  • Oracle to Support Current JDE Releases Through 2015

    April 19, 2011 Alex Woodie

    Oracle will provide technical support for the current releases of the JD Edwards EnterpriseOne and World ERP products through November and May 2015, respectively, the vendor announced at last week’s Collaborate user conference.

    Oracle apparently decided to be more generous with product support timelines for the current releases of the JDE products, including EnterpriseOne 9.0 Update 2 and World A9.2 Update 1.

    The world’s largest business software says that, by setting the start date for its “premiere support” service as the general availability date for those two products (November 2010 for EnterpriseOne 9.0 Update 2 and May 2010 for World A9.2 Update 1), that it was able to give customers “more flexibility in their upgrade planning.”

    What it all boils down to is JDE shops now have an end-of-support date they can circle on their calendars. If JDE shops fail to plan and execute an upgrade for their current ERP system by the end-of-support date, then it’s basically their own stupid fault, and they shouldn’t come crying to Oracle that they need more time.

    “We’ve listened to our customers’ feedback and set the new Oracle Premier Support timeline to allow more flexibility in planning upgrades and to further incentivize the upgrade process,” Lyle Ekdahl, group vice president and general manager for JD Edwards, said in a press release.

    Oracle’s pronouncement of the dates also is a gentle reminder (nudge, nudge) to any World or EnterpriseOne shop that is not on a current release, or is very close to losing support for a current release, to get on the ball and start planning. That is the “incentivize” part.

    To that end, Oracle announced two new tools to help customers plan, including the Oracle Upgrade Advisor and a new release of Release Value Proposition.

    When it comes to consuming web APIs on your IBM i, your options often boil down to one of two things:

    First, you end up having to rely on a variety of open source and non-RPG solutions. This adds developer complexity, taking away time that could have been better spent invested in other projects. Of course, open source software is free, but generally comes at the cost of no professional support, which adds an element of risk in your production environment. RXS is completely professionally supported, and is complemented by a staff of trained IBM i developers who can address your nuanced development challenges, head on.

    Second, if you choose not to pursue an open-source solution, you’re often left having to shake up your current program architecture with proprietary software, external dependencies, and partial RPG implementations – many of which are sub-par compared to RPG-XML Suite’s wide range of features. RXS aims to simplify the efforts of developers with tools like code generators, useful commands, and subprocedures written in 100% RPG – no Java. Because they are entirely RPG, the RXS subprocedures are easy to add to new or existing ILE programs and architecture, helping to cut your development time. RPG-XML Suite offers powerful capabilities in an accessible, easy-to-implement format.

    With RPG-XML Suite, you can accomplish a variety of complex tasks, such as:

    • Calling REST and SOAP web services from your IBM i
    • Offering APIs from your IBM i
    • Creating JSON & XML
    • Parsing JSON & XML
    • Text manipulation, Base64 encoding/decoding, CCSID handling, hashing and encryption functions, and more.

    To try RXS for yourself, we recommend a free proof of concept, which not only gives you access to all of RPG-XML Suite’s subprocedures and utilities but also includes a tailor-made software demonstration that can be used as a starting point for your future API implementations.

    For a free proof of concept, contact us at sales@krengeltech.com, or visit our website for more information.
