Profound Logic COMMON '17 Press Release

Posted by Tim Losee on May 2, 2017 7:00:00 AM

This weekend begins the 2017 COMMON Annual Meeting and Exposition (May 7th-10th 2017) in Orlando Florida. This annual meeting is world's largest gathering of IBM i professionals, educators, and software vendors. Profound Logic, a leader in IBM i Enterprise Modernization solutions, is pleased to be attending once again this year. 

At this years COMMON meeting Profound Logic has several new and exciting announcements to make:

  • We will unveil the release of Profound.js 2.0 with Connector and Enhanced JumpStart Module.
  • Our IBM i Evangelists Scott Klement, Brian May, Liam Allan, and Alex Roytman, will lead nearly 20 educational sessions and hands-on labs.
  • Profound Logic customer San Diego Regional Center will be announced as the runner-up winner of COMMON's Annual Innovation Award.

Along with the above announcements, Profound Logic will once again be a proud Elite sponsor at the COMMON Conference and a sponsor of COMMON's IT Executive Conference as well as a vendor in the Exposition Hall. Attendees can meet the Profound Logic Team at Booth #504 for live product demonstrations and register for prizes. 


 Profound.js 2.0 with Connector and Enhanced JumpStart Module

At last years COMMON, Profound Logic announced the plans to support Node.js for IBM i modernization with a new product, Profound.js. For this year's meeting we are announcing our expansion of the capabilities of our Node.js products with the release of our Profound.js 2.0. 

The most popular coding language in the world today is JavaScript and Node.js is a server-side JavaScript that works native with an IBM i platform. In addition, Node.js supports an agile approach to IBM i modernization that can help your business avoid risky and costly efforts to re-write your code or migrate off of the platform all together. 

"The benefits of using Node.js on IBM i are numerous," says Alex Roytman, Profound Logic CEO. "With Profound.js, companies will be able to integrate new or converted Node.js applications with their existing RPG applications, as well as open up a whole new world of open-source possibilities on IBM i, including Watson and Internet of Things. They will be able to retain their existing IBM i investment while enjoying the latest in cutting edge business capabilities. It really is the best of both worlds."

 Profound.js 2.0 will now be available as a standalone, downloadable product and include the following new modules:

  • Free Node.js Framework and Visual Designer
  • Commercial Connector module that provides connectivity to IBM i resources like DB2, programs, commands, service programs, and operating system API.
  • Enhanced JumpStart module (available with Profound UI) that enables users to automatically generate Node.js code, as well as modern RPG and PHP code.

Profound Evangelists and Educational Sessions

Profound Logic's IBM i Evangelists will be giving nearly 20 sessions and hands-on labs at this year's COMMON Conference. We're also giving in-booth demonstrations and presentations on all three days of the expo, in Booth #504. The complete list of sessions can be found at: www.profoundlogic.com/COMMON17.
