LANSA is an architecture and not a software program. It is an architecture for developing applications instead of being just an application programming language or tool.

For example, with LANSA, a developer can create a single business application solution which can:

• execute Execute as a standalone application on a PC, or PC network running Windows.
• execute Execute over the World Wide Web as an Internet or Intranet application using a browser or other device supporting Java or XML.
• execute Execute as a client/server application supporting distributed presentation, distributed logic or distributed data models from a Windows client to an IBM i IBM i or other server.
• execute Execute as a standalone 5250 host-based application on the IBM iIBM i.

and this solution is:

• created Created using a single set of skills.
• created Created from one set of code (a single application definition).
• created Created using a single family of integrated products.

LANSA is a Repository-based 4GL so that your applications are properly architected for the future.   An investment in a LANSA application is an investment in an application architecture which will protect your business application systems.

Once you have invested in a LANSA application, you have a wide range of deployment options for your application.
