MacPractice Upgrades Users to MySQL Version 5
Lincoln, NE, August 10, 2007 - MacPractice, Inc., developer of MacPractice MD for physicians, MacPractice DDS for dentists, MacPractice DC for chiropractors, and MacPractice 20/20 for optometrists, the preeminent Mac OS X practice management software and clinical applications announces migration of all of its products to MySQL 5. Â*
Among many new database features, MySQL 5 supports views, stored procedures, stored routines, and triggers. There are many new performance improvements as well. Â*
All new purchasers of MacPractice software will receive MySQL 5. MacPractice also purchased the upgrade from MySQL AB for all 1800 current MacPractice users. Â*
MacPractice software is forward and backward compatible with MySQL versions 4 and 5. MacPractice plans for future versions to take advantage of features that are only in MySQL 5 after all users have upgraded, which should occur within the next few months. Â*
"MySQL has made this transition very easy for us and for our clients. We can't wait to leverage the new features of MySQL 5 to benefit our users," says Mark Hollis, President of MacPractice.
Doctors are encouraged to view QuickTime demonstration movies of MacPractice MD, DDS, DC, or 20/20 after registering at MacPractice.com.
