Application Development and Deployment
Ready to be a hero in your organization?

  "If I need to add a few fields to capture special data elements, I can add those fields to the database, regenerate the application ... and within a short period of time I have customized the application to the client’s specifications. This was next to impossible before Iron Speed Designer."

— John Christly, CEO of OMC Systems LLC

Your team can do amazing things with Iron Speed Designer. Of course your developers can build applications. But you can also empower non-developers such as DBAs, web designers and support engineers to generate applications — without any knowledge of .NET, coding or HTML!

Team Development Features

Your development team can collaborate on Iron Speed Designer projects just like hand-build applications. Except you'll finish a lot faster!

Source control file detection accelerates team development. Iron Speed Designer detects files that may be under source code control and alerts you to check them out before regenerating your application.
Microsoft Visual Studio integration. Launching Visual Studio .NET directly from Iron Speed Designer opens the page and code files you're working on for further editing and code customization. Save your edits in Visual Studio and return to Iron Speed Designer to continue working.
Code Customization Wizard. The Code Customization Wizard streamlines code extensions. Over 90 coding examples are built into this convenient wizard, making them easier to browse, select and apply. The wizard prompts you for parameter values and automatically inserts the code into the correct class, eliminating the need to figure out where to make code extensions!

Deployment

Optimize and deploy fast with our built-in tools. The MSI Installer takes the guesswork out of deployment.

MSI Installer creation. Generate an MSI installer for your application, simplifying the process of moving your application from your development environment into your production environment.

Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 or 2008 required.

Application scalability. Run multiple instances of your Iron Speed Designer-created applications on multiple machines. Deploy your applications across Web farms with as many servers as you wish, providing the scalability needed by most applications.
Configurable view state location. Control application speed, page size, bandwidth and data persistence by choosing where to store application View State: Page, session, .NET cache, or external file – it’s your choice.

Development and Optimization

Our built-in tools leverage your time, freeing you to focus on your custom business logic.

Multi-database applications. Build applications of any size using multiple databases (multiple schemas in Oracle) and an unlimited number of tables.
Database views. Database views are great for generating complex dashboard pages. You can generate an entire suite of application pages based on database views, including master-detail pages.

Inline SQL and stored procedure generation. Iron Speed Designer automatically builds all the SQL statements required for your application based on your data model and user interface design. You do not need to know any SQL to build applications with Iron Speed Designer! Use stored procedures when run-time performance is an issue.

Concurrency handling and transaction management. Optimistic concurrency handling* ensures your users cannot unintentionally overwrite each other's changes. Our page-based transaction model ensures all changes made to any record on the current web page are submitted when the user clicks "OK" (or takes a similar action on the page). A single "commit" concludes the transaction. Save yourself the trouble of implementing this tedious code by hand!

*Concurrency handling is only available when generating stored procedures.

Virtual foreign keys. We understand your database may not be perfectly structured. Simply inform Iron Speed Designer of any implicit (undeclared) foreign key relationships between tables and views that are not be defined in your database. Iron Speed Designer does the rest, joining these related tables and views so you get comprehensive master-detail pages.
Virtual primary keys. Missing primary keys for certain tables and views in your database? Declare them with Virtual Primary Key feature, and Iron Speed Designer will create Add, Edit and Show Record pages for these tables and views.
C# and Visual Basic .NET code generation. Generate applications in today's most popular ASP.NET languages. Run on the latest .NET frameworks.
