ANTs Software Delivers the Perfect Prescription for Database and Application Migration to Large European Healthcare Provider(2)

Migrate Highly Complex Applications Quickly with IBM®
DB2® SQL Skin for applications compatible with Sybase
ASE

SAN FRANCISCO—December 8, 2010– One of
Europe’s largest and most advanced medical facilities will
implement a sophisticated application and database migration
strategy with the help of ANTs software inc. (OTCBB:ANTS), a
leader in database consolidation solutions and
IBM® DB2® SQL Skin for applications compatible with Sybase
ASE (IBM DB2 SQL Skin). ANTs Software, IBM and IBM business
partner, SuadaSoft, are working
together to help the forward-thinking teaching hospital migrate a
highly complex and critical application from Sybase ASE 12.5 to IBM
DB2 across seven locations. Initial 2010 beta tests and technology
evaluation successes are translating into a 2011 deployment of IBM
DB2 SQL Skin across the entire enterprise.

An innovative DB2 migration technology built on ANTs
Compatibility Server (ACS), IBM DB2 SQL Skin helps companies
accelerate the migration of
applications from one database management system (DBMS) to
another.

“ANTs database consolidation technology is changing
the existing DBMS migration paradigm by accelerating initiatives,
reducing legacy maintenance costs and making it possible for end
users to utilize business applications without
disruption,” said Joseph Kozak, chairman and CEO, ANTs
software, inc. “Visionary organizations like this
international medical center are discovering that Sybase is not a
viable enterprise platform in the long term and proving that
database migration can be easy, efficient and flexible with the use
of IBM DB2 SQL Skin.”

With more than 2000 beds and 8500 staff, this large European
healthcare provider is renowned for its high-quality healthcare,
accessibility and forward-looking technology strategy.

The hospital’s most critical application, its patient
records, is a large, complicated Java application on Sybase with
over 2,000 connected users daily. This application also
happens to run on the first Sybase installation in Europe.

The hospital’s IT team recognized the legacy
infrastructure was insufficient to support the copious amount of
data the organization will generate when it doubles the size of its
campus to over 4,500 beds. With minimal operational impact,
significant cost reductions and measurable performance
improvements, the medical center is enabling this application to
run on IBM DB2 reducing complexity, eliminating database overlap
and dramatically reducing data storage requirements.

“The IT team needed a database management system that
would grow, remain technically robust and have longevity as an
enterprise platform,” said Luc Vandaele, CEO, SuadaSoft.
“Just before they launched a complete manual migration of
their patient records system, the hospital IT department learned
that with IBM DB2 and IBM DB2 SQL Skin migration they could cut the
amount of time spent on migrating to another DBMS 10 times
over. Operational and capital expenses are going to drop
dramatically while their efficiency and performance will increase
exponentially.”

The existing Sybase DBMS has over 2 Terabytes of storage, 20k+
stored procedures that equal over 1.1 million lines of Sybase SQL
code and 30,000 Sybase objects to migrate every week with the
release of new software. Using IBM DB2 SQL Skin for
applications compatible with Sybase ASE, the medical center
eliminates the need to maintain more than a single code base while
migrating or invest in expensive upgrades and specialized
personnel.
