JAVA EE Expertise

Java's momentum has moved from a niche programming language to a mainstream platform that is robust enough for a spectrum of applications from scientific to business. New versions of existing technologies along with new technologies continue to augment the Java EE technology platform.

Reusability is the “mantra” that can beckon the attention of developers, managers, and the decision makers. It promises savings in the form of shorter engineering efforts and increased quality. Reusability occurs through using Java as a programming environment, but more reusability occurs when you add Java EE components. Java's OO nature and the standards of Java EE are a progression toward achieving high degrees of reusability.

Aztecsoft makes significant investments in building reusable components and frameworks through its TCoE (Technology Center of Excellence). This organization is virtually run and managed like a product development company, and has enabled faster and high quality delivery of solutions to our end customers.

Aztecsoft takes pride in its in-depth technical expertise and skills in server side software infrastructure and middleware. Aztecsoft is an early adopter of Java and XML, and pioneers in the Internet Middleware realm that include technologies like Applications Servers, Messaging, Scalability, Caching, Workflow, and Transaction Management.
