Springville, UT -- 14 August 2012 -- theKompany.com, producers and 
distributors of high-quality open source and commercial Linux software, 
are pleased to announce the release of DataArchitect 4.3.

DataArchitect is a powerful tool that provides ERD capability like 
PowerDesigner as well as the ability to graphically reverse engineer, 
create and modify a database through ODBC and perform advanced SQL 
functions. For a single price you get all the supported platforms, Linux 
(32, 64 bit and PowerPC), Solaris, Windows (32 and 64 bit) and Mac OS X. 
Discover what database professionals have known for years - that 
enterprise databases are designed with enterprise modeling tools. Why 
has this been a secret for so many? Why do so many labor with buckets 
full of error prone, undocumented, SQL? Well it seems no one has been 
able to pack the features of a quality data modeling tool into a product 
at an accessible price - not until now.

Data Architect is an emerging enterprise tool for designing databases at 
all levels of an organization using the same concepts found in tools 
costing thousands of dollars!
