WhiteLight gets brighter

by Eliot Bergson

Palo Alto, CA Ð Organizations that write mission-critical custom apps can now model their own business operations along an object-oriented paradigm.

WhiteLight/Engineer 1.1 from WhiteLight Systems allows managers and staff to build a shared model of the organization from a common library of business objects. The resulting business model can show changes in the firm's structure as they occur.

Applications built on the business-model objects enable personnel to access and manipulate information, in a variety of formats, for their function or department. The common object-oriented structure is designed to ensure accuracy and consistency in storing and updating the information.

The new release features updated functionality, including object linking, scripting, and savable workspaces. It runs on black and white hardware and sells by contract starting at $29,995, which includes training and two developer and five end-user seats.
