Database driven web applications have redefined internet in the past decade
. Gone are the days when websites comprised of static content running on HTML which had no dynamic interaction with the users.
With the emergence of dynamic web based applications, end user interaction with Access development was launched to an altogether different level. Be it providing up to date news, or to marketing your product, or to run an online poll Dynamic web applications are a solution.
Database driven web applications do not run on the client side making them significantly light weight relative to heavy client side applications.
Database driven web applications can be managed and controlled from a single central unit making them easier to run and maintain.
Database driven web applications are more cost effective.
Database driven web applications have a higher degree of penetration due to massive internet user base.
Apart from the ones mentioned above, there are countless other reasons which make Database driven web applications this revolutionary.
Success of Database driven web applications also meant more and more people and technologies got focussed towards it. While in its early days, Database driven web applications were built on top of open systems like Java or Microsoft related technologies. This meant a whole lot of code to be written to control the behaviour of an application. As time passed by frameworks like Struts came in which had a lot of regular and common controller code already encapsulated it which could be customized through configuration changes.
However all this while a lot of developer focus was going into redundant tasks that were common for all applications. This brought about a major change called code generation. Visionaries soon realized that the best way to increase productivity and gains was through code generation. Companies came up with products that could build web applications simply by click of button.
One such product that created a revolution in the field of code generation and Database driven web applications development is Alpha Five from Alpha software. Using Alpha software set of tools, developers can develop powerful and dynamic, Database driven web applications without any coding. Alpha five can have the developers connect to a variety of databases including Microsoft Access Database and Oracle.
