Automatic Normalisation for Entity-Relationship and Graph Databases
Automatic conversion of ORM diagrams to Entity-Relationship Diagrams and Property Graph Schemas positions you as ready to meet modern conceptual modelling challenges head on.
Conceptul Modelling for Multi-Model Databases
Boston is custom built for multi-modelling. Establish your model in Object-Role Modelling and then automatically convert your model to an Entity-Relationship Diagram or Property Graph Schema.
As the industry leans towards Multi-Model Databases you are prepared to meet the market head on with the most advanced conceptual modeller of its kind.
Boston is the first conceptual modelling tool in the world to meet the requirements of multi-model databases and the new era of semantic modelling.
Boston is jam packed with features:
| - Natural Language Verbalisations | - Virtual Analyst (Natural Language Model Creation) | - Morphing between Pages (simplified Model Navigation) |
| - Error List | - Print / Print Preview | - Model Dictionary |
| - Unlimited Models in Model Explorer | - Automatic Normalisation | - Model Explorer |
| - Export and Import Models with XML | - Conversion to ER Diagrams and Property Graph Schemas | - Glossary View |

Modelling with Object-Role Modelling allows for rich, natural-language semantic information to be captured for your model. Boston's Glossary View allows you to view the natural-language extrapolation of your conceptual model. This information makes it easy to communicate the model with all stakeholders.
Generate Code or Data Definition Script
Use Boston's built-in code generator to generate software code or data definition script. Template driven, Boston's code generator is fast and easy to use.
