The database software is MS SQL Server 2017. Should the active database server fail, the passive server automatically takes over.
#MERLIN PROJECT UPGRADE UPGRADE#
The server upgrade will take place on June 8. It’s critical our infrastructure can support us now and in the future.” Said Mike Pnematicatos, CEO and chief architect: “We are gaining more customers and introducing additional features and new technology, such as our Webapps. So, this important server upgrade will ensure Merlin provides the latest technology and the best customer experience for everyone. New resort clients in the US, Caribbean and Pakistan are set to come online. Daniel Hering, Dr.Merlin Software is set for a server upgrade next month in order to increase performance and capacity as its software grows to a wider global audience. MERLIN – Mainstreaming Ecological Restoration of freshwater-related ecosystems in a Landscape context: INnovation, upscaling and transformationĬontact: Prof. "Restoration thus also contributes to improving the residential environment and creates local recreation areas," says Sebastian Birk. One focus is on the creation and sustainable use of flowering meadows on the Emscher dikes. After the former dirty watercourse has already been cleaned and redesigned in a near-natural way at great expense, MERLIN is now contributing to the further upgrading of the watercourse environment. In Germany, the restoration of the Emscher is one of the supported projects. The effects of the measures will be accounted economically and ecologically. "One focus is on cooperation with industries that can benefit from restoration, for example agriculture, drinking water production and insurance companies," explains Daniel Hering.
These major projects will be expanded and upscaled with EU funding and developed into European-wide models. He coordinates MERLIN with Professor Hering.ġ0 million of the EU funding will go to 17 areas from Finland to Israel, where streams, rivers as well as bogs and wetlands are currently being restored to a near-natural state. Sebastian Birk of the UDE Aquatic Ecology Working Group. "Many social groups benefit from restoration, and it requires the contribution of many actors," says Dr. The project involves 44 partners from across Europe, including universities, research institutes, nature conservation organizations, and stakeholders from business, government, and municipalities. MERLIN seeks new, widely applicable solutions for restoring the functions of freshwater ecosystems, for example to improve flood retention and store carbon dioxide. The European Union (EU) is funding it with 21 million euros until 2025. The MERLIN* joint project coordinated by the UDE shows how this can work in Europe. "Water bodies and their floodplains need more space – they have to be renaturalized," says Prof. The flood disasters in North Rhine-Westphalia and Rhineland-Palatinate show how climate change and river engineering interact.
