ACS
- This Case Study documents the enhancement of a Decision Support System
software to enable clients to analyze terra-bytes of data to determine
patterns and trends in the Medicare industry. ACS's clients required the
system to be faster, stable, more scalable, and to provide decreased query
time. The system needed to be simple for users and did not require users to
have prior knowledge of SQL structure. Microsoft SQL ,Oracle, Delphi
Client/Server & Midas/DCOM were used. The resulting 3-tier independent
system exceeded all expectations.
Client / Server Systems Over the Internet - This case study
addresses the ability of many users to download and install an application
independently at their separate locations with no resulting compatibility
issues. Scalability and slow development time are two of the issues resolved
by the new system. This particular solution is used in the insurance
industry, but can be beneficial to any business.
Web
Application - The discussed Web Application was developed to support
operations ranging from commodities trading to inventory management over the
Internet. The application is available over the web through an
authentication mechanism that allows for access by internal and external
users. Extreme scalability and high availability are two issues resolved by
the system.
