RemObjects releases Data Abstract for Mac OS X

Posted by Dennis Sellers Nov 3, 2009 at 4:00pm

RemObjects Software has introduced Data Abstract for Mac OS X 10.5 (“Leopard”) and 10.6 (“Snow Leopard”). It’s a new framework for Mac and iPhone developers.

According to the folks at RemObject, it’s designed to take the burden out of data access and allows developers to concentrate on the core part of their application—data presentation and business logic, without having to worry about the intricate details of dealing with the underlying database. Data Abstract for OS X is a 100% native Objective-C library and supports development for both Mac OS X desktop apps as well as the iPhone/iPod touch. It was designed to play nice with the tools that Mac and iPhone developers already use, such as Xcode, Cocoa and Objective-C.

Available in three separate editions for .NET, Delphi and OS X, Data Abstract allows the creation of database applications on any of these individual development platforms, or to create platform-spanning solutions that run on a variety of client computers and devices. Data Abstract will communicate with servers written using the other editions for .NET/Mono or Delphi, allowing developers to extend their existing project/solution with new clients for these new platforms.

Fitting in with general Cocoa development paradigms, Data Abstract for OS X is fully designed for asynchronous (and optionally synchronous) data access. It’s wire compatible with its sister products as well.

Data Abstract for OS X is available now, and pricing starts at $899 (USD) for new users. It’s also available in bundles including other platform and includes RemObjects SDK for OS X.
