Cimera is basically a database, in the same way that the
Koh-I-Noor diamond is basically a rock.

Is Cimera just another database?

There are many good database products on the market, Cimera is NOT just another one. A database in and of itself is of no use. To go from

“I have a database product”

to

“I have a useful application that utilises the power of a database”

requires a significant investment of time and effort from skilled technical people to design, build & test it. “Significant” ranging from weeks to many years effort depending on the application’s complexity.

More than a database

In that sense Cimera is not like other database products – because it comes with the database application pre-built.

All that is required to turn Cimera into the custom-made database application that exactly meets your unique needs is for it to be configured. Configuration is done from the easy to use administration screens, does not require technical skills, requires no knowledge of the underlying database, and is pretty easy.

The benefit of Cimera over a “standard” database

Cimera provides the functionality of an application built on a strong database – but does so without the effort of having to build it.
