WaveMaker releases IT back to strategic projects
CIO-Safe™ Web 2.0 Solutions for IT
WaveMaker is the only solution to quickly build and deploy scalable web-apps that meet the CIO's architecture, security and data policies.
WaveMaker's Visual Ajax Studio lets CIOs delegate projects to departmental teams, reducing development costs while eliminating rogue IT projects. CIO Safe™ features of the Studio include:
- Reduce the risks and expenses that result from extensive custom code development and maintenance.
- Eliminate vendor lock by using readily available, open source Ajax widgets and web services: no more proprietary fat clients, expensive desktop deployments or forced upgrades.
- Connect developers to managed services that have been created and/or approved by IT.
WaveMaker Visual Ajax Studio automatically generates the Rapid Deployment Framework. WaveMaker's Rapid Deployment Framework for Java lets IT secure, manage and maintain reliable web-apps by using existing security and identity management such as LDAP, SiteMinder and db security. By design, the Framework does not introduce any new security models or requirements. WaveMaker integrates with, and leverages the best practices that are already in place such as role-based access controls, adhering to the CIO's corporate governance and SOX compliance requirements. WaveMaker's Framework plugs into existing security and management software that has already been approved, purchased and deployed by the CIO and Central IT.
Key Features of the Framework include:
- No black box server: WaveMaker is open source and built on open standards,
- Scalability: The Framework can host applications that range from serving small business teams all the way up to large enterprises on grids. In fact, the WaveMaker Studio is built on the WaveMaker Framework.
- Leverage existing infrastructure: it runs on industry standard Apache Tomcat and J2EE (Java EE) AppServers.
Together, the WaveMaker Visual Ajax Studio and Rapid Deployment Framework (for Java) comprise a complete, CIO Safe solution for the enterprise.
