Maintaining
Balance
When
dealing with a given application, it may be desirable
or necessary to apply more than one approach. Repurposing,
for example, also presents the opportunity to reface.
Likewise, restructuring an application might also result
in some repurposing. Regardless, it's important to consider
how taking any one approach with an application may affect
the other applications in your enterprise portfolio from
the perspective of end users. Enhancing some applications
may merit or demand enhancing others for the sake of the
usability.
With
Ink2Web Technologies You Can…
- Create
interfaces quickly that run on a number of platforms
- Integrate
message-based systems with CORBA systems, DCOM systems,
and any major RDBMS. In fact, integration adapters
can act as a wrapper around legacy systems to make
them look like CORBA applications to other CORBA applications
- Send
and receive messages in industry standard formats
(e.g., XML) using healthcare industry standards (e.g.,
HL7) and almost any communication protocol
- Use
data from received messages to compose and execute
a set of transactions against data stores (RDBMS systems)
and distributed object systems (CORBA and DCOM) with
transaction control
-
Configure interfaces without the use of error-prone,
time-consuming scripting or procedural coding
- Manage
the development, testing, and deployment of interface
configurations
- Monitor
all interfaces from a single central location
- Minimize
the training and support needed
- Source
and target messages are defined using the same graphical
user interface regardless of the protocols involved
and operations to invoke
