For client access to applications, the University uses the Web and ODBC, Open Horizon's Connection middleware allows ODBC to tunnel over DCE, and enables a single ODBC interface to access both the business logic on the application server for three-tier, applications, and the data on the database server for two-tier architectures. Connection's Application Broker links two-tier applications with server-based business rules, Te monitors and legacy systems .; The University is using PowerBuilder, which supports ODBC, for developing new client/server applications. According to John Detlofs @ development specialist with the University, the team has tested PowerBuilder applications to ensure they can access. business logic on the application server, and expects to have prototype applications ready within the year.
