State Department Chooses Microsoft Software to Make Better Use of In-House Expertise 2008-02-01 Microsoft

Several years ago, the State of Tennessee standardized on Java 2 Enterprise Edition (J2EE) and Oracle for large application development. The Tennessee Department of Human Services (DHS) adopted Microsoft software to deliver high-impact, mission-critical applications at a lower cost, while continuing to improve citizen services through technology. Microsoft Visual Studio Team System 2008 helps accelerate the development of new solutions and supports DHS's application lifecycle management strategy, while Windows Server 2008 and Microsoft SQL Server 2008 provide a full-featured, reliable, cost-effective, and easy-to-manage platform for deploying and supporting those solutions - all of which is possible with in-house resources and expertise.

Philippines Social Security System Improves Service, Boosts Collections by 15% 2006-12-14 01:00:24 Oracle

After 47 years of operation, the Philippine Social Security System (SSS) found itself with outdated technology just as its retirement, death, and disability benefits programs grew more popular than ever. Although only 70% of the nation's work force is registered with the system, registration is growing between 15% and 30% a year, straining the old technology and making it difficult for SSS to meet service levels. All that changed when SSS deployed two new systems based on an Oracle technology platform. After a thorough review, the company selected Oracle Application Server. The application was built using Oracle Application Server and Oracle Application Server Containers for J2EE (OC4J).

XML Manipulation Using XMLTask 2006-12-09 01:00:17 Sun Microsystems

XMLTask is an external task for the popular build tool Ant that permits complex manipulations of XML in a simple and consistent fashion, without having to deal with XML StyLe sheets (XSL). XMLTask can be used for many common tasks that developers face, including manipulating J2EE and Spring descriptors, creating XHTML websites, and driving workflows via XML configuration files.

Jump-Start J2EE Development 2006-11-01 Oracle

As the user has seen in previous papers, Oracle JDeveloper 10g and Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF) provide a complete development environment with a host of declarative features similar to 4GL tools one may have used in the past. To help one make the most of the powerful Oracle JDeveloper/ADF combination, the Oracle ADF Learning Center provides numerous helpful resources, such as ADF Developer's Guide for Forms/4GL Developers, a companion sample application, and an end-to-end tutorial. This paper shows the user another powerful tool to help them harness the potential of Oracle JDeveloper: the Oracle JHeadstart application generator. It demonstrates the new Oracle JHeadstart 10.1.3 version to show one how quickly he or she can create real-world applications in Oracle JDeveloper.

Ford Motor Credit Company Standardizes Development Methodology on IBM Rational Unified Process 2006-10-20 01:00:16 IBM

Ford Motor Credit Company IT wanted a consistent software development process. Each project team used its own methodology, making it difficult to share project deliverables, allocate staff, and communicate across geographically distributed teams. These processes offered little support for development and often resulted in late identification of project risks. The company adopted IBM Rational Unified Process and customized it. The IT department also established a coaching program to provide training and guidance to project teams. Ford Motor Credit IT now identifies and addresses project risk much earlier in the development process.

Expresso Mercurio Reengineers Business Process and Develops Business-Critical Logistics System Using IBM Rational Software Development Platform 2006-10-20 01:00:16 IBM

Seeking to expand into new territories and process more trans-actions, Expresso Mercurio was hampered by an aging software system unable to support a new business process, manage sales, coordinate fleets, and track itineraries. The company began using IBM Rational software to reengineer its business process and accelerate development of a Web-based logistics management system. Expresso Mercurio also engaged Trace Sistemas for consulting and mentoring services. Requirements, resources, tasks, assets and schedules are centrally accessed and managed, keeping development of core business systems on schedule.

Build Your Ideal J2EE Environment 2006-10-17 01:00:14 Oracle

J2EE programmer is aware of the power that J2EE can bring to the project. However, harnessing that power requires a five-step edit/compile/package/deploy/debug programming cycle. Without the right tools for each step in the cycle as well as integration between those tools, developing J2EE applications can easily become the source of many small frustrations. This paper shows how to use Oracle9i JDeveloper and Ant, the open-source, Java build-management tool, to optimize and eliminate many of the frustrations of the edit/compile/package/deploy/debug programming cycle.

Add Some Spring to Your Oracle JDBC Access 2006-10-13 01:00:15 Oracle

JDBC is a standard data-access protocol that is typically used to access relational databases. A significant advantage of JDBC is its standardized API, which allows for portability of Java-based data-accessing applications. JDBC is considered an integral part of both standard Java (J2SE) and enterprise Java (J2EE) and has been around since Java's early days. The many positive aspects of JDBC have allowed it to play a significant role in many J2SE and J2EE applications. However, there are some characteristics that make it more difficult to use than one might desire. These tedious, and sometimes frustrating, characteristics of JDBC have led to the creation of publicly available JDBC abstraction frameworks. One publicly available JDBC abstraction framework is Spring Framework's JDBC abstraction.

Web Agency Increases Sales by 47 Percent After Joining Microsoft Partner Program 2006-10-13 01:00:15 Microsoft

Altima developed Web solutions on the J2EE platform, but its managers decided to join the Microsoft Partner Program to increase developer efficiency in creating solutions using Microsoft .NET connection software. With Microsoft providing technical support, Altima rapidly repositioned itself with new expertise in .NET-connected Web applications. One year later, Altima increased sales by 47 percent and reduced product development by 25 percent.
