JTurbo 2005 Released

Now supports Microsoft SQL Server 2005

Alpharetta, GA - November 7, 2005 - New Atlanta Communications, a leading producer of server-side technologies and Gold Certified Microsoft Partner, announced the immediate availability of JTurbo 2005, the newest release of its Type 4 JDBC Driver for Microsoft SQL Server®. JTurbo 2005 supports SQL Server 2005 as well as Java J2SE 5.0.

A Type 4 driver that is J2EE™ certified by Sun Microsystems®, JTurbo allows users to connect to Microsoft's SQL Server from Java applets or applications running on any major operating system, including Windows, Unix, Linux and Mac OS. JTurbo offers the highest degree of platform independence, performance and deployment administration for database connectivity provided under Sun's JDBC specification. Type 4, or "pure Java," JDBC drivers convert JDBC calls to the native protocol used by the database vendor, communicating directly with the database server without requiring native code.

"After rigorous testing, we're pleased to be able to offer a high-performance, robust, and reliable product to our customers, helping them to take advantage of Microsoft's newest SQL Server release," said Paul Bonfanti, co-founder and Vice President of Engineering for New Atlanta.

Features

A mature driver, JTurbo has been in production since 1998. New Atlanta has continued to enhance and improve its features in keeping with customer requests and current JDK, JDBC and SQL Server releases, with the goal of making JTurbo the best engineered, most reliable and highest performing driver available.
