Editor's Notes
- #4: Visual COBOL. Lets look in more detail at how we can tackle the challenges of skills, efficiency, mobile, cloud and architecture in a little detail. Visual COBOL helps enable Efficiency through Faster code compile, edit and debug process 30% improvement in developer productivity Improved development team collaboration Visual COBOL allows the development organization to operate more efficiency by taking advantage of industry standard tooling. (See OM Logistics Customer Story as reference)
- #6: Visual COBOL helps maximise development resources by: Making the COBOL language more accessible and easier to use through its integration with Visual Studio and Eclipse Attracting a new talent pool Enabling the next generation of developers to quickly learn the COBOL language (See Nationwide Customer Story as reference)
- #10: Visual COBOL helps organizations embrace the Cloud platform and realize the following benefits: 25% improvement in time to market Increased application reliability, availability and serviceability Rapid service delivery (See TrasMed Customer Story as reference)
- #12: Visual COBOL helps organizations adopt new technologies such as mobile by: Building vibrant user interfaces to deliver a better user experience Connecting core COBOL systems to new technologies such as SOA, Web Services, and HTML-5 Providing access to COBOL based information from mobile devices (See Treasury of the Republic Customer Story as reference)
- #14: Visual COBOL helps organizations move to new architectures. Benefits would include: Reduce your Time to Delivery by up to 50% Flexible application deployment & greater choice Build once. Deploy anywhere! For example, get to .NET and JVM instantaneously (See Zuchetti as Customer Story reference)
