Unlike anything before it or since, the Internet has taken the world of computing by storm. It is said that over 60 million people have Internet access today -- that already there are nearly one-half million Web sites. One industry watcher estimates that the number of Internet users is growing at a rate of 10% per month, and that the number of Web sites doubles every 57 days.
So it's no wonder that corporate IS departments are trying to figure out what to do with the Internet, the Web, and the promise of electronic commerce. How can they take advantage of this golden opportunity? Do they have to start over, retrain their development staff, spend most of their computing budget?
On the contrary, Internet commerce is closer at hand than most people think. Rather than rebuilding your applications with a new "Internet" language, you can use your existing ACUCOBOL(TM)-GT applications to achieve results on the Internet today. Any new programming you have to do to accomplish Internet computing can also be done in ACUCOBOL-GT, or you can combine your ACUCOBOL-GT programs with other Internet languages and technologies. Whichever method you choose, remember, if you want to perform application and/or data distribution across the Internet, Acucorp can take you there.
