While working together with one of the Configuration Management market leaders, the following technologies for Windows, Linux and Solaris have been developed: remote information acquisition and analysis tools, system administration and setup software.

The systems support Windows XP, 2000, 2000 Server и Server 2003, Domain Environment, Linux, Solaris, as well as MS IIS, Apache, MS Office, Exchange, VMWare etc. The solutions based on the Windows server platform make it possible to handle multiple tasks at once, provide the administrator with remote access via the Web console for system configuration analusis and updates.

Alex Bakman,
Founder and CEO

«Ecora has been working with RMCSoft since November 2003. During this time the RMCSoft team has successfully implemented a number of projects on remote administration of large-scale computer systems.

This work required an exceptionally high level of expertise at all stages of design, development, quality assurance and technical support.

I recommend RMCSoft as a highly proficient developer and a reliable software vendor for long-term contracts.»

Kernel of the system for storing extra-large amounts of data

RELEX has taken part in several ADIC projects: Volserv, Fileserv, StorNext. The Volserv product is used to manage libraries of tape-drives and disks. In the course of the project, Volserv was ported from Ingres to Linter.

Fileserv is an HSM: using the capabilities of the dmapi file system interface, it exports files that are infrequently used from the disk to the tape, and imports them when the user is trying to access them. In the original version, the fileserv metadata was stored in the DB Vista (Raima data manager) database. The RELEX team ported fileserv to Linter.

StorNext, a new ADIC product, contains enhanced versions of volserv and fileserv in one package. The system uses RDBMS Linter SQL. The package runs on UNIX on RISC systems (Irix, Solaris).

Besides porting the system to Linter, the following work has been carried out for the StorNext project: the StorNext database backup; StorNext tape reading utility development; building a utility for converting the fileserv, volserv and amass databases to StorNext.

AMASS

From the user's point of view, AMASS is an extra-large virtual file system. Technically, this is implemented by buffering frequently used data in the disk cache and loading the data blocks that are seldom used to the tape or a magnetooptical disk. To store the metadata, the original version of AMASS uses the network DBMS DB Vista. AMASS runs on various UNIX platforms (HP_UX, Solaris, Irix).

The work on AMASS has been carried out in two directions:

1. In cooperation with INEUM, AMASS was ported to FreeBSD, as well as from DB Vista to Linter, and new features that were not present in the original AMASS version (such as file versions) were developed. The work lasted a year, and a steadily operating version of the system was created.
2. The original version of AMASS was enhanced. In particular, the database checking program was improved, new functionality was added, and the operation of the system was optimized.

ADIC NDMP Server

This is a research project focusing on the development of the backup serverfor PC on Linux supporting the NDMP standard for making backup copies on the tape. A working prototype supporting various protocol versions was developed and checked for compatibility with available commercial products for backup (Veritas NetBackup).

ADIC Virtual Library

This virtual library is a server communicating with clients via the iSCSI protocol (SCSI via ip).

The library emulates a system of commands of various tape-drives (AIT2, DLT-7000 and LTO have been implemented) and a hardware tape library.

A prototype has been created and tested with commercial backup products (Legato NetWorker, Veritas NetBackup) and HSM (AMASS for NT).

Paul Rutherford,
Vice President Software Engineering ADIC

«On behalf of ADIC, I certify that we use the Linter database in one of our products and are in the process of converting all products to Linter. The database is performing satisfactorily and the support has met our expectations.»

Remote learning system development

A universal remote learning system was developed by us for AlignMark, Inc. This system makes it possible to create learning and testing programs for various areas of knowledge. The system is a set of tools for developing and managing such testing primitives as questions, learning content, various media resources (text, images, audio- and video-resources, URLs etc.), the system's reactions to the user's answers, as well as tests and courses based on existing and newly created primitives. This is a powerful and flexible environment enabling the developer to create learning and testing programs in various areas of knowledge.

Mike Vaughn,
President AlignMark, Inc.

«We have used, and continue to use Relex's application development services. Their engineers and management have proven to be flexible and imaginative in working through the various design and development stages of several projects.»

Semantic SQL

In 2000, High Performance Database Research Center (HPDRC) at FIU (Florida International University) became interested in our experience in the development of relational databases and program interfaces for them. The object was to create program interfaces and language access facilities (Semantic SQL) for the object DBMS «Semantic DB».

In 2000 - 2002, the following features were developed by the RELEX team: the Semantic SQL language interface; the ODBC and JDBC program interfaces; facilities for working with several distributed Semantic DB databases; visual environment for mapping the relational schema to the object schema; the Semantic Wrapper ODBC driver for addressing queries in the Semantic SQL format to the relational database.

Semantic DB, together with the components implemented by RELEX, has been used by HPDRC in NASA projects, scientific data storage and processing solutions, knowledge bases etc.

Naphtali D. Rishe,
Director

«We have used the Development Services of Relex for several projects related to our Semantic Object Database Management System. Their performance has met our highest expectations in terms of both the product and execution.»

Web-oriented information and reference system

In 1995, Lucent Technologies became one of the first overseas clients of RELEX. The traveler's information and reference system based on Linter was designed and implemented for this company.

Using this system, people traveling in different countries can get information about the optimum routes, the transport timetables, the hotel costs etc.

Robert L. Burge,
Associate Travel Specialist

«On behalf of Lucent Technologies, Inc., I certify that the Corporate Travel Group uses the Linter database on its travel web server, and that said database performs satisfactorily.»

Toshiba American business solutions

Printer driver development

The rapid development of the Linux platform in the recent years lead to some problems associated with the absence of full support from some leading software companies. Toshiba American Business Solutions was faced with a similar situation. The task was to develop a NetWare component for a new printer line to show a printer connected to a Linux machine as a NetWare print-server.

The main difficulty was that Novell provides development tools only for DOS and Win32, and does not document internal NDS components. There is a Novell client in Linux, but its capabilities were obviously not enough.

The implementation of this complex project was carried out by the RELEX team. In the course of the project, a fully functional version of the printer driver with native SPX support was developed. Since the documentation obtained from Novell was insufficient for this purpose, part of the required information was found out through reengineering. The project was successfully completed within the time frames set by the customer.
