Allegro Software Development Corporation - Embedded Web Server

Description

Company Overview

Allegro Software Development Corporation was founded in February 1996 with the intention of bringing the advantages of standard Internet applications to the management of network devices. Recognizing the limitations of current network device management solutions and convinced that existing Web server products were inadequate, Allegro developed the RomPager Embedded Web Server Engine and Web Application Toolkit specifically for embedded environments. Features include a small memory footprint, compression for pages and images, support for the latest HTML and HTTP standards, flexible security models and file system support offering a generalized asynchronous I/O interface for flash, disk, RAM and network file access.

RomPager, introduced by Allegro in the spring of 1996, enables embedded device vendors to provide network management that leverages the ubiquitous Web browser interface. Using a standard Web browser as the client allows them to quickly prototype sophisticated management applications and rapidly deliver consistent cross-platform solutions. By leveraging the browser as the application interface, the requirement for developing, distributing and maintaining custom device management client software is eliminated. Additionally, putting the interface in the device itself make sure that the management application matches the current capabilities of the device.

In December 1997, Allegro delivered several additions to its embedded Internet applications product line. These included version 2.0 of RomPager, RomMailer, and RomPager Remote Host. The new version of RomPager added support for HTTP 1.1, external authentication interfaces, and enhanced HTML page creation tools. RomMailer, an email agent for embedded device management, is a significant step in the use of Internet applications to manage network devices. With RomMailer, devices can send email status reports or event alerts to any Internet email reader.
