Falcon3A: Run PowerBuilder Applications as Web Applications on Any Device

Falcon3A stands for Anytime, Any Device, and Anywhere—our concept is to help you work without limits. With Falcon3A, you can access your PowerBuilder applications at any time, from any device, and from anywhere, making your business truly mobile and flexible. By turning your existing applications into web-based tools, Falcon3A helps you save time, reduce costs, and maintain the functionality you rely on.

What is Falcon3A?

Falcon3A is a smart platform designed to convert PowerBuilder applications into fully functional web-based tools. You can run your applications through browsers or mobile devices without the hassle of redeveloping them or making major adjustments. It’s a simple solution that extends the lifespan of your software while keeping it relevant and accessible.

Key Features and Benefits of Falcon3A

1. Access Applications Anytime

Run your PowerBuilder applications on desktops, tablets, or smartphones using any browser.
There is no need for additional installations—just open your web browser and start working.

2. Advanced Web and Mobile Printing Capabilities

Print documents directly from web applications to local printers without any additional configurations.
Falcon3A offers a universal printing solution, converting documents into a compatible format like PDF, ensuring users can print from desktops, tablets, and smartphones.
Mobile users can print seamlessly to nearby printers using wireless or cloud-based printing solutions.
The system automatically detects the best available printer, making it easy for users on the go to print reports, invoices, or any critical documents quickly.
Ensures high compatibility with mobile printing apps like AirPrint (iOS) and Google Cloud Print (Android).

3. Internet Access with No Loss of Functionality

Enables access to PowerBuilder applications from Windows devices over the internet.
The applications look and function as they always have, supporting almost all PowerBuilder features.
No retraining is necessary for end users, and core functionality is never compromised.

4. Easy and Quick Integration with Falcon3A

No need to rewrite your applications or invest in additional tools.
Your existing PowerBuilder applications can be set up in a web environment with minimal effort.

5. Strong Web Security

End users no longer have direct access to the database, as all SQL execution is handled safely on the main server.
SQL queries and sensitive data access are executed securely behind the firewall, protecting business-critical information.
Sensitive connection details (like user IDs, passwords, and connection strings) are securely stored on the server side.

6. No Additional Software Needed

Falcon3A works directly with your PowerBuilder applications without needing external plugins or software.
By using Falcon3A, your applications will be ready for use on any device.

7. Minimal Code Changes

Powered by the native PowerBuilder runtime, Falcon3A supports almost all PowerBuilder features, including the PFC framework.
No application is too large or complex for it to handle, and minimal modifications are required.

8. Automatic Conversion

Once Falcon3A is configured, it automatically generates the web version of your application.
This ensures a quick and smooth transition to the web without extensive manual work.

9. Minimal Effort for Maintenance

Future maintenance requires only PowerBuilder skills, allowing developers to continue using familiar tools and environments.
Developers are shielded from complex web programming, enabling faster updates and fixes.

10. Protect Application Integrity

Falcon3A includes mechanisms for app encryption, app signing, and integrity checking.
These features prevent unauthorized modifications, decompilation, or hijacking of application files.

11. Enhanced Data Protection with TLS 1.3 Encryption

All HTTP communications are secured using the latest protocols, such as TLS 1.3.
TLS 1.3 provides stronger encryption and protection against unauthorized access.

12. Efficient Server-Side SQL Execution

All SQL commands and data access are executed safely on the server, reducing vulnerabilities.
By moving data handling to the server, Falcon3A ensures secure database connections without exposing sensitive data.

13. Scalable and Flexible

As your business grows, Falcon3A can easily adapt to your needs.
Whether expanding access or adding features, the system supports future growth without disruption.

14. Built-in Security and Compliance

Critical operations, such as database queries, run securely on the server to protect sensitive data.
Secure communications ensure that your applications and business data are always safe.
