jVantage is a visual web development tool that builds applications from a business model perspective, meaning that you begin by defining your object model first, then further specify the properties and behavior of those objects. In plainer terms, it means that you first identify all of the applicable nouns of your applications, then specify how they relate to each other. So, to build a simple online car lot, for example, you might identify nouns such as; car lot, vehicles, sales people and customers. Then specify relationships that create the application's structure by indicating that...

• A car lot has vehicles.
• A car lot employs sales people.
• Sales people sell vehicles to customers.

At this point, you will have already created a functional web application. Then, you can add additional behaviors from within the jVantage development environment and by adding your own custom programming code.

More about the jVantage platform...

• jVantage is based on the Sun Microsystems Java EE platform, which means that all applications built with jVantage are also Java EE-based.
• The underlying jVantage Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) can be openly leveraged by your applications – even those that were not built using the jVantage development tools.
• The applications you build with jVantage automatically support context sensitive help, keyword searching, SSL, access control, form validation, data dictionaries, triggers and multiple integration paths.
• Since applications built with jVantage are Java EE applications too, all the scalability, performance and security benefits of the platform are automatically intrinsic to your applications.
• jVantage does not tie you to proprietary technologies - not even ours. jVantage employs a completely open development paradigm that allows you to integrate your jVantage applications with new or existing systems in a loosely-coupled manner.
