LANSA Unveils Breakthrough Software Suite
LANSA 2005 Puts Mid-Market Organizations on Fast Path to Modernize, Integrate, and Extend IT Infrastructure
Downers Grove, Ill. - March 13, 2005 - LANSA, a global provider of enterprise application development and integration software, today announced at the COMMON Conference and Expo the availability of LANSA 2005™, a major upgrade to its cross-platform application development and integration suite. LANSA 2005 delivers breakthrough application modernization, integration and extension capabilities for IT development teams and software vendors of multiple platforms, including the IBM eServer iSeries.
“By combining LANSA’s highly successful approach to simplifying enterprise software development and integration with support for modern application architectures, LANSA 2005 delivers faster results and earlier payback than other development alternatives,” said LANSA’s president, John Siniscal. “LANSA understands the unique environment in which mid-sized organizations operate and has helped thousands to maximize existing IT resources when creating or extending business processes.”
According to AMR Research's Eric Austvold, in his 2005 outlook for Service Oriented Architectures (SOA), “Since no CIO can start with a clean slate and replace the existing infrastructure, architectures, or applications, this new era of architecture calls for an evolutionary approach to leverage existing assets through the building of composite applications on top of a service oriented architecture.”
Delivering Tomorrow’s Applications with Today’s Staff
IT staff can easily master LANSA 2005 to assemble composite applications from existing systems and databases, deploy to a browser or client/server n-tier solution, and run on their platform of choice. The LANSA 2005 suite offers enhanced rapid application development capability; out-of-the-box support for Web services; universal end-user device support and any-to-any integration. LANSA 2005 builds on core benefits of previous LANSA releases such as native and seamless iSeries integration, repository-based development, and a modern integrated development environment (IDE). With this new technology foundation, LANSA offers a compelling pathway for companies looking to implement portals and other e-business applications, but concerned about the cost, complexity, and limitations of .NET and J2EE development.
The built-in support for Web services and integration in LANSA 2005 helps organizations progress toward a Service-Oriented Architecture without having to become experts in a myriad of protocols. With one click, developers can expose LANSA components as Web services to easily interoperate with .NET and J2EE components.
Derek Maciak, vice president of product development at Surround Technologies, a LANSA Business Partner, said, “LANSA 2005 takes a big step forward in the arenas of development and integration. It is much easier for developers to learn than Java, yet delivers more benefits. The new LANSA 2005 technology shields us from the underlying XSL and XML, and we anticipate productivity gains that indicate a 50% improvement in time to deliver next-generation web applications for our clients.”
LANSA 2005 provides a transitional approach to next-generation applications, so companies and developers can move at their own pace. New LANSA 2005 technologies such as frameworks and Web application modules provide a significant productivity boost. Using a single development approach, developers can construct applications that may be deployed with a single click for 5250, Windows, Web services or any browser-capable devices such as Palm, Pocket PC, and WAP-enabled phones. Customers continually praise LANSA for its ability to help them leverage new technologies without the burden of adding additional resources.
Peter Burns, director of information technology at High Liner Foods, said, “The old adage about photos being worth a thousand words is true. By using LANSA, we can build, model and prototype an application quickly. The business team can see what we’ve done, decide what they need and help to mold the prototype.”
Availability
LANSA 2005 is in controlled release today with general availability in Q2. LANSA allows customers to license the entire LANSA 2005 suite, or individual components as they are needed. This modular, but integrated approach to packaging technology matches the way mid-market companies like to do business.
