  • Gabriel X64 Server Survey: Brother, Can You Spare Some Time?

    April 5, 2010 Timothy Prickett Morgan

    Our good buddy, Dan Olds, over at Gabriel Consulting Group is looking for customers with X64 server to take part in his annual server survey, and he could use the assistance of readers of The Four Hundred.

    Admit it. You have these Winders and Loonix boxes all over the place. They crop up like mold in an unclean bathroom, like mice in a barn, like clouds off the coast of Africa that come whipping across the Atlantic, causing untold damage.

    Well, Gabriel Consulting wants to find out exactly what you think of those old X86 and newer X64 servers you use, and what you think of the treatment you get–or do not get–from your suppliers. The first 200 respondents (across all the places that are asking for readers to take the survey) get a $10 gift certificate via email from Gabriel Consulting. Even if you are not in the 200, I would take it as a personal favor from readers of The Four Hundred to take the survey and help us all get a better understanding of the X64 installed base. Thanks for your help. You can take the survey at this link.

    It’s difficult to decide how to evolve an application when its logic, dependencies, and operation are no longer fully understood…

    IBM i applications have often evolved over many years, in response to changing business needs, successive developments, and team changes. Over time, knowledge can become scattered, documentation may become incomplete or obsolete, and certain dependencies may become difficult to identify.

    This loss of visibility complicates decision-making. How can you measure the impact of a change, identify the affected components, or understand an existing business rule?

    In this webinar, discover how DISCOVER enables you to:

    • Perform automated functional mapping of your applications by generating a complete tree structure and visualizing the links between programs, files, modules, and functional domains,
    • Ensure the retro-documentation of your applications by formalizing business rules and functional knowledge in the form of text and diagrams,
    • Analyze databases by identifying relationships between tables, physical and logical files, and then generating the corresponding diagrams,
    • Explore application architecture using interactive diagrams and 3D representations,
    • Graphically compare different versions of the same program to identify changes and analyze their impact.
    • Track a value or variable end to end, from its origin through its transformations and different uses within the application.
