| Build Composite Applications Easier,
Faster.
Why Above All Software? SOA is the new approach to enterprise IT
architecture, typically relying upon Web services as a key enabling technology.
Composite applications are the integrated business solutions assembled from the
services in your SOA–and how you ultimately derive business value from your Web
service and SOA investments. The Above All Composite Application Platform
transforms existing application assets into rapidly assembled, high-impact
business solutions.
Built to be a key element of your SOA solution, the Above All Composite
Application Platform enables the rapid assembly of SOA-based applications.
Supporting a four step methodology, Above All software is the fast, easy way to
integrate business functionality between disparate applications. With Above
All software you:
|

|
MINE existing information assets to create an
automatically refined, business-specific set of business services
|
|
|
|

|
REFINE services into business services that bridge
the gap between optimal business needs and existing IT applications
infrastructure
|
|
|
|

|
ASSEMBLE business services into effective,
user-oriented composite applications
|
|
|
|

|
DEPLOY composite applications to the environments
your business and users need, and/or deploy business services as Web
services for consumption by other tools
|
The Above All Composite Application Platform includes:
|

|
Above All Studio™-
an integrated environment for refining services into business services and
for assembling new composite applications
|
|

|
|

|
Above All SOA
Repository™- a dynamic metadata repository to store and manage the assets
in your SOA
|
|

|
|

|
Above
All Knowledge Packs™- software that mines existing information assets so
that specific applications and/or technology can participate in composite
applications and your SOA.
|
|

|
|

|
Above All
Multi-channel Deployment™- enables the Above All created composite
applications and services to be deployed to the environments your business
and users need.
|
The Above All Composite Application Platform delivers the
critical capabilities underlying a successful composite application solution:
visual refinement of business services, rapid assembly of business services
into composite applications, and easy deployment of those composite
applications into user-defined environments.
Build Business Value Sooner.
By accelerating the assembly and deployment of composite applications, Above
All Software significantly reduces the time and effort necessary for those
applications to make an impact on your business. Moreover, service-based
integration is non-invasive to the original applications, so services can be
reused and re-integrated quickly and easily in new composite applications as
business needs change.
Above All Software also enables you to better align IT resources to business
needs so you can make more efficient use of scarce IT resources. For instance,
you can refine and map existing IT functionality to business-specific terms,
then re-use services across different business scenarios. In fact, our software
saves you time and expense by simplifying the entire the SOA-based application
landscape:
|

|
Simplifies how IT application assets can participate in
composite applications
|
|

|
|

|
Simplifies how services are aligned with the business
needs
|
|

|
|

|
Simplifies how composite applications are assembled and
