VA Smalltalk News

Dear VA Smalltalk User,

Some great things are happening at Instantiations.

We're continuing in our mission to provide the highest quality customer service to support our loyal and growing customer-base. Innovations with roots in unlikely places continue to make the VA Smalltalk product even stronger.

Your continued investment in VA Smalltalk systems ensures ongoing enterprise-grade stability.

Next Release: VA Smalltalk 9.2

This year Instantiations plans to release VA Smalltalk 9.2, which like version 9.1, has another large set of updates. One of these updates is a new Just-In-Time Compiler for our virtual machine technology that enables it to significantly outperform IBM's legacy virtual machine.

Innovation in Unlikely Places

As part of the design process for Instantiations' new virtual machines, VA Smalltalk was ported to the ARM processor allowing it to run on IoT devices such as the widely popular Raspberry PI. In just under 4 hours, full product compatibility was achieved on a Raspberry PI due to the forward-thinking VM architecture. Because it's the full VA Smalltalk product on an ARM-based device, all platforms share in the future improvements derived from this port.
