  We help Companies develop Enterprise Level Software. What does this mean?

 
 
  • Quality - Our experience is the main ingredient when it comes to developing quality software. We have an average of 15 years experience as a team. Additionally, we use a software development lifecycle, similar to RUP, which ensures that the software product is exactly what you'd like.
  • Scalable - As your business grows to service 100's or 10,000's of customer, the software will grow with you automatically. You don't have to worry about rewriting or reengineering any of it. We use common frameworks, like J2EE and Struts, along with Design Patterns to ensure that your software is properly designed and engineered for future needs.
  • Failover and Fault Tolerant- With J2EE Application Servers you can setup your system to failover to other nodes, if one server becomes unavailable or is down for scheduled maintenance. With Java/J2Ee Fault tolerance is also provided through container managed Exceptions. So when the application fails for whatever reason, you don't have core-dumps, or memory overwrites that kill the software instantly.
  • Open Systems - Although we use Microsoft software on a daily basis and develop software for Microsoft systems, let's face it Microsoft is not considered an Open Systems. We like the philosophy of Open Systems, because it allows our customers to choose 1 of many platforms to run our custom software solutions, including Microsoft. You can run on IBM, LINUX, SUN, HP... and many more! Also the application server vendors are plentiful, BEA Weblogic, Macromedia JRUN, JBoss, Oracle App Server, and many more...What this all translates down to, is the fact that with Open Systems you get better quality, more selection, and more options for scalability as your business grows!
  • Load Balancing/Distributed Processing - In J2EE we can balance the load (# of requests on the server), such that if one server is too busy the requests can be forward to another. Additionally we can take advantage of the other nodes (servers) resources to help distribute the processing requirements of the system.
  • Useable! - Let's not forget the most important aspect: Usability! If the customers don't like it, then all this other stuff is for NOT! We develop user-friendly and high-performing applications. We design our algorithms to peform optimally for each situation, so you don't have to sit and stare at the HOUR glass too long for your data to arrive.
