Re: Curious about Web deployment

Cyndi,

I see a few products have been plugged in the good replies you've had to
date so here is one more (& yes we are partners for the product but have
nothing to gain as it's not in our area!) you gotta evaluate: LANSA For The
Web, for the following reasons:
1. SYNON migration tools
2. Choice of serving from IIS on NT or WebSphere on the 400,single tier or n
tier (you just may want the choice of being able to ditch that NT box)
3. TCP/IP or SNA connect to 400 with no need for MQ
4. CGI or JSP implementation
5. Performance & scaleability
6. Large no. of reference sites, learning curve etc. etc.
Check out their site at www.lansa,com
