Embarcadero Selected as 2009 SD Times 100 Award Winner for Innovative Contributions to Software Development Community

Embarcadero wins for Database & Data Tools and Tools & IDEs categories

SAN FRANCISCO – June 16, 2009 – Embarcadero Technologies, Inc. is the proud recipient of two 2009 SD Times 100 awards based on its demonstrated innovation and leadership in the software development community, specifically for its contributions to two categories: Database & Data Tools and Tools & IDEs.

Embarcadero continues to ensure its product portfolio gives database developers the most breadth and depth of support to meet all database development requirements. In 2008, Embarcadero made nearly a $25 million investment to make good on this commitment when it purchased CodeGear from Borland Software. By merging Embarcadero’s professional-grade database tools with CodeGear’s application development tools, the company now serves more than three million application developers and database professionals with database-related tools that are interoperable and integrated.

In addition to its investment to expand and deliver integrated software development tools, Embarcadero has also introduced a way to reduce overall software tooling costs. Earlier this year, Embarcadero unveiled the industry’s first multi-platform, on-demand tooling solution that provides application developers, architects and database professionals with cost effective access to all the tools they need to design, build and run software applications and database systems.

Embarcadero’s innovation, Embarcadero® All-Access™, enables customers to select from one of four membership levels that offer on-demand access to the entire Embarcadero tool chest which includes up to 18 award winning development and database management products. All-Access simplifies tool delivery and license management with innovative and flexible licensing and deployment options that are designed to simplify license provisioning and access for any size team or organization.

“The software development industry has always been led by innovation, and that’s true even in today’s challenging economic climate,” said Alan Zeichick, editorial director of BZ Media’s SD Times. “When choosing the 2009 SD Times 100 winners, we carefully considered each organization’s products, services, R&D investment, reputation with enterprise development managers, and the new ideas and thought leadership that it has brought to the industry. Thanks to companies like Embarcadero, the art of software development continues to advance at a rapid pace.”
