.NET smart-client framework for rapid application development
Fast application response time because of local data caching and low server and network load. Smart-clients, also known as Rich Internet Applications, are a better architectural approach than solutions based on a web server because workstations' horsepower is productively used.

Open architecture.
Agile structure allows default appearance and logic to be highly customizable. Nobody wants to be trapped by a framework that can only create one application type. DataFace "proposes" an application to you. Some dialogs will be acceptable to you right out of the box but you may want to add custom logic to create the most frequently used transactions or inquiries. Everything can be customized.

Understands the data layer of any business application.
Dramatically less programming because the knowledge accumulated in your existing database definitions is reused. DataFace^® inspects your database in order to populate user interface screens with data from individual tables, your primary and foreign keys, and all of your validation logic.

Centralized common user interface elements.
Rapidly react to changes in the business environment. The DataFace runtime interprets its XML instructions and calls your modules (DLLs) for custom business logic, so it is very clear where changes are needed and how to deploy them. DataFace code is completely separate from user code.

Automatically creates the user interface using Dynamic Forms Architecture technology.
Reduced maintenance costs because you maintain 3 XML files rather than thousands of screens. DataFace's Application Manager packs all of the information about your database into one XML file, which can be edited with an explorer interface. There are no Windows forms, no HTML/ASP/JSP pages, and no scripting languages.

Adaptable to your environment.
No need to change or upgrade your existing software investment. The DataFace framework is totally independent of browsers, web servers and constantly evolving ASP technology. It is optimized for SQL Server^® 2005 and higher but other DBMS interfaces are supported. It relies only on Microsoft^® .NET.
