ASTA Hitchhiker's guide to the wireless

Provide Compression Options out of respect for #2

Support Web Services on both client and servers

Provide Encryption Options to be able to operate securely

There shall be no administration required (Zero Admin rule)

Authenticate at the server by username and password and be able to uniquely identifyremote devices

Once a client app is deployed it should be able to update itself automatically andefficiently

Be able to work connected and disconnected with sync technology to bridge thosestates

Work with the most popular Development tools

Work with any Database, on any Platform and provide a way to move data between anydatabase and any device

Have a component architecture so that the same techniques can be used crossplatform

1 ASTA 3

The Internet Second Wave is here and the ASTA Technology Framework provides thefoundation to not only build scalable rich, thin client applications but to add collaborativetools and full cross platform support beyond the Desktop

Most ASTA developers are Database Application Developers and start with a databasecentric view of the world ASTA wants to remind you that "There is more to Heaven andEarth Horatio, than Win32 Database applications"

ASTA allows you to build cross platform, thin client, zero admin, secure, scalable

Database applications that can run over the Internet We want you to concentrate oncoding your application rather than dealing with low level issues like threading or writingSQL update statements

Below is a list of general Topics covering ASTA that you can refer to, in order for you tosee what is possible And ASTA is committed to making what is possible, easy to

implement

1.1 ASTA 3 New Features

In Memory DataSets

Index Support All ASTA datasets now have indexes for findkey and

set range support and optimized locate calls to useindexes where available

Extended Contraints We've extended constraint support for all ASTA

DataSetsNew

Extended XML Support ADO and Midas formats supported using the native

ASTA XML parser or the Microsoft Parser using a

"thunk" layer built into ASTA 3Filters Optimized ASTA filters were completely re-written with a smaller

footprint and less depenencies on Borland code

Aggregates DataSets support Aggregates like Sum and Avg

NoSQLFields property on AstaClientDataSets allows forcolumns to be tagged so they don't generate SQL Inthe past columns had to be tagged as readonly

Security
