This product allows you to access your D3 data live from your website.
Just click on a web page and have it run a Pick BASIC subroutine. Turn your D3 system into a Web Form Processing Server. Your Pick database will use one or more phantom ports to process connections from a web server.
You never have to leave BASIC.
Our Web Application Server only runs in D3 environments (D3/Linux, D3/AIX, D3/Windows).
Automatic Load Balancing, Monitoring and Failover Recovery
If a database connector (running as a phantom) goes into the debugger, this condition is detected and routed
around automatically. If this port comes back online, it will be detected also and put back into service by the front end automatically.
If enough database connectors go offline you will be alerted via text message.
Native PHP to D3 Support
Now we support accessing D3 from the PHP scripting language. Read more about it here.
Mobile Interface
Some customers have used PHP to access D3 data and return it in a special format for use by mobile application communications. Android and iPhone platforms have web clients that can perform GET and POST operations to exchange data with D3 systems.
