Subject: NeXT Software, Inc. invites you to learn about our WebObjects
NeXT Software, Inc. invites you to learn about our WebObjects
development tools for Windows NT and popular UNIX servers. Find out
what's next for the technology that gave birth to the World Wide
Web. A decade's worth of the most advanced object software
available today is now providing enterprise solutions for dynamic
Web sites of all sizes.
Integrate Client-side Technology. WebObjects is server-based
technology that vends pages customized to the user -- pages that
might contain Java applets, embedded information for Netscape
plug-ins, any HTML widget, and so forth.
Integrate Different Languages. WebObjects developers can integrate
existing C, C++, Objective-C code (and APIs like ODBC) into
Web-based applications in combination with scripted languages such
as WebScript and (via WebObjects add-on partners) languages such as
Tcl and Perl. Thus WebObjects supports a balance of scripted and
compiled code determined by you and your application's needs.
Support for both Java and JavaScript on the server has been
announced.
Integrate Different Datasources. WebObjects also includes built-in
adaptors for persistently storing objects in RDBMSes such as Sybase
and Oracle. Solution partners provide extensions to this database
access framework including support for Informix, DB/2, and
3270-based mainframe applications.
Integrate Your Objects & OLE. WebObjects includes object brokering
technologies for Objective-C objects and OLE Automation objects
over the wire. Thus a WebObjects application can vend an Excel
spreadsheet, an Access database, or any application that supports
OLE Automation on the web to clients anywhere with any browser
(regardless of their desktop configuration). Note that this object
brokering has been extended via NeXT's professional services
organization to access objects implemented as CORBA or DCE services.
Scale Your Applications. In addition to compiled code support,
WebObjects provides sophisticated scalability enhancements such as a
high performance CGI and NSAPI HTTP server adaptors. This adaptor
technology can be configured to easily perform load balancing
across multiple machines running a single virtual WebObjects
application (or multiple WebObjects applications). The WebObjects
adaptor can run on any operating system or HTTP server platform
including popular models from SGI -- and still message the right
WebObjects applications running on any combination of Windows NT,
Solaris, and NEXTSTEP machines. Support for other Web application
platforms is planned.
WebObjects is browser independent, HTTP server independent,
database independent, and operating system independent. In short,
WebObjects integrates technologies through independence bringing
solutions to businesses large and small on the Web today.
