History

The company was founded in 1976 as Prometheus Software Development in Sydney, Australia. [3] [4] Originally trading under the name 'Prometheus Software', the company was sold to Sausage Software in 1999. [3] The name was then changed to 'Pronto Software' following a management buyout in 2002. [3]

Technology

In 1984, the company released the PRONTO Enterprise Management suite.[ citation needed ] Subsequent developments included the launch of PRONTO-Xi Phase 4 in 2005.[ citation needed ] In 2016, the company introduced Pronto Woven, a digital consultancy service designed to integrate with and extend the functionality of Pronto Xi. [14]

Pronto Xi operates on Linux (Red Hat), UNIX (AIX or Solaris), and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 platforms. In UNIX and Linux environments, the system is accessed via a proprietary thin client, [15] communicating with the application server over SSH, Telnet, or SSL-encrypted Telnet protocols. A web-based client has been introduced to support modern deployment strategies and serves as the basis for ongoing platform evolution.

Supported relational database management systems (RDBMS) include Informix Dynamic Server, Oracle Database, and Microsoft SQL Server. [16]
