4th Dimension 2004.3 integrates mirroring

4D today released 4th Dimension 2004.3, its cross platform database program with enhanced data recovery capabilities. The update offers an integrated mirroring system, debug logging capabilities, and numerous bug fixes to the popular database solution. Data mirroring provides a sophisticated backup system for data redundancy and recovery, where administrators can utilize a second computer that mirrors the data on the operational database on the main computer. The mirror periodically updates itself to keep pace with the operational database, while the new and more flexible system provides developers increased programmatic control to fully automate database maintenance. The advanced Debug Log Recording, which provides a new level of testing and debugging, allows developers to retrieve detailed information such as execution time and memory, which is used when running 4D commands, form events, and methods. The update is free for 4D 2004 users, while 4D 2004.3 is available from $350 and requires Mac OS X 10.2.8 or later.
