Reengineering
of a Document Management system
Problem
The client was faced with the
fact that its document management
system, written on C language
and based on client-server architecture,
was out-of-date and demanded thorough
review, since neither functionality
nor security aspects were acceptable.
Moreover, modules in different
departments were not integrated,
which resulted in serious lags
and hindrances in document movement
within the organization. The client
needed a reengineering of the
whole system including Data Base
redesign and data porting with
the possibility of further integration
of modules in different departments
into the unified system.
Solution
InnoInco was engaged as a software
development company for the task.
Since existing “client-server”
architecture was obviously outdated
technologically, it was decided
to switch to three-tier architecture
with usage of all benefits of
J2EE platform. Flexible solution
that was developed enabled further
successful integration of other
modules into the common system.
Working together with the customer
consultants InnoInco implemented
the following features into the
final solution:
- Registration of ingoing and
outgoing correspondence
- Registration of normative
documents
- Registration and tracking
of document orders
- Automatic report generation
- Search and filtration functions
Benefits for the customer
- New architecture brings technological
benefits such as advanced level
of security, good maintainability
etc.
- It is possible to integrate
other modules within the organization
into the developed system without
significant efforts
- New GUI brought additional
productivity and efficiency
to end users work
Technologies:
Oracle JDeveloper (IDE), J2EE
(EJB, Swing); Oracle 9i, Oracle
Application Server; JACOB (for
printing into MS Word).
