Rich Internet Apps without the Learning Curve

DataBox is a rich internet database web application builder with a friendly, elegant, consolidated user interface for creating rich web pages, forms and reports as well as data tables and queries. DataBox enables anyone to build and deploy Rich Internet Apps in minutes. All of which can be deployed cross-platform on the desktop or in the browser with a single click.

Rich Page Design

DataBox has a powerful WYSIWYG page designer for creating rich web pages, forms and reports. The designer is a first of its kind, with aspects of page-layout, illustration, animation, presentation, reporting, UI Building and data binding.

Data Modeling and Query Building

DataBox also has powerful data modeling built-in, so data tables are given the same first class treatment as page design. Visually add tables of data manually, or copy/paste from a spread-sheet and DataBox will handle all the database administration for you automatically. Similarly, fetches of that data, based on user-defined criteria and parameters, are also built using a simple visual user interface.

Java and Groovy Scripting

DataBox also has support for adding advanced programmatic behavior via Java and Groovy scripting. Turn simple data tables into sophisticated custom objects with derived attributes and custom business logic, just by adding a class. Or add a custom document owner to provide advanced initialization and custom interface update or response.

Build and Deploy on Multiple Server Back-ends

DataBox lets you create a databox automatically from a number of different back-end technologies. Select from a flat-file, FTP site, internal Java DB database, any external JDBC database, Google App Engine or an existing parameterized URL web application. DataBox also lets you migrate to another back-end option with just a few clicks. DataBox can also connect to multiple data sources to do database aggregation.

Customize and Embed DataBox in your Java Application

DataBox can easily be customized to work directly with the data model and data access layer of your custom Java application. This opens up a world of custom end-user reporting and UI customization to your product offering. Contact us to find out more about our customization services: 214.513.1636.
