Infinite Software Introduces New Features for App Migration Tool

August 7, 2007 Dan Burger

Infinite Software (formerly California Software), a provider of tools for migrating i5/OS applications to Windows, Unix, and Linux, has released its latest version of its Infinite iSeries Suite of rehosting tools that includes compilers, utilities, and a deployment environment.

The enhancements included in what is referred to as Version 4.00.05 provide expanded support for complex date and time functions; basing pointers and pointer arithmetic; improvements in the handling of large files, including database files and larger database keys; plus support for Oracle‘s 10g and newly released 11g databases.

The company is also touting improved and extended support for embedded SQL and enhanced performance for embedded SQL and ODBC code.

The Web components of the Infinite iSeries Suite now include the integration of “click once” technology, which replaces “rich client” methodology. Officials at Infinite Software say this provides better styles inheritance and application management behavior, an expanded SOA implementation based on easy-to-use wizards, and improvements to overall visibility. In addition, the business intelligence capabilities have also been expanded, particularly in the area of scheduling.

The rehosting suite also includes the INFINITEweb tools used in developing custom screen designs, Web deployments, and the integration of the legacy applications.

Roll out of version 4.00.05 to new and existing clients will occur over the next few months, according to Bruce Acacio, chief executive officer of Infinite Software.

Strategic Partnerships Add Value

A Case for On-Prem IBM i Deployment

As organizations decide where to run their IBM i workloads with a growing range of strategies, it becomes more important to have strong differentiators in the various options to help make prudent IT decisions. Cloud options are now becoming more widely considered, but as UCG Technologies explains in a recent IT Jungle article, these options should be weighed in comparison to purchasing or leasing your own IBM Power Server and installing it on premises or at a Co-location facility.

On premise (on-prem) deployments largely remain most cost-effective and appropriate for midrange systems, especially when factoring in backup and disaster recovery. One way to maximize this approach is to capitalize on long-standing partnerships with complimentary expertise as in the case with IBM and UCG Technologies. The IBM i Solution Edition for UCG’s VAULT400 cloud backup & DRaaS is an offering that allows organizations the ability to combine the power of IBM Power Systems and IBM i with the strengths of business applications, along with superior services and support. The leads to improved productivity and responsiveness, adaptability and competitive Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

Benefits to the end user include:

Discounted single or unlimited user entitlements – Save $6,000 to $60,000
No-charge IBM i processor core entitlements
No-charge IBM i access unlimited user entitlements
Discounted Rational Developer for i
No-charge service vouchers – 4 hours or 8 hours – Value of up to $ 1,800

To receive the above benefits, end user client must meet IBM requirements including contracting for a minimum of $6,000 of VAULT400 cloud backup services for P05 or $25,000 for P10 with UCG Technologies. The IBM i Solution Edition may be purchased directly from UCG Technologies or from another qualified – authorized IBM partner.

The IBM i Solution Edition for VAULT400 cloud backup & DRaaS is available for both the IBM Power System S914 and S924. Leverage a platform that utilizes the full power of IBM i while deploying a complete backup and disaster recovery solution that delivers rapid ROI. That is an on-prem win-win for mid-market organizations.
