Introducing a new product that will assist Linux users by creating
automatically arranged entity relationship diagrams.

Database Illustrator(tm) is an easy-to-use documentation tool for Oracle 6
or Oracle 7 databases. Utilizing information stored in your database, DBI
produces informative diagrams showing the actual structure of your database
application.

With DBI, you are able to more clearly visualize and communicate the
structure of your physical database.  It can be used throughout the
application development life cycle, including the application analysis,
design, construction, implementation, and maintenance phases of the project.

DBI makes it very easy to produce entity relationship diagrams (ERDs) for
part or all of an application database.  It eliminates the tedium of laying
out entities and routing relationship lines, a time-consuming task which
must be performed separately for each new diagram.  For this reason, many
projects do not use these diagrams and design information is inadequately
communicated to members of the project team.

DBI eliminates the problem of entity layout.  It automatically arranges the
diagram in an easy-to-read and logical manner.  This allows analysts,
designers, managers, and programmers to stay focused on their respective
tasks and allows them to share and discuss relevant parts of the model
throughout the implementation effort.

DBI requires a PC or compatible running DOS with 640K base memory, an
Oracle 6 or Oracle 7 database, SQL*Plus or SQR, and a Postscript printer.
Foreign key constraints must be defined for all tables in the application.

The Database Illustrator program is available in Linux, MS-DOS, Unix, and
VAX/VMS.  A special introductory price of $149 for each licensed version is
effective through August 15, 1994.  Orders placed after that date will cost
$249 per licensed version.
