Solutions from BSI are developed at our locations in Switzerland and Germany by software engineers with university degrees.
Our software is based on Eclipse Scout, a forward-leaning, open framework for the development of business applications. Scout is entirely based on Eclipse, OSGi and Java, which means it runs on all commonly used application servers.
Software from BSI specifically fulfills all the principles of Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), in which the full range of functionality is bundled on the server in the form of specific services. The business-relevant logic is thereby concentrated in a single location. The services obtain the data needed from a single database or other services and offer their functions to the client.
The logical distribution of functions, data and display reduces complexity, simplifies maintenance and delivers tangible advantages:
1. Integration
The services can also be very easily used by other applications or portals. Logic that has been developed once (e.g., price calculation) can thus be reused unlimitedly. BSI applications, such as BSI CTMS, can also use services that are already being used successfully within companies.
2. Time and cost-efficiency
The use of international technological standards provides openness and transparency in the software. The contents and scope of services can be clearly defined and flexibly organized – selectively within an internal IT department or through BSI's Customer Care or by external suppliers. With the Eclipse Scout Project, it is also possible for BSI and other developers to develop their software more rapidly, more securely and at lower cost.
3. Multi-Frontend
Because the entire logic is implemented in the central services, the software can be easily and leanly targeted towards various frontends. BSI CRM runs, for example, as a classic Java client, on Eclipse workstations, in Lotus Notes, as a Web solution in browsers, on the iPhone or on a Blackberry (starting 2011).
