Why would I want to use BridgeWorks?
If you want to connect your desktop- and web-based users with your mission-critical OpenVMS applications, BridgeWorks may be for you. Your OpenVMS applications typically represent huge investments in resources and are repositories of valuable business logic. BridgeWorks can help protect these investments by integrating them with Windows and the web. Rewriting your application or porting existing code and data to new operating systems can be resource-intensive and risky. HP BridgeWorks encapsulates your original application’s logic without porting it and usually without altering it. The core business logic within your trusted applications remains where it has always been, in its fully tested OpenVMS environment. After componentizing, you can evolve your application’s functionality by adding routines, either in your OpenVMS environment or elsewhere in your distributed environment.
