Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Getting Started:
Application and Integration Services

> ## Introduction to WebSpeed

> WebSpeed is both a development and a deployment platform for Web applications. Web applications are accessed by end users through a Web browser. WebSpeed Web applications typically involve some interaction with a data source. You can implement queries, updates, and the addition or deletion of records.

> With WebSpeed, you can develop and deploy:

> - Intranet applications that allow internal users to access and modify data.

> - Internet applications that allow external, consumer access (for example, a shopping cart application).

> - Extranet, business-to-business applications.

> WebSpeed includes examples of all three types of application. See OpenEdge Getting Started: WebSpeed Essentials for a description of the intranet, internet, and extranet sample applications and instructions on how to run them.
