ProTop simplifies the job of managing and monitoring the world’s best OpenEdge applications.
If you’re a newly-minted OpenEdge DBA, you may be wondering what tasks you should be performing on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis to keep your database healthy and the server running in tip-top condition. With so many questions and potential pitfalls, it can be difficult to know where to start.
An API first approach has become very popular.
In this presentation we will introduce and take you through the development workspace manager called NX.
Integration is the key to prolonging an application’s lifetime.
Is there a platform migration or upgrade in your future? Are you still on HPUX, Solaris, AIX, CentOS or an old Redhat version, and the clock is ticking? Is there a push to move to Azure, Amazon Web Services or a similar cloud infrastructure service? What about the upgrade to OpenEdge 12?
In this presentation we’ll be demonstrating how Office 365 or other OAuth2 authentication providers can be used to replace the login dialog in an OpenEdge GUI application.
