Enterprise Generation Language (EGL) is a development environment (RAD plug-in) and a fourth generation programming language. EGL generates J2EE/Java (for Windows/Linux/Unix)and/or COBOL for the z/OS platform).

EGL has been designed to be platform neutral, which enables companies to break down development silos and exploit whatever platform is most appropriate for the application that needs to be run. This allows a developer to write applications while focussing on the business code rather than on the technology that is being needed. For example similar I/O statements can be used to access different types of external data sources. As a result an EGL program written for one target platform can easily be converted to another platform with a minimal effort. The run time code then just needs to be generated for the appropriate platform.

EGL offers capabilities that deliver benefits to all levels of the organization:

• IT and business executives can improve organizational efficiencies, reduce development costs, and speed time to market by standardizing their entire organization on a single application development platform that is open, flexible, and customizable. Executives and managers can improve their return on investment by eliminating the time and exorbitant costs associated with training their developers on Java and other technologies in order to make the most of these new technologies. At the same time, companies can protect their investments by migrating their applications or components to new and improved development platforms, and using these components as services.
• Project managers can better manage their team's workflow, improve developer productivity, and enable their teams to build high-quality solutions on time and on budget by using a flexible and scalable platform that makes their teams more responsive to business changes and growth.
• Business-oriented developers responsible for writing the business application code can focus on solving business problems without having to worry about the underlying technology. EGL enables these developers to integrate and extend their business applications so they can be deployed on newer technologies like J2EE and SOAs without spending much effort.

TAG has a well-defined and mature application development and Migration process to execute RAD/EGL projects. This process supports a distributed delivery environment wherein work responsibilities can be effectively divided between the delivery teams spread across the globe.
