• Platform support for all 64-bit editions of Windows
• Use newer hardware - with more memory and address space, up to 4TB cache will become a significant advantage
• Support for AMD and Intel 64-bit processors
3. Easier Extreme I/O - Accelerated Database Performance:
• Accelerates the I/O of your database files.  Extreme I/O takes advantage of SMP (symmetric multi processing) for applications with large data sets, reducing the time required for reads and writes
• For large data sets, high percentage of random writes, and data that can be significantly compressed
• Minimize processor contention and maximize memory capacity
4. Upgraded Install - PSQL Summit V11 is so easy to install:
• Macrovision designed specifically for PSQL Summit V11

• We've added long metadata support for up to 128 byte lengths for columns, names, views, stored procedures and more
• Improves SQL Server compatibility
• PSQL V11 includes a metadata conversion utility to make the transition simpler and faster
• Reduced overhead and less custom code for multi-database platform suppport
6. Redesigned DDF Builder - Faster with Long Metadata Support:
• DDF Builder now ships with PSQL V11, no separate installation required
• Supportsd long metadata and allows creation of new DDF's
• Creates robust SQL defenition files for business intelligence and data analysis
7. New Page and Record Compression - Improves Application Performance:
• Reduce speed and I/O requirements and speed up your application.  Pervasive PSQL V11 compresses contiguous characters, shrinking I/O and increasing performance
• By compressing data at the page level (instead of the file level), Pervasive PSQL V11 reduces application I/O.  Pages are decompressed and placed in cache for reads, and compressed for writes
• Great for applications with frequent reads and few writes
8. Backward Compatibility - No Rewrites Required for Adoption:

• 10 years of backward compatibility
• Compatible file formats back to Btrieve 6.15
• Seamless migration from prior versions

9. Improved Security - Permissions on Views and Stored Procedures - Digitally Signed Executables:

• Greater control and security within your application from improved functionality for controlling permissions for views and stored procedures
• Digitally signed executables
• Protect files from unauthorized access and malicious use

10. Microsoft .NET 2.0 Framework - Improves Performance and Feature Set:

• .NET and Visual Studio 2005 support
• Full support for scheme metadata
