In its ambition to enhance its mainframe connectivity product series, Bellevue, Wash.- based vendor Attachmate Corp. made known the addition of two new tools
aimed at facilitating software developers in their initiative to access mainframe data when building innovative Web-based applications. The new Synapta
Presentation Builder and Services Builder tools are making possible the mainframe applications inclusion into service-oriented architectures.
The newly - included in Attachmate's mainframe connectivity offering tools represent a sure way for web developers to take internally facing applications and expose them to external users, thus saving the mainframe code and creating a Web service. The tools, in effect, turn the mainframe into a SQL database which enables the potential availability to all types of web applications.
The latest additions to the company's mainframe connectivity product line will be readily available to help web developers in the complicated Web-based
applications building process the upcoming month of November. The introductory price of Synapta Presentation Builder is $125,000 per runtime, while Services
Builder is priced at $65,000 per runtime.
