very large company is currently thinking about the implementation of solutions in a distributed environment. : This is because Information Systems are now synonymous with : - interoperability, made necessary by the overlapping relationships between companies belonging to the same group or partners sharing common economic interests.
- heterogeneity, as information must be known in real time, although coming from multiple systems that are closely related, yet different.
- the need to integrate complex platforms that are the backbone of the processes used to monitor and generate business.
If the mechanisms of distributed architectures aim to solve these difficult equations, Information Systems must also maximize their profitability and thus reduce development costs by reusing existing objects, designed either internally or externally, and by allocating work to geographically scattered teams and sometimes outsourcing work to external teams. The programming of ideally reusable objects and the ability of teams to locate objects that have already been designed represent challenges for which there are no suitable tools. A multiplicity of architecture standards and types, the complexity of codes that must be implemented to create objects, and a lack of compatibility between "functional" competences and "purely IT" competences represent as many obstacles that defer the benefits promised by these new solutions. To develop more quickly with a "complete IS" approach and implement, in a way that is immediately profitable, solutions that may be deployed in distributed architectures, regardless of their standards, the becubic product line offers the only industrial solution on the market. Soamaï's suite of independent, yet complementary becubic software products is a complete, modular solution that covers every need a business might have with regard to the creation, referencing, assembly, deployment, and execution of objects and Web services. This offer is non-intrusive, as it uses and federates technological standards that already exist within the business. |
