texte = By now, you have seen a glimpse of what we have planned for WebDNA 5.0 at http://www.smithmicro.com/iss/webdna5preview.tplAside from providing a superior web development solution with exceptionaltechnical advances, a goal of this release is to make adjustments to thepositioning of the WebDNA line that result in greater acceptance andusability. Most of these changes come as a result of feedback gatheredhere on this list. Here is the WebDNA 5.0 lineup with notes that addressthese changes as well as comments from earlier today on this list.Developer Edition 5.0. Developer Edition is positioned as the build andtest platform to design web solutions with. The 5.0 release will includethe IDE lab, and the Web Services Wizard with related WSDL extensions,allowing you to quickly build applications that consume web services. It isessentially the Enterprise Edition limited to 3 threads, so you can buildand test the most robust WebDNA solution, then purchase the appropriatelicense to deploy. You may have noticed that we are giving DeveloperEdition away for free. This is a test of a proposed seed program designedto get WebDNA into the hands of new developers. We are currently runningseveral marketing campaigns that drive new traffic to the Developer ResourceCenter to get a free copy. (The response is quite high!)Partner Edition. This is positioned as the basic business applicationlicense for deployment. If you created with Developer Edition anapplication that does not require commerce tags and does not require the CMSor WSDL capabilities of Enterprise Edition, then Partner Edition is thelicense to buy. There are no thread limitations in the 5.0 release. ThePartner Edition is a one-website license appropriate for a single web site.More on this below.Commerce Edition. Still the commerce solution choice for deploying basiccommerce solutions that you are all familiar with. The 5.0 release willcontain XML support, XSLT translation support and all of the other extensionmentioned in the preview document. It will also include the IDE lab. Thereare no thread limitations. Commerce Edition 5.0 is also a single-websitelicense.Enterprise Edition. This license allows you to deploy the most advanced websolutions. The content management capability is extremely flexible andintuitive, and the Web Services Wizard makes short work of what wouldnormally be many hours of painful coding. The Enterprise Edition is anunlimited website license. The preview document goes into much more detailthan I will in this summary.Intranet Edition. This is a complete drop-in Intranet solution. No otherlicense is required. It is based on Commerce Edition 4.5, so a web storecan be built if needed. Note that Intranet Edition is not yet updated for5.0.So here's the lowdown on website-based pricing and the ISP sandbox. The ISPsandbox is essentially a security feature. If you have multiple websiteshosted on a single server, you can isolate each site in its own securefolder. All administrative settings, databases, trigger definitions, etc,related to that site would be protected.While Enterprise Edition is an unlimited website license, the default forDeveloper, Partner and Commerce Editions is one website. This allows us toprovide a lower cost of entry into WebDNA while maintaining flexibility.(References to domains in the preview document will be updated towebsites, which is a more accurate term.) Additional website add-onsmay be easily added at a reasonable price. When adding website add-ons tothe WebDNA license, a new serial number is created that is dependant uponthe original one. Merely adding the new serial number into the admin willadd the number of website add-ons purchased. Obviously, someone currentlyhosting dozens or hundreds of websites on a single WebDNA license will wantto consider Enterprise Edition; in addition to being able to host any numberof websites, each one can be sandboxed, delivering greater value andsecurity to the customer. I hope this addresses the questions from earlier today. I have included mydirect line in the signature below- do not hesitate calling me direct withcomments or concerns! My desire is the same as yours- use WebDNA to helpbuild a more profitable business. We will accomplish this by positioningWebDNA as a VERY scalable solution, get it into the hands of developerseverywhere, evangelize the cost benefits of WebDNA, and provide a low enoughentry point.Your comments are encouraged.
