Press Release


Strategic deal inked in South Africa

Fort Lauderdale, Florida, USA -- July 4, 2006
Binary Star Development Corporation is proud to announce a partnership with Binary Star Africa (pty) LTD, an independently owned and operated, licensed distributor of Nucleus Technology in South Africa.
Binary Star South Africa's specialty is in providing practical solutions addressing the unique challenges of Information Technology in the multi-value arena (multi-dimensional or extended relational databases including IBM-UniVerse, IBM-UniData, Pick/D3, QM Professional, Reality X and others).
Binary Star Africa is comprised of seasoned Information Technology veterans encompassing a wide range of skills and technical expertise gained from years of hands-on experience in both national and multi-national organizations based in South Africa and abroad.
With extensive experience in the development and support of applications created using SystemBuilder, SB+, Cue-Bic, Wizard, and other development methods, The professional staff of Binary Star South Africa understands the shortcomings of these older technologies and can now offer a practical alternative with Nucleus technology.
According to Mark Rogers, a Director of Binary Star Africa, "We see an immense value in Nucleus technology in being able to quickly improve the functionality of applications, while reducing administrative overhead. We have seen System Builder processes with over 900 lines of code reduced to as little as 30 lines of Nucleus code – gaining a graphic user interface in the process, (while still supporting traditional green-screen / text applications) without any additional coding."
"We’re excited about the potential for Nucleus technology in South Africa", said Jaco Ousthuyzen, a Director of Binary Star Africa. "We see that Nucleus not only adds a fresh, modern look to applications but also speeds development, improves security, adds fully-integrated source-code control and a wealth of other important features."
Although the general perception is that traditional 'green-screen' applications need to be completely replaced to modernize IT solutions, the truth is that wholesale replacement of these systems can incur a tremendous cost – both monetarily and functionally in attempting to re-create the exact functionality provided by the traditional applications.
"Since there is now an extensive conversion suite available to convert System Builder and SB+ applications to Nucleus", Mark Rogers, a Director of Binary Star Africa, added that "many sites who feel trapped in System Builder, will now be able to embrace new technology and provide a realistic path to their future."
