Power RIA Frontends for Power Users
CaptainCasa Enterprise is THE Rich Internet Application solution for Business Applications with demanding users.
Are we talking about ...You?
You develop a server side Business Application, which is heavily used by your typical users. Your users expect great performance, high interactivity and all-day-use-robustness. Maybe you are in the area of logistics and some users operate with touch screen devices. And: aside your operational users, some users want to see certain screens in plain browsers as well, maybe using a PDA device. - Your application is not a small one, but has quite a lot of screens to show and tasks to solve.
What we provide: CaptainCasa Enterprise Client
Captain Casa Enterprise Client is a rich client framework consisting of:
- A Java based generic User Interface client with an extremely rich set of components.
- An HTML based generic User Interface client for simple screens.
- A Java Server Faces (JSF) based backend processing.
- Frontend technology for complete server side Java applications with operational users.
- Frontend technology for those parts of server side applications, which are used in an operational environment.
- Both "classic" applications and SaaS-applications (Software as a Service).
- Frontend speed and interactivity! 20-50 times faster than AJAX.
- Pixel-accurate compatibility throughout various browsers and frontend operating systems.
- Very simple programming, based on JSF standards. Focused on the needs of application developers. No client coding required. Solid Java knowhow is enough.
- Both declarative layout definition (supported by WYSIWYG layout editor) and dynamic layout definition (by program).
- Open component interface.
- Easy to integrate and re-distribute as part of your server side application.
- Full internationalization.
- Low client cost of ownership due to generic client concept.
- Flexible licensing: from free usage (no service) up to source code rights for securing long term investments.
Rich Client Solutions
Users' Expectations
The User Interface is one of the most crucial elements of your enterprise application. It's the only piece of technology that your user is confronted with.
And it's a crucial element of your development cost as well.
After some years of "hype" in the area of Rich Web Clients we have learned that browser based technologies are not adequate to serve the needs of all users.
System Architects' Expectations
The 1990s was the decade of the fat clients. Fat Clients met the performance and interactivity requirements of users - but had structural disadvantages.
Today the "Rich Client" is the architectural concept of choice: the logical part of an application resides on servers "in the back" and the frontend is brought to the end user without significant cost of installation.
Designing and developing fast and robust Rich Client user interfaces is tough. You need to plan how client side processing integrates with server side processing. You need to think about the frequency of roundtrips and the data volume of roundtrips. You need to think about the server processing model which should serve different client types: from a rich client up to a mobile phone's screen.
And you need to think about development productivity and tools to support you.
CaptainCasa
CaptainCasa is building Rich Client frameworks with focus on:
- Fast and interactive rich client frontends
- Covering interaction scenarios in the range from "simple" to "complex"
- Simple user interface design and simple plugging to the server side application
CaptainCasa is pushed and backed by a corporate community of mid range software companies using CaptainCasa Enteprise Client as essential element of their applications.
