Companies can run their proven graphical or character-based Business Basic applications just as before, but they gain fast, intelligent SQL processing and greater flexibility in accessing data.
Application development is now much faster and easier with a new and comprehensive toolset.
Additionally, developers can now easily extend and add functionality with nothing more than calls to Java classes. The BBj Standard Edition is also available in a run-time version. The BBj Standard Edition protects Business Basic developers' investment in their existing applications and systems. Developers can leverage the strengths of their legacy applications while gaining more powerful, industry-standard software tools for scaling and extending those applications.
