    What Is Data Façade?

    Did you ever had a need to quickly put together an application, to front end a database, providing secured web based CRUD (Create, Read,Update & Delete) capability? Usually these efforts take hundreds of developer hours. Due to lack of funding and/or time, some settle for less flexible options such as Microsoft Access based solutions or spreadsheets. Others keep on postponing implementations loosing operational efficiency.

    Data Façade is a ready to run, out of the box solution that can be used to Web enable your databases within minutes.All you do is setup a data source, pick the table(s) and columns to be exposed and their visual aspects, all thru an easy to use Web interface and you'll have an application ready to use.

    Data Façade is an On-Demand Delivery (ODD) framework for implementing data driven web based applications. With Data Façade you can provide secured web access to your existing data, or build new applications with minimal effort and time. The Hot configurable Web User Interface layer with rich feature set provides a Façade for data sources simplifying CRUD (Create, Read, Update and Delete) functionality.
