SAP PowerDesigner (PowerDesigner) is a collaborative enterprise modelling tool produced by Sybase, currently owned by SAP. PowerDesigner runs under Microsoft Windows as a native application, and runs under Eclipse through a plugin. PowerDesigner supports model-driven architecture software design. PowerDesigner stores models using a variety of file extensions, such as .bpm, .cdm and .pdm. The internal file structure can be either XML or a compressed binary file format. PowerDesigner can also store models in a database repository. PowerDesigner provides a single modeling environment that brings together the techniques and notations of business process and requirements modeling, data modeling, enterprise architecture modeling, and UML application modeling. The scope of the metadata supported by PowerDesigner is therefore much wider than just the metadata required to describe and manage your data.〔(Data Modeling Made Simple with PowerDesigner by Steve Hoberman and George McGeachie, Technics Publications, 2011. )〕 PowerDesigner data modeling tool market share in 2002 was 39%.〔(Xiao-Yun Wang, PowerDesigner Chief Architect, 2005 )〕 PowerDesigner is priced from $3,000 to $7,500 USD per developer seat.〔Sybase〕 ==Features== PowerDesigner includes support for: *Business Process Modeling (''ProcessAnalyst'') supporting BPMN *Code generation (Java, C#, VB .NET, Hibernate, EJB3, NHibernate, JSF, WinForm (.NET and .NET CF), PowerBuilder, ...) *Data modeling (works with most major RDBMS systems) *Data Warehouse Modeling (''WarehouseArchitect'') *Eclipse plugin *Object modeling (UML 2.0 diagrams) *Report generation *Supports Simul8 to add simulation functions to the BPM module to enhance business processes design. *Repository *Requirements analysis *XML Modeling supporting XML Schema and DTD standards *Visual Studio 2005 / 2008 addin *Collaboration by storing metadata and models in a central location, complete with documented histories and version control. Using this shared repository, teams can analyze and design the enterprise architecture using a single, common set of source materials.〔(Data Modeling Made Simple with PowerDesigner ) by Steve Hoberman and George McGeachie, Technics Publications, 2011.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「PowerDesigner」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
