Eloquence is a well integrated development and runtime environment
which significantly improves productivity. Developers can easily
design and implement complex business applications or customize
existing programs on the fly. Since Eloquence was released in 1990,
thousands of installations have confirmed this.
Software partners in many parts of the world appreciate Eloquence
as a powerful, reliable and flexible means for cost-effective
development, execution, customization and maintenance of commercial
applications. A host of features, not found in such a combination in
other development and run-time environments, makes Eloquence unique
and well suited to virtually all data processing tasks.
The TurboIMAGE compatibility extension opens up an easy, cost-effective
migration path for HP e3000 business applications. The Eloquence
database offers compatibility beyond intrinsics and allows migration
of HP e3000 applications with typically no effort. Database migration
is just a matter of data export and data import.
Eloquence provides a powerful programming environment with an
integrated database, optimised for high performance requirements
of commercial applications. Eloquence supports a wide range of
environments, ranging from simple ASCII terminals to graphical
client/server environments. Business applications based on Eloquence

and work with databases above 500 Gigabytes.
