Free your organization's experts to build the exceptional database applications that make you successful.

  1. Productivity Gains:  Regeneratable Styles support generating windows, making manual changes using traditional coding techniques and regenerating at any time to add new controls or style elements - never overwrite a manual alteration. PowerVista is interpreted (similar to SQL interpretation speed) so you can view your changes immediately without waiting for compilation. PowerVista Bridge delivers exceptional return on development investment. Bounding box layout delivers efficient resolution independent display and builds automatic flexibility for font sizes, resolutions, window resizing and control invisibility into your application.
     

  2. Customizable Environment: PowerVista Bridge is a comprehensive database development environment. It includes full featured and flexible list and tree controls, basic window controls, report writer and graphing library. Integrate third-party software using ActiveX, COM or DLL's. Customize the Style Library to support your application style, your specific database schema structure, application purpose or development organization. 

  3. Database Independence: PowerVista Bridge is designed around a database independence layer, which allows developers to connect their applications to any popular database. This architecture makes it simple to add support for your proprietary database or other databases as needed. Support includes MS Access, Oracle, Sybase, MS SQL Server 8.0, DB2, Pervasive SQL2000 and Informix, as well as our own internal single-user database. Develop once, deploy on any platform as needed.

  4. Flexible Application Deployment: The same application can be deployed as a standalone application, on a LAN on a WAN or over the Internet... unchanged. Once your application is created, you can deliver to your customers in any method that suits their particular needs. 

  5. Reduced Maintenance Costs: Your application uses a high level language in an easily readable and maintainable form. Regeneration using Styles makes changing windows for new database fields or new features and functionality a snap. See PowerVista's RollCall and GlobalFamily applications for examples of how easy it is to make changes to existing applications.

Complete information is available in the PowerVista Bridge Technical Overview. See a complete application in PowerVista RollCall - Software built for Change using PowerVista Bridge.

 

How PowerVista Bridge Works

PowerVista Bridge creates your database application. PowerVista Bridge consists of an authoring tool, PowerVista Markup Language and PowerVista Application Browser. Analogous items in Internet design are authoring tools, HTML and an Internet browser. No compiling is necessary.

After building your PowerVista Bridge application, deploy it over the Internet/Intranet with no additional effort using the PowerVista Application Server. PowerVista Application Server is analogous to a web server. In the same way a web server allows web pages to be viewed by browsers, so PowerVista Application Server transforms PowerVista applications into Internet database applications. You get the benefit automatic client update - everyone is on the most current version. It is  friendly to low-bandwidth users, and supports deploying your PowerVista Bridge application in a variety of ways. Internet/Intranet Database Application deployment is as easy (actually much easier) than traditional client/server application deployment.

PowerVista Bridge allows the results-oriented developer to focus attention on the process of distilling their knowledge into new applications, rather than the mechanics of development. They are empowered to solve their organization's business issues by rapidly creating functional applications that are pleasing to look at and easy to use. The same PowerVista applications scale easily from a single computer to wide area networks and the Internet, serving applications and data across TCP/IP connections.
