PowerDesigner Modular Packaging

PowerDesigner is available in the following configurations:

DataArchitectAddresses the needs of the most discriminating Data Modelers and DBAs. DataArchitect offers requirements management and full data analysis and comprehensive multi-level design techniques with round-trip engineering and detailed design capabilities for nearly 60 RDBMS vendor/versions.

Developer – Addresses the needs of the Object Modeling community with requirements management and full analysis and design support for the Unified Modeling Language (UML). PowerDesigner Developer includes features to improve developer productivity for Java (and J2EE), C#,VB.NET, XML and PowerBuilder users. Developer can plug into popular development tools for tight model-to-code synchronization.

Studio – Addresses the needs of the Enterprise Modeling community (IT Management and Business Management) that needs to maintain a single center of control over all meta-data. Studio offers a model driven approach to align business and IT. Combining all the technical modeling in DataArchitect and Developer and extending into Business Modeling, Studio streamlines communication and collaboration across the enterprise.

Viewer – Addresses the need for documentation teams, higher-level technical managers or other users to access all of the PowerDesigner tools without requiring a full PowerDesigner license. Viewer is a read only tool that can access any PowerDesigner model, retrieve any model from the Enterprise Repository, print models, and create reports. Viewer is available free of charge from http://www.sybase.com/products/powerdesigner.
