  /LP, /TX        Users last week got updates on vendor strategies for extending 
    applications to corporate intranets. For IBM, Microsoft, Netscape and 
    Next Software Inc. the common theme among the players was the 
    offering of numerous intranet-building consulting services to help 
    corporate IT teams develop intranet applications. 
  /TX       For its customers, however, Oracle placed the focus on the 
    delivery of real electronic-commerce capability through a new version 
    of the Oracle Web Server that can handle transactions, two-phase 
    commit and rollback over the Web, and on a new generation of Oracle 
    Applications  intended to tightly mesh companies with their 
    suppliers, customers,  and employees through the Web. 
          "The whole Internet area is ripe for consultants," said John 
    Rymer, vice president of Giga Information Group, Cambridge, Mass. 
    "You've got a whole new set of technologies, coupled with a need to 
    move quickly to achieve competitive advantage." Most corporations 
    just don't have the appropriate expertise in-house, so they look 
    outside, Rymer said. 
          Instead of large-ticket consulting projects, corporations will 
    have the option of hiring IBM Global Services consultants for two-day 
    training seminars that will average $12,000 each, according to Mark 
    Shearer, vice president, Internet/intranet business development for 
    IBM's Global Services, Somers, N.Y. IBM also announced Single 
    Sign-On , a product that will automatically grant users access to all 
    authorized uses from a single login  to the network. 
          For its part, Microsoft announced the Site Builder Network, a 
    three-tiered hierarchy of consulting services-from a Site Builder 
    hot line to special Microsoft technology briefings, detailed case 
    studies, and online referral of business opportunities to developers. 
    At the same time, Microsoft released Visual C++ version 4.2, and its 
    first beta version of the Visual J++ language, Microsoft's 
    ActiveX-enabled version of Java.  It also placed releases of VBScript 
    and its implementation of Javascript onto its Web site for 
    downloading. 
          Netscape and Next Software are also going into the consulting 
    business, training IT departments on the creation of corporate Web 
    sites using Next's WebObjects development environment on Netscape's 
    SuiteSpot servers. 
          With RSA Data Security Inc.'s security as its underpinning 
    ( CommWeek, July 8), Oracle Corp. introduced a new version of its
