With all that is going on in the world today, it amazing to see these changes. Whether you a for them or against them or just want status quo, we live in changing times. This reminds me a quote by comedian George Burns: "It's hard for me to get use to the changing times. I can remember when the air was clean and sex was dirty."
There is a lot of things that are changing in our U2 World, but are the evolutionary or revolutionary. There is a new tool like U2DataVU that builds on it sister tool that Rocket Software created a few years ago. But the question remains, it is evolutionary or revolutionary. This tool is no different that BIRT that has been around for years. U2DataVu is an extension of current technology not intensive breakthrough.
We, at U2logic, just finished upgrading our XLr8Resizer to reduce the complexity and take advantage of the Eclipse framework more. This was definitely a extension of the technology and there was nothing revolutionary here.
But it got us to thinking. Have we merely extended the technology of Universe and Unidata to the Eclipse IDE to allow non-administrator types and those that do not have in depth understanding of U2 files, the ability to resize files. Of course, the answer is yes. Did we make it affordable? Of course the answer is yes.
We think our approach is revolutionary. This is nothing to load in Unidata or Universe. Just download the tool and point to your U2 files and you are ready to go. Nonetheless, unless you give it a try, we won't know for sure whether this is our revolution of the pain of resizing the U2 databases.
