Description

Liant is committed to leveraging its technology and the knowledge and talents of its people to deliver and support high-quality software tools that facilitate the development and operation of business information systems. By meeting this commitment, Liant will enable its customers to rapidly and efficiently realize the benefits of modern computer architectures.As a leading provider of business application development tools for over 20 years, Liant is uniquely qualified to develop and deliver products that help transform legacy business applications and processes into modern and robust distributed application software systems.As we enter the sixth decade of the computer age, almost every business has a data processing legacy consisting of computer systems and application programs whose origin spans periods from five to thirty or more years. Conversely, almost every one of these companies has built, or is building, new application systems using technology that is maturing on an almost daily basis. These companies are planning and attempting to develop connections between these new applications and customers, suppliers, and employees using both the companies' internal networks and the worldwide Internet. Considering the number of monolithic, host-based, mission-critical applications that form the information and automation foundation of major corporations, billions of lines of this legacy source code must be either re-engineered or integrated into new applications. Total re-engineering is impractical for most companies, due to the cost, risk, and time it takes to duplicate the functions of existing systems. Even if application programming productivity were to be increased dramatically, the complete replacement of existing applications would take most businesses many years and require a substantial investment in excess of normal operating costs. Further complicating this situation, many early adopters of modern client/server development tools have hit unexpected obstacles of application performance and scalability. Often these new tools alone have proven to fall short of supporting the development of mission-critical business information systems.
