Our software solutions are built
upon proven Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) methodologies
and disciplines such as the Rational Unified Process (RUP) of software
engineering, and the IconProcess for web-based application development.
We follow an open source software paradigm employing the latest open
source software and internet technologies, essentially eliminating
any software acquisition and licensing fees in our solutions.
Our
software designs are based upon a multi-tiered Model-View-Controller
(MVC) architectural pattern providing extensive scalability, flexibility,
and maintainability that enable our solutions to grow seamlessly
with the needs of our clients. We employ disciplined Object Oriented
Methodologies (OOM) in our solutions throughout all phases of our
projects, beginning in the requirements capture and needs analysis/Inception
phase via artifacts such as UML Use-Case diagrams and Object diagrams
produced during the design/Elaboration phase. This Object-Oriented
pattern continues through the implementation/Construction phase from
the application layer to the database/persistence layer where we
integrate open source Object-Relational Mapping frameworks such as
Hibernate, solidifying the Object-Oriented pattern while allowing
for the greatest flexibility and capability with virtually any open-source
or commercial relational database system, such as MySQL, PostgreSQL
and Oracle.
