Client Server Link (CSL) provides secure access to servers running on HP NonStop systems from a rich variety of client programming and runtime environments with a single infrastructure. It allows client and enterprise application developers to concentrate on the business logic rather than struggling with technical details of NonStop and Pathway applications.
CSL provides a variety of options to meet your individual requirements.
| Features | Benefits |
|---|---|
NEW: CSL is Converged Infrastrucutre Ready | CSL runs on NonStop Blade Systems and that it makes use of one or more of the modern and open software infrastructure components on NonStop such as iTP web server and the Eclipse development environment. |
| Support of SAP Exchange Infrastructure | With CSL XI, organizations can integrate HP NonStop platforms with SAP SOA environments, with a minimum of programming, which dramatically streamlines deployments. |
