康柏计算机公司在数字设备及计算机用户大会(DECUS)进一步明确该公司全力支持OpenVMS 操作系统的立场。OpenVMS 是 legacy 数字设备公司的操作系统产品,康柏将推出一系列的软件和硬件产品来加强对 OpenVMS 系统应用的支持。一些批评家认为支持 OpenVMS 的应用软件太少,针对这一问题,康柏计划计划1999年内为包括COBOL 和 FORTRAN 在内的各种编程语言开发编译器,编译器将是基于 Alpha 服务器的。康柏同时还将在 DECUS 上推出其 XP 900VMS Alpha 工作站,该工作站使用单一的500MHz Alpha EV6处理器,并将支持OpenVMS 及其应用软件。该工作站装有一个18GB 的硬盘。康柏官员计划为每一级 Alpha 芯片都配备一款新的 VMS 工作站。另据介绍,用户将可以买到新的使用 OpenVMS 平台的高端服务器。康柏将在 DECUS 上介绍新的支持OpenVMS 的基于 Web 的电子商务软件,同时还将推出以 OpenVMS 为平台的 Apache Web 服务器以及 Netscape Communications 公司的 FastTrack 服务器,通过这些行为把 OpenVMS 与康柏的无停顿电子商务战略紧密地结合起来。1999年的晚些时候,康柏还计划推出一个为 OpenVMS 设计的 Java 开发包,该软件包将
Compaq Computer Corporation further confirmed at the Digital Equipment and Computer Users Conference (DECUS) that the company fully supports the OpenVMS operating system. OpenVMS is a legacy digital device company’s operating system product, and Compaq will introduce a series of software and hardware products to enhance support for OpenVMS system applications. Some critics believe that there are too few applications supporting OpenVMS. To solve this problem, Compaq plans to develop compilers for various programming languages including COBOL and FORTRAN in 1999. The compiler will be based on Alpha servers. Compaq will also launch its XP 900VMS Alpha workstation at DECUS, which will use a single 500MHz Alpha EV6 processor and will support OpenVMS and its application software. The workstation is equipped with an 18GB hard disk. Compaq officials plan to have a new VMS workstation for each Alpha chip. According to reports, users will be able to buy new high-end servers using the OpenVMS platform. Compaq will introduce new OpenVMS-based web-based e-commerce software at DECUS. At the same time, it will also launch OpenVMS-based Apache web server and Netscape Communications’ FastTrack server. Through these actions, OpenVMS and Compaq will be without pause. E-commerce strategies are closely integrated. Later in 1999, Compaq also plans to launch a Java development kit designed for OpenVMS.
