What You Need To Know About Building Data-Intensive Applications with Sencha and RAD Server

RAD Studio is definitely the ultimate ide software for building multi-platform, high-performance, and native applications. It has a wide range of powerful visual design tools that allows you to create the fastest applications on any of your target platforms. Interestingly, in this video, Andres Villalba (Sencha) and Alejandro Ruiz (Embarcadero) will discuss the advantages of using the RAD Server and how surprisingly easy and quick to build a data-rich web application using the Sencha Ext JS framework.

Everything you should know about RAD Server

As COVID changes the way companies look at their core systems, the ability to remotely access large datasets is in high demand by development teams in 2022. In this video, we will learn the great advantage of using the RAD Studio and RAD Server and how to build a data-intensive web application for enterprises using the Sencha Ext JS framework. It is interesting to note that RAD Studio offers developer productivity tools that allow users to create applications that are five times faster than the competitors which make it the preferred ide software of most developers today. It provides database access, powerful C++ libraries, an easy-to-use visual designer, and backward capability that allows you to easily migrate to a higher version of RAD Studio.

RAD Server, on the other hand, is the perfect backend for Delphi and C++ Builder apps. With RAD Server, there is no longer a need to build your own backend servers and services. Instead, simply load Delphi or C++ methods into the RAD server and publish your backend code to any client via managed REST/JSON endpoints. In addition to that, RAD Server makes it fast and easy to build flexible back-end servers for your multi-tier application solution. The video will also provide demos showing how easy it is to build applications with RAD Studio.

How to build data-rich Web Application using Sencha Ext JS?

Sencha ExtJS, on the other hand, is a JavaScript framework that allows you to create visually stunning web applications that are data intensive and that are meant to use by enterprises. The video will demonstrate how this ExtJS works and how to create an application from the command line and also how to consume the data with the Sencha application. Sencha has a lot of tools and grids that can be useful to create your own applications. It is designed to work with a lot of data, and it allows for product development. Generally, Sencha provides everything a developer needs to rapidly build data-intensive cross-platform enterprise web applications.

It features a so-called Kitchen Sink example where you can easily see all the tools and features that this framework offers including buttons, data mining, data view, forums, layout panels, charts, and calendar to name a few. What’s more important here in Ext JS is how powerful its grid is. It can load pretty much anything from basic data, texts, numbers, buttons, and more. It can also have a lot of information in it. One of the main advantages of ExtJS is that it is a tool that has everything built in. The video will also demonstrate how to build an application with Sencha and RAD Server.
