may renew the code review process independently of other review participants. This may be useful when the reviewer has completed the review process and after a while would like to change his opinion.
- Smarter revision picking algorithm for a comparison
This algorithm is beneficial for users who conduct iterative code review with the help of Git or Mercurial. The new algorithm selects a file revision more accurately while reviewing changes. For the most part, this allows to separate changes of other users that could be included into the file upon code merge or as a result of significant intervals between iterations of one review.
Other Improvements:
- Group operations with a file list in a review;
- Optimized file opening;
- Faster operations with TFS;
- Improved 'pre-commit code review' check-in policy for TFS projects behavior;

Jelastic launches support for production-ready Docker, .NET/Windows, environment export/import and websockets
Jelastic, Inc., the first company that introduced a new degree of freedom in the cloud with containerization for DevOps, announced today a new version of the leading platform. Two of the most impressive new features are the production-ready release of Docker containers and .Net/Windows on top of Parallels Containers virtualization for Windows applications support, highly demanded by enterprises.
"I love the way the Jelastic weaves together so many powerful technologies. It provides a very high-level, comprehensible interface that significantly eases cloud deployments. Especially cool, the the seamless integration between private and public clouds, " said James Gosling, Father of Java and Independent Director of Jelastic.
Docker Standard
This innovation is intended to give end-users the possibility to create multi-container environments for different microservices, based on Docker templates. Jelastic´s solution for Docker application packaging standard is solving the task of application delivery and simultaneously provides orchestration of multi-container environments in public, hybrid and private clouds.
"We see a trend with companies moving towards using microservices instead of implementing a monolith architecture. With Docker support, our PaaS now gives them an even better experience!" said Joakim Öhman, CEO of Elastx.
Jelastic delivers a range of benefits that makes Dockers within the platform ready for production use:
- visual environment topology builder for microservices, based on containers
- smart clustering automation for complex applications
- automatic vertical and horizontal scaling
- deployment automation across multiple containers
- high availability of containers on the hardware level, based on software defined storage
- smart containers distribution across the hardware cluster, according to the load
- link support between containers on multiple hardware nodes
- built-in toolset for monitoring and managing container resources
As a result, using common Docker Hub Registry or custom ones enables users to easily install, run and manage any application, service or stack, achieving high stability and full orchestration.
"Without any doubt, the headline act in Jelastic 3.1 is the introduction of Docker. Once again Jelastic were ahead of the curve, and recognised the benefits of containers before mass-market adoption. So now Jelastic use that experience to deliver the optimum solution for Docker containers - solving the security/isolation caveats troubling native Docker deployments, and without the technical and performance limitations facing customers trying to run Docker inside VMs on services like AWS, Azure, and Google," said Damien Ransome, Service Director at Layershift.
In addition, CoreOS Enterprise Registry based on Quay is available for Jelastic Enterprise customers who want to run their own Docker registry. Enterprise Registry includes a rich UI, access control lists, and powerful tools for teams collaborating with containers behind customers´ firewalls and within their datacenter.
"We noticed a high level of interest in containers from our customers, because it provides extreme flexibility for DevOps teams. We are delighted to announce a major improvement in our production ready multi-container orchestration platform, that delivers a highly secure solution for Docker containers," said Ruslan Synytsky, CEO of Jelastic.
Windows Containers
Another important milestone in the Jelastic Platform evolution, presented in this release, is implementation of Windows containers´ support, which provides companies with an ability to host web services, that are run on the Windows operating system, inside the cloud. Within the confines of this prominent feature, the following servers became available for the newly added .NET programming language, enabling easier automation of deployment:
- Internet Information Services (IIS) 8.0 application server for handling .NET apps, which supports both Microsoft´s .NET framework and ASPX scripts
- Microsoft 2012 SQL Server (Express edition), intended for storing data and managing SQL databases with the help of Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
- Windows VPS server with the pure Windows Server 2012 OS (and 2008 version optionally installed)
- Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) access to containers providing remote control over Windows environments
"I am very impressed that Jelastic decided to choose both container platforms from Parallels and now uses containers for Windows, as well as Linux," said Alexey Kobets, VP of Server Virtualization, Parallels.
Environment Export and Import
The current Jelastic release includes one more feature, which exempts customers from any lock-in: Environment Export/Import. It allows easy migration of the hosted applications between different Jelastic installations. A user simply needs to export environments and import them to the preferred platform. During the export, all of the information about the environment topology and application settings is packed into a single .json file. After that, a user can seamlessly import the received file to the target platform, and quickly get an identical ready-to-work environment.
WebSockets
Jelastic version 3.1 provides advanced and improved WebSockets support. This technology has been integrated to the Jelastic Shared Load Balancer, so for now, websockets can be used even without the need to buy an external IP address.
Additional improvements and features in Jelastic version 3.1:
- Certified containers of GlassFish 4 & WildFly 8 with advanced automation
- Support of Internationalized Domain Names (IDN) and Generic Top-Level Domains (gTLD)
- 3rd Parties Add-ons Support Advancements
Planned features to be implemented in 2015 Currently Jelastic team is actively working on the integration of Rocket, the container technology from CoreOS, that is the next evolutionary version of a container with security, composability and reliability. Rocket is the first implementation of the Application Container spec, which defines an image format, image discovery mechanism and execution environment that can exist in several independent implementations.
Jelastic plans to move forward in the direction of Rocket and support the Application Container spec, together with the CoreOS team. The team believes that a strong focus on the application container standard will expedite the next stage of the container evolution.
"It is wonderful to have Jelastic providing CoreOS Enterprise Registry to customers, integrating Rocket and throwing their support behind the Application Container spec," said Alex Polvi, CEO of CoreOS. "By providing support of the Application Container spec, Jelastic is showing their commitment to giving customers the most secure and interoperable container environment."
In addition, Jelastic team is polishing the implementation of multi-region support within the cloud, or across several different clouds. The intended outcome is a hybrid cloud and isolation of various user groups/workloads in a variety of regions.

Flare 11.0 Features Next-Gen Frameless Output, Embedded YouTube and Vimeo, 3D Graphics, Augmented Reality, Absolute Positioning, Import of Doc-To-Help Word-Based Content, Git Integration and More
La Jolla, CA, USA – March 17, 2015 – MadCap Software, Inc., the leader in multi-channel content authoring and a showcase company for Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) Visual Studio, today announced that MadCap Flare 11.0 is now available. Flare, MadCap’s flagship software, is the most advanced single-source, multi-channel authoring and publishing solution available today, supporting the ability to publish to a number of devices and formats including print, Web, desktop and mobile.
MadCap Flare 11.0 introduces a new industry paradigm by adding the ability to break the traditional tri-pane delivery of online Help and technical content delivery and giving technical authors the ability to publish out-of-the-box "frameless" output for HTML5 that more closely resembles a modern, SEO-optimized, and completely customizable informational website.
Flare 11.0 also adds Universal 3D (U3D) format support for adding realistic, interactive images to output; the ability to embed YouTube and Vimeo movies directly into Flare output; and integration with Metaio Creator to support augmented reality—the ability to scan any content element with a mobile device and display any type of additional material and graphics, including interactive 3D models and animations.
At the same time, new features in MadCap Flare 11.0 enhance the content author’s experience and authoring efficiency. These include the ability to build output targets while creating content; absolute positioning to control where graphics and other images are placed within text simply by dragging and dropping them; and PDF stitching that allows authors to combine several existing PDF files into one cohesive PDF file.
Additionally, Flare 11.0 provides integration with MadCap Software’s latest software acquisition, Doc-To-Help, the market’s leading Microsoft Word-based authoring tool for multi-channel publishing. Also included in Flare 11.0 are features for expanded content management and team authoring through enhanced support for various source control applications as well as integration with Git.
“Multi-channel publishing is rapidly gaining mainstream adoption as more companies aim to synchronize content across multiple devices and deliver content to meet users’ expectations in a modern, informational website-type format,” said Anthony Olivier, MadCap founder and CEO. “We have been delivering on that commitment with MadCap Flare, first by fostering the evolution from .CHM to WebHelp and then to traditional tri-pane HTML5. Now with Flare 11.0, we are pioneering the next industry standard of online technical content delivery with frameless, informational website output that matches a user’s website and optimizes navigation, usability and SEO. At the same time, Flare 11.0 continues to advance its industry-leading approach to single-source, multi-channel publishing of content to users’ channels of choice, from print to the Web, mobile devices, desktops, and embedded in software.”
Communications Professionals Cite Flare 11.0 Advantages
“Flare 11.0 changes everything with the introduction of a top navigation HTML5 output. Designed to look more like a modern website, the output is gorgeous,” said Patrick Calnan, technical writer. “MadCap Software even includes useful templates that you can customize to help you migrate your previous tri-pane HTML5 targets to the new model.”
“I’m thrilled that Flare 11.0 gives me the tools I need to break free of the tri-pane interface for HTML5 output, something my clients have been clamoring for,” said Nita Beck, consultant and owner of Nita Beck Communications. I’m equally thrilled that Flare 11.0 supports Git, another popular wish from my clients.”
MadCap Flare 11.0 Adds New Features to Give Users a Modern, Interactive Experience – Online and in Print
Responsive, Website-Like HTML5 Output
Version 11.0 builds MadCap Flare’s HTML5 output capabilities to enable the creation of “frameless” HTML5 output that more closely resembles a modern website. By departing from the more traditional tri-pane Help output, authors can deliver online guides and Help systems that complement the look and feel of their main websites. Flare 11.0 also includes templates to help authors customize and migrate their previous tri-pane HTML5 targets to the new model.
Additionally, the responsive design functionality first introduced in 2014 with Flare 10.0 has been enhanced in Flare 11.0 with the “device-width media queries” feature. This allows authors to more readily design their output to have the display change based on whether the screen used belongs to a computer, tablet, or mobile phone.
Universal 3D Output
MadCap Flare now supports U3D files for 3D modeling, which allows authors to create PDF and Web outputs featuring realistic, interactive images. Writers can add 3D models to their PDF and online outputs working with the same workflows they would use to add other multimedia types. Additionally, authors can embed a 3D model in a topic or snippet, or link to the model using a hyperlink.
Embedded Videos
With MadCap Flare 11.0, writers can now add YouTube and Vimeo movies to Web-based outputs, whether they are movies stored on these sites by the organization or third-party movies from these providers. Movies from YouTube and Vimeo can be embedded into a topic or snippet, providing the ability to use advanced settings to determine whether a movie will play automatically and what kind of information to display on the movie. Movies also can be hyperlinked, so that a movie is only played when a user clicks on the text and is sent to the host’s website to view the movie.
Support for Augmented Reality
With version 11.0, MadCap Flare becomes the first technical authoring tool to add support for augmented reality, making it easier than ever for end-users to access supplemental information. Through integration with Metaio Creator, Flare-based content can allow users to scan an element of content with a mobile device and access additional material—such as audio, video, 3D models, or animations—from another source. The augmented reality is presented as an image that is embedded in Flare-based content and then exported to Metaio Creator.
MadCap Flare 11.0 Delivers New Features For Empowering Content Authors With Greater Efficiency and Control
Concurrent Builds
In previous releases of MadCap Flare, authors could build output either in the user interface or in the background via Madbuild, Flare's compilation engine, in the command line. Flare 11.0 introduces a new option: the ability to build output in the background via Madbuild in the user interface. Quicker and easier than using the command line, this new functionality enables authors to continue working in their projects while generating one or more targets behind the scenes. Significantly, authors can also limit or expand the number of targets that can be generated in the background at the same time, providing control over computer resource demands.
Absolute Positioning
Absolute positioning in Flare 11.0 gives authors unprecedented control over where content elements—including images, HTML div tags, paragraphs, and more—appear in a topic for PDF or online output. Absolute positioning can be accomplished via styles or locally by selecting text wrap options in a context (right-click) menu of the XML Editor. Authors can specify an element’s location and resize it. Additionally, writers can use the z-index property in conjunction with absolute positioning to drag and drop an element exactly where they want it to appear within the text.
PDF Stitching
Through the PDF Stitching feature, authors can now stitch existing PDFs into one cohesive output target simply by adding links to them in a table of contents (TOC). The functionality is supported in PDF output and all of the online targets available with Flare.
Doc-To-Help Integration
MadCap Flare 11.0 adds integration to Doc-To-Help, the software for multichannel publishing of Microsoft Word-based content that MadCap Software acquired earlier this year, giving customers greater flexibility to use both products. Authors can now create new projects by importing Doc-To-Help files (with a .d2h extension) with a few mouse-clicks using either Flare’s Ribbon or Tool Strip view.
Expanded Source Control
MadCap Flare 11.0 extends source control support to include integration with the Git distributed version control system, enabling authors to perform day-to-day source control operations, such as check-in, checkout, and change history without leaving Flare. In addition to native support for Git, Flare offers native support for Microsoft Team Foundation Server, Microsoft Visual SourceSafe, Apache Subversion (SVN), and Perforce. Flare also allows authors to use third-party plug-ins to support other source control solutions.
Other key features in MadCap Flare 11.0 include:
* New functionality for creating customized keyboard shortcuts.
* New Quick Launch tool direct access to start the builds of targets.
* New Pinning feature for displaying frequently used projects, fonts, styles and more to the top of the list for fast access.
* Enhancements to existing capabilities, including Accept Contribution Wizard, cross-references, dictionaries and spell checking, electronic publication (EPUB) support, file list, font properties, image and image-map, print-based output, search, slideshows, snippets, styles, Target Editor and Batch Target Editor, variables, and XML Editor.
Flare With MadPak Suite for a Seamless Experience
MadCap Flare is part of MadPak, the industry’s most comprehensive technical authoring suite and the only one featuring six fully integrated, XML-based products to create a seamless experience for documentation professionals, translators, and other content authors. For example:
