Upcoming TNAPS 3 Release

June 09, 2011
Written by Vladimir Kovalskiy in TNAPS Blog   

We are proud to announce that the next major release of our TNAPS application server platform will soon go into private beta, followed by a community preview release. Since our last stable TNAPS release in the past six months, we've been working tirelessly and passionately to bring you a new experience in server application development. In fact, we've switched the major version number because of the dramatic changes in architecture and approaches we have used in TNAPS 3.

It has never been this easy to design and implement RESTful or SOAP server applications, integrate them on the client side, and deploy them.

TNAPS Fundamentals

First of all, our fundamental principle remains strongly intact in the new version: any business logic you create can be a Product.

Starting from TNAPS 3, the approach to implement this principle is "completely component-driven development." Components can be written in any language - .NET or Java and application becomes a set of configured and linked components. Apps as well as TNAPS can be launched in any OS and can contain components written in any language, even in multiple different ones.

Sneak Peeks

Below are some sneak-peeks into features coming your way in TNAPS 3:

  • Java and .NET components execution within one single environment. 
  • The server side was rewritten from the ground up to gain support for launching under .NET or Mono environments. That's it - the same server application can be launched in Windows, Linux, or Mac. 
  • A universal web console for server management and development. 
  • An integrated development environment within web console - no external IDE needed, just your favorite browser. 
  • TNAPS Marketplace for distribution of your components and apps. 
  • And many, many more awesome features!

Beta Testing Program

We are starting private beta testing soon and we'd love to get feedback and participation from the TNAPS community. Please contact us using the "Comments" feature below or e-mail if you'd like to participate. If you're into cross-platform development with .NET/Mono/Java, you will be absolutely amazed by this process!
