Beaverton, Oregon-based Paradigma Software, Inc, the developers of the ultra-fast database Valentina, announces the availability of Valentina Server Linux Edition beta 1 for immediate download.

Valentina is a pioneering database system that, built on a unique object-relational model, outperforms almost all commercially available database servers – disk based or RAM based. Recent customer provided data compares equivalent search operations with mySQL server at five minutes to complete, down to five seconds with Valentina Server. Hours become minutes, minutes become seconds with Valentina.

Valentina database products, available on Windows and MacOS X, are based on the unique Valentina database engine – an object-relational database engine known for extreme speed. When porting to Valentina, hours become minutes, minutes become seconds when it comes to storing, retrieving and querying databases. Valentina supports all modern standards – native Unicode, XML import/export and ODBC connectivity.
