Rapidly Web Enable your IBM i 5250 Applications in a Cost Conscious Market

With today's limited IT budgets working on projects that deliver the most value with the least amount of investment and risk is very important. One of the most cost effective projects you can do is to web enable your existing green screen applications.

In the first part of this webcast you'll hear from Craig Pelkie. Craig will explain why you need to move away from green screen applications and move towards delivering web applications by sharing the answers to these questions with you:

• Why should you web enable your existing green screen applications?
• What skills will you need?
• What are some of the obstacles you might come across?

Duncan Kenzie, President and CTO of BCD Technical Services, presents BCD's modernization product, Presto, that helps you rapidly web enable your IBM i green screen applications.

You'll see how Presto can help you:

• Rapidly transform your IBM i green screen applications to web pages without changing the underlying RPG, COBOL or DDS.
• Further enhance screens and improve navigation with images, links and calendar pop ups.
• Add functionality to your web enabled green screen applications using Ajax.
• Incorporate your web enabled applications with your other web applications and web content with BCD's Nexus Portal.

This unique Webcast is offered as part of the RPG and Beyond Web conference.
