AS400 with Synon (now called CA 2E) is a development environment used to rapidly create and maintain applications on the IBM i (AS/400) platform.It employs a model-based approach, reducing the need for extensive manual coding in RPG or COBOL.Widely used in enterprise environments, it supports efficient design, generation, and deployment of business applications.
Key Features of AS400 with Synon
- Model-Based Development: Synon uses a design model to generate RPG or COBOL code automatically.
- Rapid Application Development: Speeds up development cycles by generating most of the application code.
- Consistency: Standardizes design and coding practices across the application.
- Maintainability: Easier to update or modify business logic using the abstract model.
- Strong Integration: Tight integration with IBM i (AS/400) environment and DB2/400 database.
- Menu-Driven Interface: Easy-to-use interface for defining entities, relations, and functions.
Basic knowledge of programming concepts, especially procedural languages like RPG or COBOL.Familiarity with IBM i (AS/400) environment, including command-line usage and basic operations.Understanding of database fundamentals, particularly relational database design and SQL.
