AUSTIN, Texas/EWORLDWIRE/Feb. 13, 2008 --- The Websydian WebClient developed for CA Plex in a partnership between ADC Austin and Websydian A/S is now available to all customers. The WebClient was available to partners since September, 2007. Web Enablement Today - SOA Tomorrow
This new tool enables CA Plex development shops to generate rich HTML directly from existing CA Plex model panels. The WebClient tool can be used both to publish existing applications to the Web and to develop new applications. WebClient generated applications deploy to standard J2EE Web server environments like Tomcat or IBM Websphere, and they are compatible with all CA Plex server technologies including C#/.NET, Java, RPG, SQL Server, and Oracle. The Websydian WebClient also supports CA 2E applications that have been migrated to CA Plex via the ADC Modernization Studio.
The product comes with a set of advanced patterns to perform sophisticated HTML templating, enabling the development of Rich Internet Applications (RIA) that integrate seamlessly with Web services and features like geo-mapping, workflow, Ajax, and RIA JavaScript frameworks.
This means that the Websydian WebClient handles today's Web enablement requirements as well as prepares CA Plex and CA 2E applications for future challenges like SOA, SaaS, and a sophisticated Web page design/rich application user experience.
The WebClient has been in a pilot phase/testing with selected technology partners. Partner developer Joe Aubuchon, principal and chief technology officer for ISV Patient Focus Systems, is more than satisfied with the WebClient: "WebClient is enabling us to publish our flagship client-server application to the Web, quickly certainly, but more importantly, with a high quality user interface." Javier Ruiz Alcoy, Plex architect for Dominion t.i. Madrid Spain, says, "WebClient has allowed us to keep up with the market's evolutionary needs of bringing 2E and Plex applications to a Web environment. This agile and effective tool has an outstanding level of performance, and the patterns included provide clear solutions to our imminent challenges."
The product is generally available through Websydian, ADC Austin and a network of Websydian and CA partners worldwide.
