Web Application Development

Developing a solid web application is not easy! The days when a good hacker could bolt together a few Perl scripts and create a reliable application are long gone.

The Issues:

Scalability

A sucessful web site needs to scale easily from a simple pilot system to one capable of taking millions of hits per day.

Robustness

It is essential that any web application be reliable. A customer who fails to access your site because it is down may never return. A web application which incorrectly performs your business logic may be much more serious.

Maintainance

As many of the early players in Internet Commerce can testify, the organically grown systems of the past can be immensely difficult to maintain. Good design and a solid technology base are vital if a system is to be easily maintained.

Our Solutions:

Having carefully analyzed numerous options for web application development, we have concluded that the Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) in conjunctions with Jakarta Struts provides the best solution currently available.

J2EE offers the following advantages:

Robust.
Scalable.
Cross Platform.
Designed for the Internet.
Efficient run time.
Widely supported.
Easy access to a huge range of services.
Encourages good design.

J2EE is however not in it's self a solution. Whilst it is a fantastic building block, it still requires good solid design. Our team of Java consultants and developers have vast experience in the design and implementation of solid, well engineered , object oriented solutions.
