Esika has a proven reputation in designing and delivering enterprise scale systems using the Component Development approach.
The following outlines our views on Component Development.
Rapid Development and implementation.
Developed in analogous and strewn manner.
Portable, Reliable and Scalable.
Ability to Enhance and sustain.
In our outlook the above requirements can be met through:
Component Design and Development.
A true n-tier layered, owner-tenant based application architecture.
A standard robust design, development and run-time Framework and Infrastructure.
Why Component Design & Development?
Component Development allows a system/ application to be composed by using smaller, handy pieces of software (components). The benefits of this approach over the conventional big monolithic design include condensed development time and therefore costs. Component Development enables a Buy rather than Build approach which reduces development time. For non-core functionality, Component Development results in cost benefit and re-usage in manifold applications and allows effortless integration of external, off the shelf software example: Payment systems, Address verification and future Public Web Services.
Upgrade and replacement is easier using Component Development. It enables a more 'plug and play' approach to design, plummeting the risk of errors. Finally, with Component Development, components can be enhanced/ replaced incrementally and rapidly, and with fewer critical problems, as changes are localized and more easily controlled.
Why n-tier Application and Technical Architecture?
A proper Component Application, Technical Architecture and design will allow:-
Rapid and easier introduction of new sales, service channels, new products and business rules.
Rapid integration with existing/ legacy systems to provide consolidated and integrated view for business processes to customers, suppliers and other partners.
Easier and more (24x7) access to customers, suppliers and other partners.
Enterprise Application Integration
Esika has expertise in linking applications to share and swap data. As new systems proliferate and new technologies are brought into a venture, it is vital to integrate new front ends, business logic and databases with the existing legacy and off-the-shelf systems. We recognize that enterprises will always have a mixture of legacy, off-the-shelf and in-house developed IT applications to support various operational areas, and that these applications and sub-systems may need to share data and business logic to support a more integrated business function. Furthermore, many businesses are facing the following drifts and issues:
Internal and external business drivers increasingly require the IT systems in different departments and sub-units to be amalgamated.
New business processes often need to share data and business logic with other systems within an enterprise and with other business partners (Example: parent companies,subsidiaries, suppliers, customers, service providers).
The introduction of new business processes often requires the ‘re-integration’ of core business logics into applications. Technically intricate business process due to fastened technology.
