U2 Web
Development Environment
Extend Your Reach
You need to connect with your customers wherever
they are—at their desks, on their phones or on the
road. In retail sales, banking, transportation, package
delivery services and more, your Rocket U2 business
solution touches people everywhere. Rocket
Software’s U2 Web Development Environment (U2
Web DE) delivers your solution across the
web—when and where it is needed.
Build Once, Connect
Many
U2 Web DE is a tool to abstract your data and
business logic in server-side objects that follow
industry standards for use in web and mobile
applications. It ensures maximum business uptime
and eliminates interruptions to business operations,
and if you need to change your interface, you can
simply reuse existing objects.
Divide and Conquer
Let your U2 developers focus on what they know
best: understanding your data architecture, select-
ing the right properties to expose, and defining key
methods. Allow expert web developers to pick their
favorite interfaces, such as Java or .NET, to build the
web front-end leveraging this object architecture.
Collaborative development uses the right experts
for the right job.
Scale the Heights
Make sure your web application can handle variable
loads and sudden surges. U2 Web DE supports
either webshares or connection pooling to share
on-demand access to the database for application
scalability. Assign minimum and maximum
connections to balance your resources and tune
your responsiveness. You never know when your
popularity will increase!
Peace of Mind
Your web solution must be secure and available, so
don't let the need for database maintenance slow
you down. U2 Web DE allows for database
pause/resume and the ability to restart accounts to
eliminate interruptions and prevent loss of web
requests. Use Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption
of data in flight and Automatic Data Encryption
(ADE) to secure data at rest. You can rest easy and fly
high knowing that your web data is secure.
Span the Globe
When your business takes you around the world,
you need to speak the lingo. Full foreign language
support using UniVerse National Language Support
(NLS) and UniData I18N allows your web application
to run in the language of your customer. Localizing
screen prompts and displaying geographically
correct date and currency formats make
international business seamless.
