Software Development Tool
A Superior Software Development Tool Delivers Agility, Profitability
Developing software for today's distributed enterprises is not a simple task. Developers must work with multiple complex technologies, highly distributed environments, and computing networks often built on a hybrid infrastructure combing legacy systems with newer ones. Added to this is the pressure to develop very sophisticated applications quickly, in order to be more responsive to the needs of the enterprise, its customers and markets. In a global marketplace where technology drives productivity, it's not an overstatement to say that software development is a key contributor to competitiveness. Consequently, working with the right development tool is critical to the success of developers as well as the enterprise. The right tool will provide maximum productivity for creating applications efficiently, but great flexibility as well in order to meet the specific needs of the enterprise for custom applications. For a software development tool that enables developers to accelerate their work and enterprises to improve competitiveness, consider Progress OpenEdge.
Progress® OpenEdge® Provides Leading Software Development Tool
Progress OpenEdge is a business application platform that makes it simpler to develop, deploy, integrate and manage world-class applications. Built on the proprietary Progress 4GL programming language, OpenEdge offers a powerful software development tool that enables enterprises to streamline the process of developing custom applications. OpenEdge allows developers to easily create interfaces for the key industry standards such as Java, .NET, XML and Web services. Using a sophisticated software development tool for automation, developers can quickly assemble complex code within a fully configurable workspace. A rich code editor and an integrated debugger are complemented by project-oriented navigation, template-driven code generation, an impact analysis tool, and innovative navigation tools that provide views into structure of the code, schema of a database as well as all application resources. Developers also have the option of working with 4GL's powerful and adaptive syntax, when writing code to meet specific challenges is required.
A Flexible Tool for Development of World-Class Software
The OpenEdge software development tool includes a repository-based framework called Progress Dynamics® that helps to develop, assemble and manage the components of a sophisticated, distributed application more cost-effectively. From a single set of business logic stored in the repository, developers can generate multiple interfaces dynamically tailored to customer profiles, without adding additional resources. This kind of innovation demonstrates the efficiency and productivity of OpenEdge, and is one of the primary reasons why enterprises the world over have chosen Progress.
In addition to the 4GL languages for writing Progress applications, Progress also delivers solutions for service oriented architecture, application integration, and more.
