Mpower1 Creates BlueFinity Application Services (BAS) for Outsourced MultiValue and .NET Application Development 

BAS has been established to perform application development for any MultiValue database or .NET customer who does not have the in-house skills or time to develop, migrate or enhance their systems themselves.   Development can either be provided as a one time project or as part of an outsourced development and support contract depending on the needs of the customer. BAS is able to provide a range of consultancy services, namely: 

  • The provision of system design specialists for design and architecture definition Assistance and advice in the planning of the solution sought

  • The provision of technical advice on toolsets, code, design and architecture 

  • The provision of experienced application development personnel to assist in the various aspects of product design, rollout and implementation 

  • Consultancy on Project Management 

  • In-depth expertise on both MultiValue and .NET technologies

Although BAS will utilize a number of programming languages and development tools from within the Mpower1 Group of Companies, the company particularly expect to leverage the use of mv.NET in the .NET development environment to produce applications. For more information, visit www.basintl.com.

April 2008
UK and USA locations

jBASE partner, BlueFinity International, will present two day long seminars in worldwide locations this April.

BlueFinity International supplies leading-edge software development tools and consultancy services to the MultiValue database and Microsoft .NET developer communities.  These seminars are designed to meet the needs of those new to BlueFinity and those who are looking for an in-depth technical demonstration of the advanced functionality.  The morning will provide a high level overview of the BlueFinity product range followed by a detailed roadmap covering the latest enhancements and previewing things to come. In the afternoon, BlueFinity developers drill down deeper into mv.NET and take a comprehensive detailed look at many of the mv.NET technical nuggets and how-tos in areas which are probably not a developer's first port of call with the product.   With powerful case studies of actual mv.NET applications given by users of the product and an extensive question and answer session with BlueFinity architects, this seminar is sure to have something to offer everyone from those investigating BlueFinity technology to existing customers alike.

The USA show will take place following International Spectrum in the same location on April 4, 2008.  Discounts are available for Spectrum attendees. For more information, go here: http://www.bluefinity.com/apr2008.html.
