HiT Software Launches Graphical Workflow Tool with Allora Version 5, Market Leader in Bi-Directional Transformation Between XML and Any Database

SAN JOSE, CALIFORNIA - March 27, 2007 - HiT Software, a leading provider of real-time data integration, data synchronization, and data access products today announced the availability of Allora version 5, an easy-to-use set of design-time tools and a run-time engine enabling secure XML to database mapping and bi-directional transformation.

With Allora 5, HiT Software introduces the Allora Workflow Manager, a graphical layout environment designed for creating, scheduling and executing a group of RDB-XML transformation and related XML file management tasks.

The Workflow Manager has a Design and a Runtime component. The Design tab provides a workspace for adding tasks, setting parameters and organizing tasks in execution order. The Runtime tab provides detailed explanation of the results of performing transformations in the workflow.

This unique combination of Mapper and Workflow Manager allows a user to map even the most sophisticated XML schemas, such as JusticeXML or HL7, and to deploy the solution without writing one line of code. With the release of Allora Workflow Manager, the Allora Suite solidifies its leadership in bridging XML and databases, regardless of the database platform.

"With Allora Workflow Manager we have filled a market need for a graphical tool to design, schedule and run complex XML-RDB transformations," said Giacomo Lorenzin, CEO of HiT Software. "Now companies can use a single product, Allora, to implement processes that allow XML to be the lingua franca for data exchange but still rely on corporate databases to store the data."

Allora 5 is certified to work with 19 different databases, from the most common ones such as Oracle, DB2, Microsoft SQL Server, and MySQL to others used in vertical applications.
