eddy+ made by abat: By developers, for developers, designed for the HPE NonStop

Everything is under control, thanks to eddy+. The first web-based IDE for the HPE NonStop is for developers who want to develop, debug, deploy and maintain easily and efficiently. Programs in COBOL and C can be comfortably realized  in our user-friendly and integrated development environment. eddy+ is easily scalable and does not require complex configuration work. With eddy+ you can easily adapt to specific customer needs.

Easy to use
Develop and communicate with HPE NonStop without deep knowledge of its architecture or development process = focus on WHAT instead of HOW.

Web-based and scalable
Configured once, usable for all. While other solutions need to be set up on all workstations, eddy+ saves you valuable time

Agile development
Whether Scrum or Kanban: eddy+ supports development teams with modern work processes.
 

 

The most important features of eddy+ at a glance:

  • Development environment for the programming languages Cobol and C
  • Tools for simplifying the entire development process
  • Visualization of interaction with the HPE NonStop - no terminal required anymore

Product details

Product Vision

eddy+ is for HPE NonStop developers and allows them to easily and comfortably develop, deploy, debug, and maintain C and COBOL code. It is a web-based modern IDE, which simplifies communication with the HPE NonStop, wrapped in a user-friendly intuitive interface.

Summary

eddy+ is a web application that simplifies the development process for HPE NonStop. The application essentially covers the following requirements:

  • Functions of a modern IDE especially for the programming languages C and COBOL
  • Tools for automating of the entire development process
  • Visualization of the interaction with various proprietary HPE NonStop applications

eddy+ does not replicate the functions of individual HPE NonStop applications, but makes it easier to use them. In addition, the system structures and automates individual steps that are necessary for development on the HPE NonStop. eddy+ hereby represents an easily scalable IDE (Integrated Development Environment) for software development on the HPE NonStop.
