4D Inc., the US distributor of 4th Dimension and the 4D family of relational database products, have thrown their collective hat in the ring in support of Sophisticated Circuits’ UpBeat technology plug-in for the 4D Developer community.
UpBeat is a technology from Sophisticated Circuits that allows “subtle” problems within an application to be caught and responded to without waiting for either complete failure or human intervention. The 4D UpBeat Plug-in can be downloaded from the Sophisticated Circuits Web site.
The 4D UpBeat Plug-in will offer a way for 4D Developers to “conveniently” monitor the “health and well being” of their software processes from inside the 4D application themselves. 4D will include the 4D UpBeat Plug-in on future developer CD distributions, according to Brendan Coveney, president and CEO, 4D Inc.
“4D is focused on providing tools for the efficient deployment of successful applications,” he said in a statement. “Sophisticated Circuits’ technology gives our 4D developers a competitive advantage by providing the ability to deploy solid solutions with lower ongoing costs and a higher return on investment.”
