Database Applications

Developing Database Applications for business

The more you know about your customers, your suppliers, and your competitors, the better. Gathering, storing and processing of information in the form of databases can provide you with a distinct advantage

Using a sophisticated relational database management system allows you to do this, and the store of data that is built up over time can become increasingly useful and valuable. For example, historical data can show you business trends, or sales records can identify valuable customers. In addition, the disciplines required to gather, enter and process such data can help to ensure that your business is run in a regulated and properly managed way.

How can a database benefit your business?

Some of the advantages of using database technology in your business include:

• reducing the amount of time spent managing data
• giving you the ability to analyse data in a variety of ways
• promoting a disciplined approach to data management
• turning disparate information into a valuable resource
• improving the quality and consistency of information

The Software Development Lifecycle

Completing a full lifecycle of a development project consists of taking a software development effort through all seven industry-standard phases based on a sequential lifecycle model. The steps used in implementing software projects are;

• Initiation
• Planning
• Requirements
• Design and Analysis
• Development
• Testing
• Implementation

Managing your project

With years of experience in database application development, DBsolutionz is able to provide desktop solutions for any size business or non-profit organization.

The success of any software development effort depends on effective project management. timely, cost-effective delivery of products and services is critical. Because I understand our clients' concerns about cost containment and managing deadlines,a proven methodology for determining and managing project scope, deliverables, budget, timeline, development processes, and deployment issues is used.

An iterative approach to  Application Development

I have found that projects are most successful when our clients are given frequent opportunity for feedback. We favour an incremental approach to web projects, which means that we prefer to deliver the smallest, most important and most complete piece of a project first, and then to continue to build on top of that. This results in a series of small iterations, which over time add up to something spectacular.

Delivering a quality product

The Quality Assurance/testing phase of the software project are critical in ensuring the customer recieves a quality product that achieves the aims that were initially identified in the User requirements and design phases. Software testing is a rigorous process that includes the following steps;

• User Acceptance testing
• Unit testing
• Intergration testing
• Sytem testing
• User acceptance testing
