Summary

When developing or looking to host high-performance applications for the Web, developers and organizations no longer must choose a compromise between performance and ease of development. With LDS, you get both. LDS encapsulates application server functionality, a development framework and developer libraries all into one very high-performance application development engine written entirely in C++. Incorporating the latest web technologies, LDS can be used to develop high-powered Web Services, the next wave in the internet continuum. LDS facilitates the creation of web applications and services with little effort and/or knowledge required by the developer. The underlying complexities of developing applications and services for the web are exposed through simple functions and are further enhanced by a Project Wizard that handles all context and inclusions based on user-entered parameters, thereby exposing only those services required in your application. Application logging and performance metrics are available to monitor and optimally configure your application environment. In addition, the light-weight hardware requirement of LAS makes it an optimal and cost-effective solution for any size of organization looking to materially benefit from moving their applications and services to the web. Furthermore, Webogy has a library of pre-fabricated business solutions available that were completed developed using LDS development framework and libraries. Examples include Issue Tracking, Web Chat and Message Board modules.
