Enhancing the HP e3000 User Interface

Speedware Autobahn—The Leader in Web-enabling HP e3000 Applications
Speedware Autobahn offers the first and only Web Application Server specifically designed for
the HP e3000. Speedware Autobahn’s Open Web Architecture integrates current Web
technology into your HP e3000 environment while leaving the door open for future technologies.
Productivity
The robust development environment also accelerates the application development cycle since
it contains many time-saving wizards; applications can now be Web-enabled in a matter of
hours; complete projects in a matter of days.
Open to Change
Speedware Autobahn’s Open Web architecture isolates the program code from the presentation
layer and lets developers focus on application requirements instead of Web integration issues.
This Open Web architecture protects your environment from technological change since it
allows for the integration of the latest and the greatest Web technologies on the market such as
Java, ActiveX, JavaScript, VB Script, Flash, VRML, XML, HDML, NSAPI, ISAPI, Dreamweaver,
FrontPage, Apache, LINUX and many more..
Architecture for Scalable Distributed Computing
Speedware Autobahn’s n-tier model of scalability allows you to precisely adjust your
application’s capacity to a multi-platform environment that incorporates configuration
parameters such as firewalls, secure networks and multiple server platforms. Speedware
Autobahn’s auto-deployment feature automatically distributes application components to the
appropriate platforms. This development environment supports secure e-commerce servers that
encrypt transmissions between business servers and Web browsers.
Speedware Web Application Server
Speedware Autobahn supports a unique application server architecture that offers HP e3000
users a key advantage: Web applications can run natively on the HP e3000 providing
accessibility to all local databases including Image, ALLBASE, KSAM, KSAMXL etc.
The Speedware development environment make full use of all HP e3000 resources while
supporting vital development functions such as calling subroutines (written for your OS or in
other languages such as C or COBOL), launching batch processes, integrating existing legacy
systems, executing operating system commands and running other programs.
Session Persistence and State Management
The Web is connectionless or in other words stateless—links between Web browsers and
Servers are not maintained. Speedware Autobahn overcomes this limitation by incorporating
state management that distinguishes user sessions and tracks where a user is at any time within
an application. This is ideal for e-commerce and e-service solutions since it securely maintains
the integrity of individual transactions.
