Technology Principles
Technology is at the heart of what we do, harnessing some of the lasted advancements to continually adapt and improve our offering. We pride ourselves on being a solution for any business type owing to the design principles of our software: scalability, open and flexible technology and easy integration.
Scalability
MetaPack software is horizontally scalable by adding multiple application instances and databases over a limitless number of servers.
Easy integration
MetaPack software is easy to integrate. Please refer to our development site for information on the extensive API library, how to access integration support and how to use sample code to compile webservices. Our software supports multiple transports, protocols and formats: transports are based on TCP/IP based communication; protocols include SOAP, HTTP, FTP and JMS; formats include XML, CSV and plain text. Each of the protocols maybe used within our systems to fit a different requirement.Open and flexible technology
Our software is open and flexible, supporting databases, applications servers, operating systems and hardware platforms from most major vendors.
Benefits
- Independence of hardware and operating system due to the use of 100% pure Java
- Standards compatibility eg all software is designed to fit into the J2EE framework. Development standards are adhered to and strictly enforce database neutrality
- Easy upgrades because user interfaces, application logic and data stores are cleanly partitioned
- Suitability to operations spread across a range of countries and logistical environments because all user interfaces run in web browsers
