The Problem:
Your customer has a huge database with many gigabytes of data. The customer
needs fast random access to their data. Unfortunately, because RAM for the
database server process is limited to 2 gigabytes (or 3 gigabytes in certain
circumstances) there is a hard limit on how much data your database server can
keep in RAM at any one time. This results in a general slow down of the system
even though more physical RAM is or can be made available and your customer is
unhappy.
The Solution:
Use NexusDB Server AWE edition. This edition is a normal win-32 executable
that runs on any recent Windows OS. When present in the OS, it will make use
of AWE (address windowing extensions) APIs that allow the process to access
all the RAM in the machine. You could for instance run NexusDB Server AWE
edition on a 16 gigabytes RAM, 8 core server, and dedicate 12 gigabytes of RAM
to the database server. Your customer will be able to make full use of their
powerful hardware.
The best part of the NexusDB Serer AWE edition is that it is a drop-in
replacement for our normal NexusDB Database Server. You do not have to change
your NexusDB client applications; all you need to do is have your client
install the AWE edition of the server.
Licensing of the NexusDB Server AWE edition is per machine. This model has
been chosen so that you, the developer, can recoup the cost of the license
from your client, or even to allow the client to upgrade the backend of your
application on their own.
The license cost is $1000.- for single licenses, volume rebates are available
on request.

You can order the AWE edition NOW at:

Or alternatively reply to this message with full name or company name to
request a time limited trial version and key.
NexusDB Server AWE edition brings you the possibilities of 64-bit computing to
your Win-32 *or* Win-64 operating system NOW!
We trust that this brand new version will help you to stay in front of your
competitors by allowing you to make use of all the available hardware
resources instead of being restricted by current technology. Don't live in the
past; 640Kb isnt even enough for Mum's shopping list and 2Gb hardly for your
movies collection. ;)
