At Saven Technologies, we are masters of this art and over the years have learnt to apply our successful techniques in a repeatable and consistent manner. Effective and efficient application development necessitates a concoction of requirements management, iterative and repeatable process, smart developers, appropriate tools and libraries, exhaustive and proactive testing and continuous risk management, in optimal proportion. This is easier said than done, but over the years our experience has taught us how to blend these together.

 While, the challenges of application development are similar across technologies, things get more complicated when it comes to Flex. Flex is still a new technology and so there is a dearth of good Flex developers in the market. Lack of good developers implies immediately that your custom development runs the risk of cost and time over-runs and may never see the light of production. This is when we could come in and add immense value to your project. We build your application and train and mentor your team so that they start running when they are still struggling to crawl.

Over the last few years companies have learnt to benefit from reduced costs and extended business hours by outsourcing application development and support to offshore vendors. Unfortunately, due to the greater risks associated with newer technology and the lack of trained resources offshore such vendors have failed to provide effective services in the emerging domain of RIA. We wanted our customers to enjoy this unique benefit, so we invested proactively and have set up a world class development center in Hyderabad, India, staffed with some of the smartest web2.0 developers. If you don’t believe us, call us to see some of the outstanding work we have done exclusively out of this office. We bet you will be surprised!

 Flex is a great enterprise grade RIA but no serious RIA can exist in isolation with server side technologies. The popular server side technologies are Java, .Net and one of the LAMP options, including Ruby. We believe Flex is going to be dominant with all the choices except .Net, as Silverlight has emerged in the Microsoft RIA on the scene. Therefore our efforts and expertise are centered on Flex integration with Java and LAMP.

 Consider the prominent enterprise grade application expectations: high availability, scalability, transactional integrity and security. Meeting these expectations in a distributed architecture with a rich interface is complicated. We realized this early on. In the last couple of years, through our customer engagements and internal experiment we have successfully built applications that frequently exchange large volumes of data rapidly, maintains data integrity in distributed scenarios, scales to consumer applications loads, implements secure realms and integrates well with the popular server side frameworks, namely, Hibernate, Spring, Seam, Ruby on Rails, TurboGears.
