Business application development

Secure, Stable and Scalable

Most business applications use databases to provide their foundation functionality. These may be custom databases designed to drive the specific application or databases in other, perhaps legacy systems.

Fusion Workshop is an experienced database developer, specifically Microsoft SQL Server.

Middleware platforms such as ASP.Net are used to deliver business logic and the presentation of end-user and administration functionality, usually via browser based Web GUI. Content can be rendered for mobile browsers and PDAs.

Where required, functionality and content can be exposed via Web Service/XML gateways.

Fusion Workshop has carried out a number of web application re-engineering projects to extend the life or facilitate migration to another platform.

Complex ecommerce functionality has been created to meet PCI compliance standards. The company also has experience of HSBC 3D Secure integration.

The migration of applications to SQL Server or from traditional ASP or ColdFusion to ASP.Net is a specialism and the company has developed a migration strategy that:

• Eases the process and reduces risks
• Identifies and reuses portable elements of the original application
• Stages the process and costs over a number of phases
• Retains the existing investment in SEO
• Aligns the application with Fusion Workshop's Performance Roadmap with respect to: Performance Factors, Content Delivery, Architecture and platform.

Characteristics of Application Projects

• Custom databases, databases behind existing applications or data exposed by third party interfaces. 
• Intuitive and easy access solutions that are secure and control access to multiple user groups.
• The typical interface to a system is via a web browser although developing XML Web Services or front ends that allow access by mobile devices is often a requirement.
• Modernisation of existing application to extend life and deliver functionality via the web
• Support for processes missing from enterprise solutions
• Licensing issues with existing solutions
• Rolling out a "view" of existing systems to a new tier of employee, customer or partner
