We Are Excited to Announce the General Availability of DB PowerStudio 18.8

by Nov 19, 2024

IDERA’s DB PowerStudio continues to provide a powerful cross-platform toolset for database development, tuning, and management. With the release of version 18.8, we’ve introduced a range of exciting enhancements to improve security, flexibility, performance, and reporting for our users.

New Benefits DB PowerStudio Users Will Receive Version 18.8

Enhanced Security Authorizations for DBArtisan and Rapid SQL

DBArtisan and Rapid SQL users can now leverage multi-factor authentication (MFA) using Microsoft Entra, formerly Azure Active Directory (AD), when connecting to PostgreSQL Cloud. This integration ensures that users gain the enhanced security policies and procedures of Microsoft Entra and simplifies access by requiring password entry only once.

Enhanced Flexibility in DBArtisan and Rapid SQL

We’ve optimized the query results view for SQL Server queries, enabling more efficient LOB (Large Object) data extraction. This enhancement allows customers to adjust LOB data size as needed, offering greater flexibility in managing complex datasets.

Improved Sybase Performance in DB Change Manager

For users working with Sybase, the DB Change Manager has been enhanced to allow default values to be assigned to columns and to adjust special permissions. These updates ensure consistency across schemas, making schema management smoother and more reliable.

Expanded Reporting Capabilities in DB Change Manager and DB Optimizer

Reporting functionality has been extended to include output parameters in PDF and HTML formats. This improvement simplifies sharing reports with multiple users, making collaboration and documentation more efficient.
