PumpItUp«! Enterprise

PumpItUp« 3.0 is the only tool that allows you to both generate and convert data simultaneously. To help with your current data conversion or generation needs, we have opened The PumpItUp Service Bureau. The Service Bureau can assist in your migration, generation, or replication requirements.

PumpItUp« 3.0 is a database migration and testing tool that delivers large-scale functionality and performance with small-scale cost. It is the only product that allows users to migrate and generate data simultaneously.

PumpItUp 3.0« enables database administrators -- and ordinary people with no programming experience at all -- to test their databases by populating them with large amounts of realistic data. PumpItUp« users shake down database performance and stability risks before their databases are in actual use -- so the days of discovering a database's weaknesses only as it fills with vital data are over. PumpItUp« allows users to put a database through its paces in a controlled environment, without risking mission-critical data and real-world performance in the process.

PumpItUp 3.0« is also a robust data migration tool, offering users the chance to migrate large amounts of data from legacy databases into new applications. In the past, companies seeking to migrate large amounts of data were forced to write costly, time-consuming throwaway code. PumpItUp« 3.0 was designed to simplify and streamline data migration and eliminate the need for expensive, custom throwaway applications.

And PumpItUp 3.0 is also a vital Year 2000 compliance testing tool, offering the opportunity to test Y2K solutions with large volumes of test data. PumpItUp also enables users to reformat date fields and fill in missing parts of dates, which can convert to and from most common date formats. For example, convert 2-digit year values to the proper 4-digit year values.

Users can evaluate OS, database and applications vendors to see how they actually perform with custom-configured test databases of tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of records. No promises, no guarantees, and no past success stories can substitute for real-life performance evaluations using full-sized databases of made-to-specs test data.
