Abstract: What can a managed Subversion solution do to help .NET businesses solve their integration problems? Subversion meets the challenge of software development by allowing teams to use branching and tagging methods that help them work better with their QA organizations. It also saves .NET businesses a lot of money over setting up and maintaining a development infrastructure in house, which keeps the cost of ownership manageable.
Abstract: To build or not to build—that is the question. Is building an enterprise application from scratch better than modifying existing application code? With a .NET framework, the answer is an emphatic yes. Building applications from scratch using only .NET code not only provides cost savings, it also allows software developers to extend applications to users via the Internet—without sacrificing functionality or security.
Abstract: For mid-size manufacturers using Microsoft.NET-based ERP, computing-infrastructure translates into affordable business agility. .NET is a strategy for connecting systems, information and devices through Web services for ease of collaboration and communication. Integrated throughout Microsoft products, it enables manufacturers to quickly build, deploy, manage, and use connected solutions.
Abstract: IT initiatives driven within silos, where each department maintain its own project management office, inhibits the overall cohesiveness and effectiveness of corporate strategy. This document outlines best practices to centralize and deliver a scalable and robust project management framework strategy.
Abstract: Building replacement products on a new framework is a higher risk strategy. The product functionality still quite matters and, while it is important for enterprise applications providers to implement the latest computer science 'quantum leap', there is no guaranteed correlation between first-to-market and the ultimate success in the market (in fact, based on many experiences, one could even argue that the correlation might be inverse).
Abstract: Learn how AVCOM Technologies, a provider of comprehensive information technology (IT) products and suites to high-growth middle market companies, integrated its business processes with Microsoft .NET Framework and 'e by Epicor' suite.
Abstract: Every company needs a clear set of goals and objectives to achieve maximum benefits from its business intelligence (BI) and planning projects.

Learn how a software solution can provide essential BI and planning functions while setting the stage for future growth.
Abstract: Today’s mobile software companies face a daunting challenge: How can they achieve quality while getting to market swiftly? After all, speed is king in the mobile market. The trade-off between speed and quality in mobile software development is an illusion—or should be. Get a closer look at the situation with a framework that presents a way to use quality assurance (QA) processes to accelerate development.
Abstract: Jeff Bates's experience in developing and managing SourceForge.net and Slashdot communities sheds light on encouraging the interest of participants in the open source community. He discusses important technology considerations toward aiding distributed software development efforts.
Abstract: By harnessing .NET possibly more zealously than its creator Microsoft’s Great Plains and Navision enterprise counterparts, and while difficult market conditions continue to persist, Epicor might be showing us that ‘a brave heart and wise mind’ can keep it in the mid-market leadership race amongst aslew of formidable opponents.
Abstract: Sun and Microsoft have announced a settlement in Sun’s lawsuit regarding Microsoft’s use of Java technology. Microsoft was given the choice of conforming to the Java standard or opting out and they chose to opt out. Under terms of the agreement Microsoft cannot use Java in their forthcoming .NET initiative. Of course both vendors claim victory, but inevitably it will be the customer who loses.
