. FileMaker, both a sponsor and exhibitor, will show

Along with the instant web publishing and custom web publishing
features of its award-winning FileMaker Pro, FileMaker is
developing technology that provides an easy way to develop dynamic
data integration between web applications and back-end databases.
The technology will allow developers to publish information from a
FileMaker database to web sites, store information in FileMaker
that is gathered from the Web, and create new solutions that
combine a web-based front-end with a rich FileMaker back-end. “Our involvement in the PHP field is a result of
strong developer interest for technology that lets them easily
exchange dynamic data between a web front-end and a sophisticated
back-end database,” said Ryan Rosenberg, vice president,
marketing and services, FileMaker, Inc. “Our objective is
to allow developers to combine the most popular, easy-to-use
database with the easiest-to-use language for dynamic websites.
FileMaker Pro is unique among databases because the logic and
presentation layers are put together with the data
layer.” FileMaker Pro combines graphical layout creation, scripting, and
business logic programming in one development application. Back
office solutions for data entry, email communication, security and
systems administration can be quickly and cost-effectively
developed with FileMaker Pro.
