Are you falling behind the times?

Trying to read documentation and get updated on your own can be tough. That's why we make it easy to learn how to migrate your applications from either eDeveloper 9.4  or uniPaaS 1.x to Magic xpa. I invite you all to Come to sunny Southern California the week of August 27 for Magic University training. The course schedule breaks down like this:

August 27-29  Migration from eDeveloper V9.4 to Magic xpa Enterprise Client

August 30        Migration from uniPaaS V1.x to Magic xpa V2.x

August 31            RIA Programming for Magic xpa Developers

Basically, the first four days are one course if you are migrating from 9.4 (or earlier). If you are already on uniPaaS V1.x, then you could just come for the last day, Thursday, although I think most will benefit from the entire four days. In the first three days of the course, August 27-29, you will learn about: The Magic xpa project paradigm; Magic xpa studio enhancements and features; data repository; task editors; expression editors; event-based logic; user-defined functions;GUI enhancements; subform controls; application migration; xml handling; use of external version control systems; and rich client applications.

On August 30, the focus will be on migrating to Magic xpa 2.x, additional GUI enhancements; GUI Frames; MDI; and the new open source end user functionality.

August 31 is the optional RIA day. This course will detail the RIA concept and architecture; explain the differences between client-server and RIA applications, detail the development, optimization, deployment and monitoring of RIA apps; provide guidelines for converting existing apps to RIA apps.

The optional RIA class day is $699. The main course from the 27-30 is free if you have a current M&S contract on an Enterprise Studio. The cost is $2,000 if you don’t. Please call your representative to make arrangements for the course. (949) 250-1718. 

A Collaborative Approach to Migrating Your Magic Applications

One of the most overlooked benefits of the Magic xpa Application Platform is the availability of professional services from Magic itself. When a customer has an older application – say one that was originally developed in eDeveloper or even an earlier version of Magic, these professional services can be especially useful.

Magic provides services that leverage automated tools for the smooth migration of Magic applications from version-to-version, database-to-database, and deployment-mode-to-deployment-mode. As experienced Magic xpa developers know, the Magic xpa Application Platform supports a wide range of deployment channels.

Magic helps you enhance and redeploy your Magic applications by efficiently managing the entire migration process from any version of your applications, platform infrastructure, or databases.

Our professional consultants can provide you with a migration needs assessment;  apply automated tools for SQL, RIA, web, and mobile migration; manage deliverables for a smooth and gradual migration path; and offer custom-designed migration projects suited to your application development preferences.

The flexible approach and extensive set of skills applied provide you with the application modernization you need at an affordable price. We leverage a well-established knowledge base of existing migration projects to streamline your project. We apply expertise and proven methodologies from these other projects in a way that is tailored to your application and needs. By leveraging the Magic professional services team, you are able to focus on new features and improvements related to your core application and deliver a complete new version of your applications in a fraction of the time.
