"PRIDE INFORMATION FACTORY: READY FOR OS/2 WARP SERVER"
SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA (February 26, 1996) - M. Bryce & Associates, Inc.
(MBA) is pleased to announce the availability of their "PRIDE" Information
Factory on IBM's new OS/2 Warp Server platform. The "PRIDE" product features
methodologies and tools for developing and managing information resources on
an enterprise-wide basis. According to MBA's Director of Marketing, Tim Bryce,
"IBM's OS/2 Warp Server offers the performance and stability a company needs
to perform true client/server computing. For our company in particular, it
offers the ideal platform to implement an integrated systems development
environment such as our "PRIDE" Information Factory."
At the heart of the "PRIDE" software is an OS/2 Warp Server based repository
to inventory and re-use information resources (data, systems, and business
components). The repository works in cooperation with peripheral "PRIDE" tools
for systems planning and design, along with third-party application
development aids (e.g., CASE tools, program generators, report writers, etc.),
thereby providing a means to create a homogeneous development environment. To
illustrate, developers can analyze and design systems with tools on OS/2
client machines that tie into the "PRIDE" repository on an OS/2 Warp Server
machine.
The "PRIDE" Information Factory includes methodologies and tools in support of
Enterprise Engineering (for business systems planning), Information Systems
Engineering, and Data Base Engineering. Also included is an embedded Project
Management tool for planning, estimating, scheduling, time reporting, and
project control. The product is sold on a site license basis at $148K and
includes on-site training and consulting.
Commenting on IBM's recent OS/2 Warp Server announcement, Bryce said, "the
Server version of OS/2 is a shrewd product development by IBM. It marries the
best of both worlds together: OS/2 Warp and LAN Server, two proven
technologies that were meant for each other. We feel sorry for IBM's
competition in this area."
