Version 8 provides transaction processing using 32-bit multi-threaded transactional access with the capabilities of SQL relational processing. Features are included such as archival logging and automatic server recovery to ensure that mission-critical data is available, the company said.

The database can be embedded in applications and requires minimal maintenance, according to Pervasive. Support is included for industry-standard APIs including ODBC, JDBC, ADO/OLE DB, and Active X. Pervasive's Distributed Tuning Interface enables developers to control the database engine with the Version 8 toolset from within their applications. Version 8 is integrated with development tools such as Visual Basic, Java, .Net., Perl, and C++.

The Pervasive control center in Version 8 provides developers with a central console for database management. Developers can customize the console by adding or removing other applications, tools, or utilities.
