With the granting of an additional
U.S. patent, Base One continues to build the case for its
transactional Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA)
New York, NY - March 23, 2007 - Base One International
Corporation, a leading supplier of rapid application
development software for Microsoft Visual Studio .NET, has
received another U.S. Patent for its high-performance database
technology. This patent covers a method of constructing fault
tolerant, loosely-coupled services, using databases from
Microsoft, Oracle, IBM, Sybase, and MySQL. Base One's unique,
"database-centric" design simplifies application programming,
while providing a higher degree of reliability, efficiency,
and scalability than conventional approaches to distributed
processing.
Cluster and grid computing systems traditionally have relied
upon a layer of message queuing technologies to distribute and
coordinate work across multiple processors. In
mission-critical database applications, it becomes necessary
to introduce a global transaction monitor, which can
significantly reduce performance and scalability. The Base One
Foundation Component Library (BFC) eliminates the need for
specialized messaging functions, enabling distributed
processing queues to be managed more reliably and efficiently,
without the drawbacks of a global transaction monitor.
"What we've done is to exploit the core strengths of today's
commercial database systems, especially with regard to
efficient transaction processing." said Steven Asherman,
President and Chief Technology Officer of Base One. "By
devising a service-oriented architecture that addresses
end-to-end transactional integrity, we've made it much easier
and less expensive to build highly reliable, large-scale
applications."
BFC is a comprehensive RAD framework of components and tools
for building web and Windows database applications, as well as
back office processing and data interchange between systems.
Employing a distinctive, cross-platform data dictionary, it
provides enhanced security, optimization, and maintainability,
making it easier and quicker to develop robust, scalable
applications. For over ten years, Base One customers have
successfully used BFC for low cost, database-intensive,
distributed computing.
