Coming Changes

CADRE customers can take immediate advantage of the Internet or their local intranet as a new medium of communication to implement thin client technology.

Components

Three components make up the PL/B Application Server suite:

1. The application Engine is deployed and configured on the host server. The host server may be either Windows or Unix based. Application code (programs) and data files may also be on this server.


2. The PL/B Client Interface is installed on each client station. This station must be running Windows. Typically, the Client Interface is installed via the Internet. Since its size is small, it only takes a short time to download even on slower dial-up lines. Should an update of the client software ever be required, the server can be configured to automatically upload the software upon connection by the client.


3. The client and host communicate via TCP/IP. Thus both machines must be configured support this protocol.

Once the Application Engine is installed on the host machine, a small interface program is installed on the client. Upon execution of the Client Interface, a TCP/IP connection is made to the server and the CADRE PL/B application begins. All program object code and data remain on the server.

Benefits

• Deployment - Since only the small Client Interface is installed remotely, deployment of applications is done on the local server. No CADRE programs or data files are installed remotely. The Client Interface may be deployed via a simple Internet download.
• Security - The Client Interface communicates with the Application Engine via TCP/IP protocol. The server can be configured to limit access to specific remote addresses. Additionally, the communication protocol between the client and the server is encoded and compressed.
• Scalability - The Application Server provides a degree of scalability not seen before. Small remote offices can access corporate data without the need for complicated servers or communication devices, system administrative costs, or additional personnel. The corporation can rest assured that the valuable data is secure and available to authorized users. Large enterprise users can employ additional servers as needed to support new applications or additional users.
• Performance - Since no browser technology is employed in this solution, the client and server processes can be tuned for optimum performance. Communication messages are compressed and intelligently buffered adding to the overall performance. Beyond the operating systems, there is no reliance on external programs.

Server systems are available for Windows 95 and up, Linux and most Unix systems.

CADRE can also be accessed via Virtual Private Network (VPN)

Many of the CADRE programs are now graphical User Interfaces (GUI). We continue to migrate remaining CADRE programs to GUI.
