CodeFutures Press Releases

CodeFutures has delivered significant productivity and quality gains to Alerois Corporation with its award-winning FireStorm/DAO tool that generates the Java persistence code for accessing databases. CodeFutures' code generation approach provides faster and cheaper application development, higher quality applications, and more predictable and consistent results. CodeFutures approach ensures that the focus of software developers is solving business problems.

"We've found the code generated by FireStorm/DAO to be almost identical to hand written code we had already finished. The difference is that FireStorm/DAO takes a few minutes to do what could take several days or even weeks of hand coding. Because we were dealing with almost 300 tables, we achieved vast time savings." Alex Shmelev, President, Alerois Corporation

"CodeFutures' approach means that developers are producing a lot more high quality code. While this is important to all development organizations, the effect on profitability is even more noticeable in smaller teams." explains Andy Grove, Chief Architect, CodeFutures Software.

"As part of our evaluation, we did a comparison between the code generated by FireStorm/DAO and hand written code we had already finished: it was almost identical." explains Alex Shmelev, President, Alerois Corporation

"We work in small development teams with few resources to waste, FireStorm/DAO saves us many development, debugging, and testing hours. Saving time is proportionally more important to us because we use smaller, very experienced teams that can leverage advantages provided by the generated code." Alex Shmelev, President, Alerois Corporation

FireStorm/DAO is based on the Data Access Object design pattern and is available in Enterprise , Architect, and OEM editions. FireStorm/DAO Architect Edition allows new custom code generation templates to be developed and integrated with the FireStorm/DAO Studio environment. FireStorm/DAO Architect Edition includes the source code for the Java code generation templates.

The FireStorm/DAO Enterprise Edition is priced at $595 per developer. FireStorm/DAO Architect Edition is priced at $3,495 per developer. There are no runtime deployment licensing fees.
