Welcome

Wecome to the EsiObjects project. This project and others exist under the umbrella of the Out-of-the-Slipstream organization. The Atmus project is especially important since it will create many of the GT.M resources possibly needed by EsiObjects.

EsiObjects Information

EsiObjects is an evolution of the MUMPS language and database technology. It extends the MUMPS language with the OO syntax, a robust object model, extensive reusability and an efficient, modern IDE. It was designed as a migration path for traditional MUMPS applications. Today, the demands of cloud computing and new emphasis on schemafree databases has given new meaning to this goal. Consequently, we are reinventing this superb Open Source product for a new mission.

Read the white paper for a detailed description the EsiObjects architecture.
