NeuVis, a provider of Internet rapid application development (I-RAD) software, has announced NeuArchitect 3.0. The new modeling and construction features in NeuArchitect 3.0 make it particularly well suited to solve key enterprise-level ‘pain points’ facing Global 2000 organizations, including tying legacy systems to the Internet, building XML messaging-based applications, creating applications for wireless devices, and increasing application development productivity.
NeuArchitect 3.0 utilizes visual architectural tools rather than conventional programming to model and design custom applications, providing end-to-end, UML-compliant modeling of legacy integration, messaging, business objects, business rules, site workflow, user interfaces, security, and process flow. From these models, NeuArchitect 3.0 automatically generates up to 95% of the code required for the complete application, based on customer-specified deployment technologies. The architectural model (or blueprint) of the application is maintained in a technology-neutral environment and can be modified and updated to adjust to changes in business model and market requirements.
In addition to existing modeling and automated construction capabilities, NeuArchitect 3.0 includes the following new features:
* UML class diagram import
* Database reverse engineering
* JSP support for EJB environments
* Optimized, automated deployment to IBM WebSphere 3.5
* Code construction override
* Integration with legacy systems, including OS/390, IMS, VSAM, and CICS
* Optimized support for JMS
* Message encryption
* Message queue priority support
* LDAP Access Control.
“Global 2000 organizations are looking for an I-RAD platform that meets their immediate e-business application development challenges,” said Bill Lyons, president and CEO of NeuVis. “These challenges include Web-enabling their legacy systems, realizing the promise of XML messaging, and building applications for wireless and other new devices. NeuArchitect brings an enterprise-level solution to these challenges that lets organizations get on with their IT agendas through a single, integrated, rapid development and deployment environment.”
