Check out Brent Raymond’s session at the 4D Summits this year.

Explore a development strategy that we are using at the Art Institute of Chicago dubbed, The Virtual Structure. This approach helps to centralize data query and retrieval, control application access and leverage generic code which results in reduced codebase maintenance and better performance, all while satisfying complicated functionality requirements.

Virtualize your data model and define its access characteristics using 4D Objects to deliver a cohesive and scalable application.

For more information on how the Art Institute uses 4D to manage its art collection data, see the video walkthroughs here… https://4dmethod.com/demos/4d-at-the-art-institute-of-chicago/

There are also many other interesting sessions at the Summit this year.  Goto the lists here… Portland and Paris

Hope to see you all in either Portland or Paris in April!
