Ross Systems' Enhanced Internet Application Framework Embraces Servic
Ross Systems' Enhanced Internet Application Framework Embraces Service-Oriented Architecture for Flexible Enterprise Solutions Advanced Platform Provides Business Agility and Stability for Mid-Sized Manufacturers
Ross Systems ("Ross"), a software unit of chinadotcom corporation (NASDAQ: CHINA), today announced that through the use of its iRenaissance enterprise resource planning ("ERP") and Web services-based architecture, the Internet Application Framework (IAF), Ross customers are reporting enhanced return on their IT investment, improved stability and increased scalability. Leveraging current, open standards with IAF, Ross customers are able to quickly and cost-effectively extend business processes across the enterprise to better meet customer demand with real-time decision-making applications.
Companies today are looking to build their business on a flexible platform to cost-effectively address growing requirements for integration of internal and external systems. Realizing this need, Ross has architected its leading ERP solutions to enable customers like Jennmar Corporation, an internationally recognized specialty bolt design and steel support systems manufacturer, to leverage iRenaissance into existing applications to drive greater business value. With iRenaissance, Jennmar capitalizes on the flexibility of a service-oriented architecture (SOA), with the ability to continually map solutions to evolving business needs, across platforms and locations.
"The architecture of iRenaissance and IAF provide us the ability to implement solutions to meet Jennmar's unique business needs, while retaining the rich business logic inherent in iRenaissance," said Ted Benham, vice president of information technology for Jennmar. "We are able to apply IAF to our existing and developing applications and infrastructure without the fear of getting boxed in. Our integration requirements are easily addressed and cost-effectively maintained with iRenaissance IAF. With the flexibility of a completely browser-based platform, we can deploy the system with no client software installations and access the system from remote locations, including portable wireless devices."
Ross today announced the general availability of the latest version of its IAF. With improved efficiency and flexibility in the form of reusable software services for iRenaissance applications, IAF leverages Web services to enable interoperability within a SOA. As a Web-based platform incorporating .NET and XML technologies, IAF appeals not only to IT staff but directly addresses real business needs of today.
"Ross is dedicated to providing the most advanced technology for its customers, bringing innovation to their doorstep while continually meeting industry-specific business challenges," said Eric Musser, CTO of Ross Systems. "A genuine standards-based platform that companies can evolve with, IAF revolutionizes the way our customers deploy and maintain enterprise applications and improve the way they do business."
