ross-Platform Custom Software Development Microsoft Business Solutions products: Great Plains, MS CRM, Navision,
Axapta, MS RMS integration with UNIX/Java based platforms & non-Microsoft
applications: Oracle, Lotus Notes/Domino, DBII, PeopleSoft, SAP The history
of software application development indicates that global trends to
unification might be reversed in the future.
If you take a look at C programming language, intended as cross platform
solution (which resolves graphical interface cross platform migration).
Later on java was invented to encapsulate the application within java
virtual machine, and at the same time we see thin client conception
development, which can not be done in C, due to the nature of the internet
browser. So, inevitably - large corporation, where system life cycle should
last at least a decade, should consider multiple platform adoption: Unix,
Microsoft, Linux, MS SQL Server, Oracle, DB2, Lotus Notes/Domino, Microsoft
Exchange, etc. •Microsoft Business Solutions products integration. Project
Green will lead to Microsoft suites: Microsoft Financials, Microsoft
Distribution/Supply Chain Management, Microsoft Human Resources.
The interesting part is - which product will be the base for the specific
suite. At this point we don't know the answer •Customization Tool evolution.
If we look back to the history of Microsoft Great Plains - Great Plains
Dynamics/eEnterprise - it had native programming language / IDE Great Plains
Dexterity. Today - Dexterity is concurring with such customization and
integration tools as eConnect - the set of stored procedures, this is
definitely the trend emphasizing SQL coding and developing •Cross Platform
ODBC/JDBC calls.
If we look at MS SQL Server or Oracle Transparent Gateways and
Generic Connectivity - we will see that Database tools support cross
platform heterogeneous SQL requests and updates. The proof of the
co-existence trend - isn't it? •Java versus C#. The appearance of C#
confirmed the fact, that pure Java conception with its virtual machine and
isolation doesn't satisfy Microsoft .Net development requirements. .Net
objects could not be isolated the same way as Java/EJB/J2EE. This is where
we again have to admit coexistence of two Worlds: Microsoft Windows and Java
•The Stakes. Probably the mixture - and considering the fact that
cross-platform integration is addressed from both sides - different
platforms should be just integrated. Good balance would be relatively
inexpensive Microsoft Business Solutions ERP application: Great Plains (USA,
Canada, Latin America, Middle East, Australia, New Zealand, UK), Navision
(France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Brazil, Japan, Russia and the rest of
continental Europe), Axapta - if you need rich ERP functionality - then your
business specific application: Freight Forwarding database, Lease tracking,
Consignment, etc. should be placed into Oracle/DB2/Unix/Linux. Microsoft CRM
- this is the temptation and we do recommend it - it could be integrated
with Java applications •Reporting.
If you plan to deploy them from Windows side: use Crystal Reports upon
heterogeneous SQL views, in the case of Java - it depends on the vendor:
Oracle, PeopleSoft, SAP, IBM Lotus Notes Domino, Siebel, etc. We encourage
you to analyze your alternatives. You can always appeal to our help, give us
