Key development areas
There is a range of areas that Redgum focuses on in order to provide the quality products, service and support that we are known for and that allow us to achieve the goals we have outlined above.
Components
New Components that is reusable in the development and construction of software. We have and continue to develop pre-built components allow us to focus on the specifics of a product not deal with the usual software specific issues that all applications require. The components is tested proven and reliable and each part can be replaced without causing major issues with the rest of the system
Design Patterns
Each project is reviewed to identify new techniques and methodologies for the construction and integration of applications, components, databases and product suites. The primary goal is to identify and encapsulate concepts with the end result being consistent, repeatable and reusable software. Stop inventing the wheel again, move on to inventing the next thing
Application Development tools
Targeted rapid application development for specific design patterns, application assembly tools deployment and management tools.
Like a production line development tools are like small robots or a workman's tool kit that assist us to develop and maintain the full development lifecycle.
Support infrastructure
Redgum is continually developing intranet, process and automation applications to allow us to support our clients and respective products throughout the lifecycle of the application, its versions and upgrades.
This support infrastructure is very important to our development and to our customers as it allows us to track, plan, manage and support the software throughout the development cycle.
Key technologies
For each of the key development areas we have many developments underway, the key ones that will make the most significant difference both to us and our clients are
Redgum Project and Product Controller
A suite of integrated tools for handling the end-to-end Analysis, design, development, testing, deployment support and upgrade cycle that all applications go through.
This includes web based applications which allow Redgum's clients and their customers to interact directly with the developers to get new version, gain help and support, log errors and questions and participate in a controlled environment though every stage of the development process. This is critical to Redgum's development technique which is an iterative consultative process which provides both developers and customers with the tools they need to be in touch right throughout the development process.
DOMCore and Application Framework
The DOMCore and Application Framework are the core components for software applications developed by Redgum these two key areas are the high level building blocks for all of our software construction allowing for greater cohesion, integration, support and rapid development. These technologies apply to both browser based and windows based applications. Containing in-built security, database interaction, business rule 'plug-ins', reporting structures and real-time networking components these take care of many of the standard development issues that arise in new application development.
