AFP Express available!
Seebruck, March 21, 2005 – ProLib Software GmbH
announces a new member of the Active FoxPro Pages 3.0 family of
products. AFP Express is targeted at the FoxPro developer, who needs an
inexpensive development environment for intranet applications and for
extending existing Visual FoxPro applications with web features. The
feature set of AFP Express is basi-cally the same as of the well-known
product Active FoxPro Pages 3.0. AFP Express mainly differs in terms of
scalability and flexibility. The list price of
AFP Express is $99 US.
"AFP Express is the ideal platform if high
availability and scalability provided by our flagship Active FoxPro
Pages 3.0 are not your concerns", says Jürgen Wondzinski, CEO of ProLib
Software GmbH. "Praxis has shown that most AFP applications are intranet
applications. Creating a load balancing cluster, execution as a Windows
service, the flexibility of plugins and extended debug features aren't
needed for these applications. By omitting these features, we can offer
AFP Express as an inexpensive alternative, continues Jürgen Wondzinski.
A free, non-expiring evaluation
edition is available from our downloads
