IdeaBlade
announces
version
3.0
of
the
DevForce
Productivity
Solution,
now
available
for
Microsoft
Visual
Studio
2005.
Emeryville,
Calif.
- November
7,
2005
- IdeaBlade
Corporation
today
announced
the
3.0
version
of
the
DevForce
Productivity
Solution
for
Microsoft
Visual
Studio
2005.
The
new
release
improves
the
DevForce
tools,
components,
and
blueprints
for
building
datadriven
applications.
Developers
can
focus
on
the
business
aspects
of
the
application
instead
of
the
infrastructure,
thus
accelerating
time
to
market,
reducing
cost,
and
improving
their
chances
for
success.
“Developers
can
deliver
compelling
enterprise
applications
more
quickly
when
they
use
DevForce
with
Visual
Studio
2005,” said
Christopher
Flores,
group
product
manager
of
the
.NET
Developer
Product
Marketing
Group
at
Microsoft
Corp. “Microsoft
is
pleased
with
the
level
of
integration
between
DevForce
and
Visual
Studio
2005.
When
used
with
Visual
Studio
2005,
DevForce
simplifies
the
development
of
distributed
solutions.”
DevForce
provides
Internet-connected,
data-driven
applications
with
a robust,
scalable
infrastructure
that
includes
object
relational
persistence,
client-side
caching,
off-line
execution,
n-tier
deployment,
model-view-controller
interfaces,
and
Service
Oriented
Architectures.
Graphical
design
tools
that
plug
into
Visual
Studio
2005
speed
development
and
reduce
errors.
Application
blueprints
guide
developers
toward
proven
designs.
This
means
application
developers
write
less
code,
more
quickly,
and
with
greater
confidence.
There
is
less
to
maintain,
less
to
support,
and
less
to
go
wrong.
“Our
customers
report
saving
70
percent
or
more
of
their
development
time
using
their
existing
teams.
This
is
often
the
difference
between
success
and
failure
for
an
application,” said
Albert
Wang,
CEO
of
IdeaBlade.
“The
.NET
Framework
2.0
is
powerful,
but
building
applications
is
still
a challenge
for
many
organizations,” said
Billy
Hollis,
a Microsoft
Regional
Director
and
IdeaBlade
Technical
Advisory
Council
member. “Developers
need
an
application
framework
such
as
DevForce.
Otherwise
they
will
waste
months
reinventing
generic
functionality
instead
of
working
on
specific
business
problems.”
Developers
and
architects
can
download
DevForce
Express,
an
unrestricted,
free
version
for
basic
client/server
applications
