Profound Logic Software has released Atrium, the newest addition to the company's suite of modernization tools. Atrium is an enterprise portal for the IBM i community that lets companies securely tie multiple applications together into a single browser interface. The portal's interface offers a straightforward navigation system that includes the use of drop-down trees, accordion panels, toolbars, and pull-down menus. It lets system administrators tailor the interface visually, as well as set up authority-based permissions. Users can open multiple applications in a single session using Atrium's tabbed layout.

"Green-screen applications require users to navigate through several screens or maintain multiple open sessions on your desktop just to access different sections of your application." says David Russo, project lead at Profound Logic Software. "With Atrium, we eliminate all the extra steps and allow users to access multiple screens from one single interface without any difficulty."

The portal provides a secure framework to house web applications and modernized green-screens under a single sign-on tied to either IBM i user profiles or a custom set of user names and passwords. All of the security features native to the IBM i are automatically preserved, while additional administrator functionality further protects the company's applications and data by ensuring that access is only granted to authorized users. Atrium also integrates with all the tools in Profound Logic's Modernization Suite, including RPGsp, the rapid web development tool for RPG programmers, and Genie, the on-the-fly green-screen modernization tool.
