Should we pay attention to iFusion.net from LANSA

One basic statement from LANSA always ring true in my ears, "It is the data!"  What that means is that you need to apply the same definition, business rules and regulations for your data regardless of developer, programming language, platform and database.  Most importantly, do it in one place--the LANSA Repository!

In the pure LANSA world  this has always been true.  However, the real world is that not everybody is going to use the LANSA RDML for their development all the time (even though I think they should).  They are going to leverage their existing skill set wherever possible.  

Now with iFusion.net from LANSA others languages are going to enjoy the joys of the LANSA Repository.  It will also eliminate some internal aggressive discussions that often occur within most shops on what tool to use.  No matter how often the underlying technology changes, there are no changes necessary to the business logic.  Therefore, the answer is YES...pay attention to iFusion.net.  Learn more by attending one of LANSA's webinars or visit http://www.ifusion.net/
