  • Reassessing Client/Server Tools and Technologies Lawrence K
    Previous 4-04-40 Reassessing Client/Server Tools and Technologies Lawrence K. Cooper John S. Whetstone Payoff Client/server computing has not yet realized its promise of faster applications development, reduced maintenance costs, and enterprise scalability. This article's review of client/server technologies from the perspective of whether they cause developers to focus more on the tool than on the business problem helps IS and business managers appreciate what each technology can and cannot do. Understanding that client/server computing is more a concept than a technology is key to the proper evaluation of the tools and strategies flooding the marketplace. Introduction During the past 10 years, client/server architecture and technologies have been hailed as spelling the demise of the mainframe-centric view of computing. Corporations purchased PC by the truckload and bought myriad development tools, languages, and frameworks for developers and users alike. Products with descriptions such as GUI-builders, front ends, gateways, back ends, middleware, and glue flooded the client/server marketplace. Applications were supposed to be able to be developed faster and maintenance costs were supposed to decrease. Clearly this has not been the case: Client/server computing has proven to be both a boon and a bust. Although it provides more flexibility, it requires more computing resources, faster networks, and higher maintenance. According to a recent Gartner study, client/server computing costs often exceed mainframe-centric computing by up to 70%. Client/server computing also poses an abundance of data security problems. Current technologies are at a middle stage between the rigorous structures of mainframes and the total openness implicit in many of the new architectures.

  • Price Changes: CATIA V5 Automotive Extensions/Vehicle
    Price Changes in Monthly License Charges (MLC) for Selected Price Metrics on Selected IBM System z Software Programs Announcement Letter Number PA15-166 (516-009) Europe Middle East and Africa Table of Contents Announcement Letter No. PA15-166 (516-009) dated October 13, 2015 Price Changes in Monthly License Charges (MLC) for Selected Price Metrics on Selected IBM System z Software Programs Effective date: February 1, 2016 Overview Terms and Conditions Announcement Countries Announcement Letter No. PA15-166 (516-009) dated October 13, 2015 Price Changes in Monthly License Charges (MLC) for Selected Price Metrics on Selected IBM System z Software Programs Overview IBM® announces increases in monthly license charges (MLC) on select operating system and select middleware software programs and their features. For the affected programs, the price changes will only apply to the following monthly license charge (MLC) software pricing metrics: FWLC, TWLC, PSLC, PSF Printer Block Tiers, Per System with VOQ and non variable charge. The price increase for a given program will be approximately 4% depending on the features selected. In addition, IBM® announces an increase in the monthly license charges for IP Transform AFP2PCL V2.1 (5655P19), IP Transform AFP2PDF V2.1 (5655P20) and IP Transform AFP2PS V2.1 (5655P21) which will apply to all software billing metrics. This increase will align the price of these products with the price of their respective replacement products Print Transform AFPXPCL (5655TF2), Print Transform AFPXPDF (5655TF1) and Print Transform AFPXPS (5655TF3) and will reflect approximately a 13% to 25% increase depending on the server type. The timing of this announcement allows most clients to understand these changes before budgeting for the following year.
