Re: EGL: Integration or Migration?

Joe,

We'd be more interested in building web apps anew as our RPG apps are vendor-supplied and they have built their own web front end using Jacarta. But we still need to build custom web apps to the vendor's and other files.

Joe,

Sorry, it's taken me a while to get back to this one. We're definitely
more inclined to Integration. We want to interface to existing IBM i
applications. We may add some new databases and then put an EGL front-end
on them, but we're definitely leaning to using ILE back-end logic--COBOL
or RPG.
