WorkSpace combines the power of enterprise modeling with comprehensive tooling capabilities. It is a Java toolkit that integrates the most important design and development tools in an easy-to-use open-source framework. Enterprise modeling, database development, Web application development, services-oriented development and orchestration, and mobile development all come together for a complete and flexible solution for our clients’ workspace.
The WorkSpace Java toolkit integrates five design
anddevelopment tools in an easy-to-use open source framework.
It’s based on the industry-
leading open-source Eclipse framework. WorkSpace minimizes traditional
learning curves for development tooling.
Additional Eclipse plug-ins can co-exist with Sybase WorkSpace to
provide developers with the exact environment appropriate to their
business requirements.
BENEFITS
Gives Sybase customers a
single tooling environment for their Sybase servers.
Improves productivity with
customizable development environments.
Reduces errors and time spent
on mundane tasks.
Reduces the cost of software maintenance
through better design discipline.
Improves business agility
through faster, more flexible development.
Reduces the complexity of
combining legacy and services-oriented applications.
WorkSpace comes with a number of components to help you
accomplish your modeling and development tasks. These include:
Database Development
Database Development’s tools allow you to create, edit, save,
debug and execute procedural objects, messaging statements and SQL
scripts. From stored procedures you can derive database services to
integrate with business processes, messaging services or Web services.
And Database Development provides wizards to guide you through
constructing complex SQL syntax, procedural objects and messaging
constructs.
Data Federation
Data Federation lets you combine data from heterogeneous data sources.
You can provision data sources, build view models by dragging and
dropping input sources, operators and output targets, and deploy the
view models as data services. You can also use Data Federation to
create and manage your data catalogs
Web Application Development
Web Application Development uses the JavaServer™ Faces (JSF)
framework to enable the development, testing, debugging and deployment
of a Web application on a runtime server. You can build JavaServer
Pages (JSP) for JSF and HTML applications, enabling both visual and
code-oriented development. Web Application Development also provides an
integrated environment for incorporating DataWindow? technology
and building Web applications that interface with public SOAP service
invocations.
Services Development
Service Development tools allow you to create, discover, edit, share,
test, deploy and publish services. It can automatically create services
from data objects, Java components, PowerBuilder components, business
processes and messages.
Process Orchestration
You can use Process Orchestration to enable the orchestration of
events, activities and other services to provide an integration
solution. This component also allows you to create automated processes
from all different kinds of services, including ones from across the
enterprise that were not created by WorkSpace. Process Orchestration
also supports alert messaging and business activity monitoring.
Mobile Development
Mobile Development allows you to combine content form various sources,
customize the display for mobile devices and deliver applications on a
variety of mobile operating systems. It enables you to develop mobile
applications using dynamic content form websites, Web services,
JSPs/ASPs, XML sources, database elements and other sources. Custom
templates can be generated for PDA, BlackBerry, WAP-WML and WAP-HTML
mobile devices.
Studio
The Studio module includes all features in Database Development, Data
Federation, Web Application Development, Services Development, Process
Orchestration and Mobile Development components.
DataArchitect
This module includes the major data modeling components: Conceptual
Data Model (CDM), Physical Data Model (PDM), Information Liquidity
Model (ILM), XML Model (XSM) and Free Model (FRM).
DataArchitect
Enterprise
DataArchitect Enterprise includes both the enterprise repository and
the features in WorkSpace DataArchitect. The repository allows users to
share, manage and re-use modeling information securely across the
enterprise.
Designer
This module includes developer-centric modeling techniques specifically
designed for application developers using the Unified Modeling Language
(UML): the Object Oriented Model (OOM), Physical Data.Model (PDM),
Information Liquidity Model (ILM), XML Model (XSM) and Free Model (FRM)
features.
Designer
Enterprise
Designer Enterprise includes the enterprise repository, along with the
features in WorkSpace Designer. The repository allows users to share,
manage and re-use modeling information securely across the enterprise.
Designer
Studio
Designer Studio comprises all modeling techniques, including business
process models specifically designed for business analysts and non-IT
users. Designer Studio includes Business Process Model (BPM), Object
Oriented Model (OOM), Conceptual Data Model (CDM), Physical Data.Model
(PDM), Information Liquidity Model (ILM), XML Model (XSM) and Free
Model (FRM) features.
Designer
Studio Enterprise
Designer Studio Enterprise includes the enterprise repository as well
as the features in Designer Studio. The repository allows users to
share, manage and re-use modeling information securely across the
enterprise.
