What does IBM Rational Business Developer do?
IBM Rational Business Developer and its Enterprise Generation Language (EGL) services enable business-oriented programmers to leverage the benefits and technology of Java, JEE, browser platforms, cloud deployment, databases, IBM i, and zSystems without having to learn all the underlying technologies. Paired with powerful capabilities to support cross-platform development, Rational Business Developer is designed to hide the technical details of the deployment platform and associated middleware programming interfaces. This allows the developer to focus on the business problem rather than the underlying implementation technologies.
