Entera is impressive. I haven't worked with anything as new as this before, in any area of IT, and been able to get up and running on our own so easily. Entera enables us to quickly changte what we do. Functionality servers provide the business rules for each application. Data access servers access relational databases and translate stored data into an abstract format that applications can easily manipulate.
Transaction servers provide commit and abort capabilities across all supported relational databases.
Instead, Entera automatically generates all of the code necessary to connect an application to the middleware. Developers no longer need to learn the intricacies and complexities of the middleware technology. As a result, Entera allows application developers to concentrate on adding value to the business application rather than on programming middleware. And since Entera eliminates the need to write middleware interfaces into the application, organizations can easily enhance existing applications and take advantage of new technology as it becomes available. An open, standards-based architecture that allows developers to build business applications in global, heterogeneous environments.
