Change Management for Controlling Cross-Platform App Development
by Dan Burger
As many organizations advance toward server-centric, thin-client, network computing based on open,
standards-based interfaces, the application development environment is becoming increasingly difficult to
manage. Change management software, not surprisingly, plays an important role in these strategies driven

available to manage the process of building e-business applications.

Fostering Brotherhood Among Servers Through SNMP
by Alex Woodie
From an AS/400 point of view, midrange data centers historically have been segregated. You have your
Windows and Unix servers and support systems in place. And then you have your OS/400 server, happily
chugging along, doing its own thing, in its own unique way. That model worked fine for many years, but
today's organizations see benefits in centralized control. To that end, CCSS has announced that its iSeries
systems management software now fosters the sharing of operational data among disparate platforms.

Get Active with Your
Users' Jobs
by Alex Woodie
You can count on users to find the weak points in your applications. But wouldn't it be nice to see how your
users got to the point of no return and to take corrective action to stop jobs that have run amok before they
clog the system? That's the idea with the latest version of SoftMenu, a utility from SoftLanding Systems that helps to automate setting up users' menus.
