June 30, 2005 (Press Release) --
Santa Barbara, CA – June 30, 2005 – Versora announced today a European republishing partnership with Questar for its Windows to Linux migration software tools: Progression Desktop, Progression DB and Progression Web.
“The consideration for migrating to Linux is significant in Europe due to the highly publicized City of Munich migration project,” notes Questar CEO David Orban. “The amount of organizations that are engaging in desktop or data center migrations is compounding each month and we feel Versora’s automated migration tools will ease the transition to Linux.”
Progression Desktop is an enterprise-ready tool that migrates data and settings from Windows desktops to Linux desktops in a predictable and repeatable fashion. Progression Desktop automates the migration of data, email, user settings, office productivity suites, music, pictures, instant messaging, and Internet browsers.
“Questar understands Linux and how it complements a Windows environment,” notes Versora CEO Mike Sheffey. “We are pleased to partner with a company that not only has an established European customer base, but also Linux domain expertise.”
Winner of a Linux Product Excellence Award at the recent LinuxWorld Boston Conference & Expo, Progression DB automates the migration from Microsoft SQL Server to databases running on Linux including MySQL, PostgreSQL and Ingres r3.
Questar will also be distributing Versora’s Progression Web which automates the migration from Microsoft IIS Web Server to Apache on Linux.
“Given Microsoft IIS Web Server’s costly licensing fees, security vulnerabilities and lack of flexibility, there has already been a massive migration to Apache web servers,” notes Sheffey. "Progression Web provides companies an automated method of quickly and accurately moving websites to the highly stable and secure Apache environment.”
