Technology Solutions - Overview

The general consensus in today's software space is that Software as a Service (SaaS) and Cloud Computing are the waves of the future. Industry analysts are projecting that the SaaS/Cloud market is poised to reach $40.5 billion by 2014!

• Businesses are increasingly turning to SaaS technology solutions, driven by ease of deployment, flexibility, scalability, and predictable pricing models.
• For businesses to remain competitive, they must define and execute a SaaS technology solution, either exclusively or as an alternative to on-premise deployment.
• With SaaS and Cloud Solutions, organizations can design, build, market, and deliver services that enable their clients to easily access their applications from virtually any location.

The Mobile and Wireless industry is not only growing, but doing so very rapidly. It is estimated that the global mobile market will pass the trillion dollar mark by 2013 and the number of mobile subscribers will be well over 5 billion. Mobility in the enterprise is going through a disruptive shift – precipitated by both technology and changing user demand.

• Ubiquitous wireless connectivity and capacity, powerful terminal devices, and a growing mobile application ecosystem lend themselves to previously unimaginable technology solutions.
• Beyond laptops, web books, and handhelds, the scope of what is considered a "terminal" device is expanding as more and different equipment is being connected to the network across the value chain.
• Resources in the field now have access to the full suite of an organization's IT solutions. They can capture information and provide feedback at the "point of business" like never before - serving the enterprise as sensor, signal, and actuator.
• But device and infrastructure improvements are only the medium. The real impact comes from the ability to offer new business capabilities and to radically rethink business processes.

Software Development Life Cycle, or SDLC, is a model of a detailed plan including analyzing, designing, coding, testing, implementing and supporting custom software development. In the last 25 years the use of computers has exploded. There are millions of applications running on computers, smartphones, tablets, etc., and the need for high quality, best practices, security, usability and a fast return on investment in these technology solutions has never been more critical.

Each SDLC phase requires documentation, reporting, and approval. This assures that a project cannot get out of hand either by changing direction or becoming a financial black hole. The project sponsors are aware at every step exactly what is going on and it is documented. This means no surprises when technology solutions are rolled out to the user. That is why SoftServe created the SDLC Playbook to help guide you through the process of custom software development.

Business intelligence (BI) is a broad category of applications and technologies for gathering, storing, analyzing, and providing access to data to help enterprise users make better business decisions. BI enables organizations to make well informed business decisions and can be the source of competitive advantages. The objective of business intelligence is to improve the timeliness and quality of information. Well-designed BI applications can give anyone in your company the ability to make better decisions by quickly understanding the various “information assets” in your organization and how these interact with each other. These assets can include customer databases, supply chain information, personnel data, manufacturing, and sales and marketing activity, as well as any other source of information critical to your operation.

SoftServe can offer your business a variety of services in Business Intelligence and Data Mining such as: an exploratory service assisting businesses with BI strategy and roadmap development, an enhancing service that provides assessments and recommendations for Business Intelligence and Data Mining applications and an enabling service that assists with BI/DW applications development and deployment.
