JADE (programming Language)
JADE is a proprietary object-oriented software development and deployment platform consisting of a programming language, integrated application server and object database management system.
Designed as an end-to-end development environment to allow systems to be coded in one language from the database server down to the clients, it also provides APIs for other languages, including .NET Framework, Java, C/C++ and Web services.
As a programming language, its main competitors are Java and C#, while as a database it competes with other object-oriented databases and post-relational databases such as Versant, Caché and Matisse as well as traditional relational database software packages such as Oracle and Microsoft SQL Server.
Although a free limited licence is available for development, using the JADE platform requires per-process fees to be paid.
