New features support application modernization and Oracle JD Edwards World development, automate migration from legacy change management systems.
With powerful, yet affordable MDCMS 7.1, IBM i shops can quickly gain new capabilities that make software updates and integrating new versions of third-party applications much easier.
MDCMS 7.1 offers the ability to easily cross-reference, check-out, and deploy Soft Components (control tables) used by 4GLs, case tools, middleware processes, and menus. Developers using Oracle JD Edwards World can now take advantage of Midrange Dynamics’ comprehensive workflow and change management features—without the need for macros or awkward interfaces. MDCMS is compatible with every release of Oracle® JD Edwards World, including A9.3.
In addition to seamless integration with Oracle JD Edwards World, MDCMS 7.1 includes enhanced SQL handling, many new MDWorkflow features for Project and Task management, and automated, table-based tools to ease migration from legacy change management systems.
Designed with Integration and Ease of Use in Mind
A mature and feature-rich change management solution, MDCMS for IBM i-based applications and multiplatform environments is a great fit for those who want to move to a new change management solution or handle additional workload by bringing other platforms under change management.
“The product is solid, and the support we've received has been great. We believe Midrange Dynamics has a solid commitment to their product, which gives us a lot of confidence in relying on it for our change management, says Dave Easton, VP of IT for MBS Textbook Exchange, Inc.
“We speak with many prospects who are concerned that they have too many ongoing projects to take time to implement change management, and we welcome the chance to show what MDCMS can do for them with our free Proof of Concept,” says Midrange Dynamics Managing Director Michael Morgan. “In most cases, if they invest just a week to install, analyze, configure, educate, and implement, they can immediately save months of time, and benefit from clean, automated, and fully audited software deployments,” says Mr. Morgan.
A Totally Open Solution
MDCMS and its MDOpen Open Systems plug-in can be used with any Eclipse-based platform, and they are compatible with Rational Developer for i.
