This release marks the extension of the new XE brand and capability set to Embarcadero's application development line, including RAD Studio and each standalone tool in the suite. XE products are distinguished by three key components: support for multiple database types and deployment environments; Embarcadero(R) ToolCloud technology for centralised licence management and on-demand tool access; and an easy upgrade path to Embarcadero(R) All-Access(TM) XE.

Key enhancements specific to the new XE releases of Delphi and C++Builder include:

- New cloud capabilities that allow developers to interact with cloud computing environments. Users can create applications that access Microsoft(R) Windows Azure(TM) platform storage services (blob, queue and table services). Developers can also easily deploy server applications with 'push-button deploy' to the Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) environment and access them from multiple types of thin-client applications. - An expanded multi-tier framework for added development flexibility. The enhanced DataSnap(TM) framework gives developers more options for building multi-tier applications with the ability to build servers with both C++Builder and Delphi, new wizards for creating server applications and client modules and support for JavaScript, REST and HTTP and HTTPS transport protocols. - A new integrated set of tools for testing, performance profiling, build automation and QA enables developers to streamline their development processes, so they can spend less time managing and more time coding. New tools include a difference engine from Scooter Software's Beyond Compare, performance profiling and memory/resource debugging with integrated SmartBear Software's AQtime, integrated logging of source code for deeper insight into code execution with Raize CodeSite and Internet application development with advanced IP communications protocols with the /n Software IP*Works component suite.
