A Strategic Master Plan is a significant undertaking that includes a review and understanding of your business direction as well as your existing technical, data, and applications architectures. During the planning process, we examine your business and consider computer-industry trends related to emerging technologies, rapid hardware and software technology change, and the explosion of global communications as part of the Internet age.
TenFold helps you develop a 21st Century Plan quickly and much less expensively than a traditional study of this type by eliminating variables with the assumption, for the purpose of the planning, that EnterpriseTenFold SOA is your applications development platform. This assumption lets us presume:
These premises are an important difference between the TenFold Way and any other planning strategy. Other approaches require evaluation of technology stacks, best-of-breed technology components, component integration costs, and the vagaries of the relatively high IT risk associated with traditional, long development cycles and high development cost.
Further, our Strategic Master Planning is simplified, because choosing EnterpriseTenFold SOA for applications development eliminates applications-obsolescence risk in an environment of ever-accelerating technology infrastructure advances. With our model-driven approach, your applications-development investment is separated from applications rendering. When new industry-standard technologies emerge (as Ajax did recently), EnterpriseTenFold SOA adopts that standard. Without any applications changes on your part, your applications, too, automatically adopt that standard by simply installing a new EnterpriseTenFold SOA release.
