Transfer Solutions to Use Mendix Platform for Oracle Client Support

As Oracle plans to sunset development of its Designer product, Transfer Solutions will use Mendix as a possible alternative to fill in the gap left behind.

BOSTON & ROTTERDAM, NETHERLANDS – June 15, 2011 – Mendix, the leading business application platform-as-a-service (PaaS) provider, today announced that Transfer Solutions, a Netherlands-based, information and communication technology (ICT) service provider, specializing in Oracle and Java technologies, will utilize the Mendix Agile Business Platform, as a possible alternative to provide a highly productive application development environment for its Oracle-user clients.

With Oracle’s announcement to stop  development of their Designer Suite, Transfer Solutions’ software developers were challenged with having to build upon a discontinued platform. In order to continue to provide a highly productive development environment to its customers and developers, Transfer Solutions will use the Mendix Agile Business Platform to facilitate project completion, without losing speed, and flexibility and protecting client investments in the Oracle infrastructure and database.

“Mendix provides us with the capabilities to supply our customers and employees with the best user-experience possible,” said Albert Leenders, technical director for Transfer Solutions. “With Mendix’s platform, we will be able to safeguard, and even expand on our and our customers Oracle technology infrastructure, find a follow up for Oracle’s 4 GL and create valuable options for our customers.”

The Mendix Agile Business Platform guarantees that Transfer Solutions’ clients will be able to extend their legacy Oracle systems, now and well into the future. Additionally, the Mendix Platform offers well-controlled maintenance for designers, developers and administrators – two factors that lead to its selection.
