Info

Founded in 1993, Mainsoft Corporation is a first mover in developing cross-platform technologies that interoperate Windows and open systems. Our C++ enterprise porting platform, Mainsoft for UNIX and Linux (formerly called Visual MainWin for UNIX and Linux) has been used by many of the world's largest independent software vendors, including Microsoft, IBM Rational, Computer Associates, and Oracle, to deploy more than $1 billion in Windows software annually on either UNIX or Linux or both operating systems. Beginning in 2004, Mainsoft has transformed the .NET- Java EE interoperability market with its breakthrough cross-compilation software, Mainsoft for Java EE (formerly called Visual MainWin for J2EE), which enables an unprecedented level of integration between the two platforms. In 2005, the company launched the first Linux site for Visual Studio developers, enabling .NET developers to develop applications that run on Linux and other Java-enabled platforms using their expertise in Visual Studio development skills. In 2006, Forrester recognized Mainsoft as a leading provider of .NET-Java interoperability solutions, and Mainsoft entered a strategic partnership with IBM to provide .NET-Java EE coexistence solutions for IBM customers. An advanced IBM business partner, Mainsoft today enables IT organizations to deliver a complete front-end Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), with secure, role-based access to .NET and Java services. Currently, Mainsoft is helping more than 150 businesses deploy Windows applications natively on open systems, including WebSphere Portal and WebSphere Application Server as well as on the UNIX and Linux operating systems.
