Strategic Management of Information Systems - Web Services

Introduction

Along with the computer and network technology development, the enterprise informatization and digital gradually become reality. With the development of informatization and enterprise increasingly wide information requirement, the enterprise internal operation of the application system, the function demand will increase. However, these existing enterprise information system mostly autonomous operation, the connection degree between systems is very low, which result in different system of basic material repeated enter into, information resources sharing, primary applications department can use warm is not high, this needs in carrying out the information system integration, the information unified, standardized treatment (Johnson, 2009, 719-804).

It offers you our experience to define a specification, qualify all the technical and budgetary constraints to implement the solution that allows you to achieve your goals. It supports you, so partial or complete, in the study phase, design of software architecture, development, qualification and deployment of your solution.
