Product Development eFlash Agents
|
| Introduction |
| The ever changing IT world is forcing customers to
adopt out-of-the-box solutions and it is becoming very evident that
these solutions are to be based on the Internet. Business on the Internet,
i.e. e-business, is becoming the key vehicle for getting competitive
advantage and reduced time to market products and services. Customers
are constantly looking for innovative ideas and solutions at lower
costs to meet their current and future needs. The solution that is
offered today should be “future proofing to meet the needs of
tomorrow. |
| This is forcing a paradigm shift in
the development of e-business systems – moving from a traditional
programming based approach that yields expensive and inflexible solutions,
to an architected methodology that rapidly develops e-business systems
that are flexible, maintainable and future proofed. |
| Architecture |
| Flash is currently developing eFlash Agents that has
comprehensive repertoire of Rapid Development Frameworks that provide
a tremendous head-start towards ad e-business solution. The core framework
is designed to build electronic marketplaces for business or business-to-business
or business-to-consumer e-business, as well as seller and buyer side
solutions. In addition, e Agents has also frameworks for many vertical
industries. These frameworks are Brokerage, Insurance, Banking, Travel,
HR for Benefits and job Applications, Drug Store, Healthcare, Education,
Media and Retail. |
| This architecture is an open system that transcends
technology, and streamlines the development of all aspects of an e-business
system using an integrated set of architectural and construction tools.
It consists of visual, rapid and intuitive architectural tools that
are used to design business objects, business processes, websites,
palm device interfaces, messaging, databases and legacy integration
tiers of an e-business system. The result is an architectural plan,
a business blueprint that reflects the precise details of a system,
complete code generation and highly flexible deployment environment,
with total de-linking of business processes with deployment environment. |
