How the FAME Web Factory Works

The Web Factory interfaces to the major WWW servers: Netscape, NSCA, and CERN. Using CGI, your Web server makes requests of your FAME SiteServer and returns live data back to the client.

The powerful FAME 4GL automatically generates all of the HTML and GIF files required to make your application Web compatible. Client requests generate a real-time response directly from the FAME database engine, not from a stored page or file.
