May 8, 2007 – London, UK -
BlueFinity International, a member of the Mpower1 Group of
companies, is pleased to announce the general availability
of the latest version of its extensive toolset designed for
creating Microsoft .NET-based applications requiring access
to MultiValue databases: mv.NET Version 3.5.
The main thrust of the new version 3.5 release of mv.NET is
an extensive re-work of the core session management
components in order to build upon the already sound basis of
mv.NET in the areas of system reliability, performance,
resource utilization, scalability and overall robustness.
“We think that users will appreciate the
effort which has gone into the enhancements to the session
management component, as this is a unique and important
aspect of the product”, explains David Cooper, Lead
Developer at BlueFinity International. “We are starting to
see some very large installations going live and the extra
features within the session manager will allow them greater
flexibility in managing large user communities.”
As well as setting the foundation for advanced session
management as the product moves forward, mv.NET Version 3.5
marks the start of a significant investment by Bluefinity
into Web application development tools for MultiValue
developers wishing to use Visual Studio as their application
development environment. It also sets the foundation for
the adoption of the new Windows Communication Foundation (WCF)
and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) technologies
introduced in .NET framework 3.0.
With Version 3.5 also comes full support for AJAX within the
Web Binding Objects component - a feature which has been
eagerly awaited by the market. This innovation gives
MultiValue developers access to a wide range of Web
development techniques for improving the look, feel and
operation of Web-based applications. “AJAX gives developers
a framework for significantly enhancing the usability and
interactivity of Web applications,” Cooper says.
Although AJAX is not a brand new technological initiative,
with the release of Microsoft's ASP.NET AJAX framework 1.0,
many view it as coming of age. “mv.NET provides users of
Visual Studio with tremendous time and complexity savings
when creating AJAX-oriented web applications that access
backend MultiValue databases.”
A series of other refinements and additional
functionality are included within the release. Visit
