Users of Software AG’s Natural, Adabas and Network products will be offered the chance to take on UnixWare clients or possibly servers following the promise of support for Univel’s operating system as early as the end of this year. It’s all part of responding to one of the major issues facing businesses today, said Ken Burrows, managing director of Software AG’s local distributor, SPL Australia Pty Ltd – how to integrate powerful local network-based environments with current production systems. According to Burrows, Software AG is building the next generation of distributed programs with graphical front-ends. It’s a significant endorsement for Univel from one of the large system world’s software heavyweights, with over 4,500 installations worldwide for its Natural generator. Asia/Pacific Unix Update
