IBM extends its DB2 Everyplace database engine to developers using AppForge Mobile VB. AppForge MobileVB works as an add-on to the existing Visual Studio environment and can target Pocket PC, Palm and Symbian OS operating systems. Read on for the entire press release!
"ATLANTA - (December 5, 2002) - Enterprise developers can now incorporate IBM's world-class database and synchronization support into their mobile and wireless applications. IBM utilized the AppForge Piedmont Framework to enrich its DB2 Everyplace offering with AppForge MobileVB, enabling millions of Visual Studio developers to create rich applications that run on more than ninety percent of the world's smart phones and PDAs.
The new services created by this integration are available on all platforms supported by MobileVB including devices based on PalmOS, PocketPC, and the SymbianOS operating system. Through MobileVB, Visual Studio programmers can leverage their Visual Studio and DB2 Everyplace relational skills to develop applications using a single code base, independent of the target mobile platform.
"IBM's support of MobileVB through their DB2 Everyplace technology reaffirms our commitment to developing strategic relationships that will benefit AppForge MobileVB customers," says Bob Holt, AppForge's Piedmont Product Manager. Mr. Holt continues, "With this combined technology, an enterprise developer can create useful mobile applications that can truly leverage corporate data providing real-time information to mobile associates."
