History


  • Trinzic owned AION by 1993. A reference in a 1993 announcement indicates that Trinzic's formation was the result of a merger :
  • Although in the merger, technically AICorp bought Aion, as AICorp was a public company and Aion was still private, the reality was that Aion's leadership and technology subsumed AICorp's. Jim Gagnard, the CEO of Aion, became CEO of Trinzic and AICorp's flagship product, KBMS, was discontinued, while the Aion Development System continued to be enhanced and KBMS customers were assisted in converting to AIONDS, under the continued technical leadership of Garry Hallee and Scott Grinis.
  • On August 1, 1994 Trinzic released version 6.4 of AIONDS saying, in part:
  • Trinzic was acquired by PLATINUM Technologies in 1995 which retained at least some of Trinzic's acquisitions
  • Platinum Technologies was acquired by Computer Associates in 1999. CA changed the system's name to " on or before 2009.
  • It is currently at Release 11 on a wide range of supported platforms.
