In the current information technology environment users expect application software systems to
• Be accessible anywhere there is Internet access
• Be usable on any of the popular hardware and software platforms, e.g. Windows, Android, Apple – desktop computer, laptop computer, tablet computer or smart phone
• Require no local installation or updates
The solution for APL+Win programmers is to web-enable their application systems by creating a browser-based user interface which accesses server-side processing implemented in APL+Win as a web service. This design will preserve and enhance the algorithms and business rules supported by APL+Win and extend the availability of this valuable asset to additional users and venues.
A client-side, browser-based web page which uses javascript can call server-side APL+Win functions using the jQuery javascript library and APLNext Application Server.
