Empowers Developers to Build the Next Generation of Business
Applications and Address Mobile, Social and Internet of Things
BEDFORD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Progress
(NASDAQ: PRGS), today announced a new appserver for developing and
deploying next generation applications, the Progress® Pacific™
Application Server (PAS) for OpenEdge® product. This next generation
technology brings core systems and applications together with a
high-productivity runtime environment, enabling enterprise developers to
bridge the gap between yesterday's mission-critical applications and the
innovative technology needs of today's organizations.
The Pacific Application Server for OpenEdge product provides an
enterprise-class web/application server that simplifies the task of
creating, deploying and operating business applications. It operates in
environments that range from a single instance business application, up
to a fully scalable cloud environment hosting multiple applications in a
multi-tenant environment. It is designed to address the development and
deployment requirements of a hybrid world (on-premise and the cloud).
For partners operating in a SaaS business model, the PAS for OpenEdge
product provides a scalable and cloud-ready server that optimizes
operations and reduces management costs. The modern application
development platform unifies all of the Progress products into a single
application server technology giving customers a familiar programming
model, increased communications, simple/consistent installations and
easier management. Most of today's applications need a range of services
and it's very costly and time consuming to re-invent these services each
time, the PAS for Openedge product reduces the total cost of ownership
(TCO) for Progress customers and partners by reducing the efforts of
rewriting existing applications/services and allowing them to focus on
innovation.

Michael Fechner, managing director at Consultingwerk, Ltd said: "We're
excited to bring the benefits of the Pacific AppServer for OpenEdge
product to our customer base - it will be a huge step forward for our
SmartComponent Library users. Simplified legacy code modernization, new
session management capabilities and finally, improved application
performance and scalability supported by an easy deployment process."
Jerry Rulli, president, OpenEdge business unit at Progress said: "We're

interact with consumer information. This proliferation of social
channels, mobility and cloud computing calls for a next generation
application architecture that didn't exist until now. The Progress
Pacific App Server brings together core systems and applications -
giving OpenEdge application users the back-end support they need, while
also addressing the needs of application developers as they build
forward thinking systems of engagement."
