A Jolt of Java for FacTS API

Remarkable reliability, efficiency, customization, cross-platform use, and a friendly user interface can all be had in one slender program. Quantum Compliance Systems' Java Thin-Client Applications were developed to expose the existing FacTS business logic and database to the Java platform, allowing Quantum to leverage Servlet technology to dynamically generate programs like HTML web pages. In addition, the API manages a number of service tasks like logging and connection pooling. The browser-based nature of the Java programs allow for enterprise-wide rollout. Data is stored in a central FacTS database and all existing reports and listings in the FacTS product can be used against data entered through the Java front-end.
