Digité is all about frameworks.Beneath every user functionality lie one or more frameworks that help us uniquely customize the application for our customers. The basic frameworks have evolved over the years in meeting the customer needs, and new frameworks have been developed to seize new market opportunities. So what frameworks are we working on now? Universal Process Framework (UPF): The UPF successfully debuted in Digité 4.2, and has been effectively employed by customers to manage Application Development and Maintenance projects. We are extending the framework to handle other processes such as Service and Infrastructure Management. Just as the current framework is built to support CMMI-compliant development and maintenance processes, the framework extensions will support ITIL compliant services and infrastructure processes. Reporting Framework: This framework is overdue for a complete overhaul. The new framework is based on open source BIRT tool to quickly develop and deploy high quality reports Data Analysis Framework: This framework provides access to Digité internal data through a set of OLAP cubes and puts the tools in users' hands to slice and dice data on several dimensions and design dashboard components and reports on the fly. While the framework uses open source tool, integration would be possible with other industry-standard Business Intelligence tools. These and a slew of exciting functionality built on existing frameworks will become part of the product early next quarter. There are other exciting ideas brewing in the minds of those who constatntly push the envelope where it concerns Digité functionality - and those we can discuss about in the blogs to come...
