Project Management

We typically use a hosted instance of Trac or Redmine for project management. Customers are

also given access to the project tracking software. Trac and Redmine have integrated version

control (Subversion), wiki, task and milestone management, document management and bug

tracking facilities. In addition, we have integrated build tools like Cruise Control. Our clients canget all project related documentation and reports in one central place accessible from anywhere.

Quality

Our goal is to deliver quality products to our customers, which means products that meet all the

functional as well as non-functional requirements such as speed, scalability, reliability,

availability and maintainability.

We rely on agile processes to achieve our goals. We understand that requirements evolve and

change during the project life cycle and definitely during the product lifetime. These changes

may be driven by new technologies, which change user expectations. Changes become

necessary when your organization grows where you could go from a shared hosting to adedicated server to maybe a load balanced server cluster (if your application becomes very

popular). There is no such thing as future-proofed software. Source code must undergo

continuous enhancements and refactoring. This is where agile methodologies play an important

role in. By creating automated unit and functional tests, developers get the confidence to

continuously re-factor and improve. Changes to source code that break the application are

caught by running automated tests.

A project is split into multiple time-boxed iterations. Depending on the nature of the project,

each iteration would typically last 2 to 6 weeks and would implement a set of use cases and

feature sets. Customer interaction is crucial for the success of iterative projects.

Customers

Our development teams in India are dealing with wide range of Customers. Customers are

diverse in terms of their nature of business and geographical location. They range from brick-

and-mortar construction companies through web 2.0 Internet startups. Partial lists of customers

Projects

Our team has successfully built and deployed close to one hundred web applications using

different MVC web app frameworks like Symfony, CakePHP, Django, Zend, Struts, Spring, Ruby

on Rails, and .NET. We have extensively used one or more JavaScript and AJAX toolkits like

ExtJS, Scriptaculous, Prototype, Dojo, JQuery, YUI and MooTools to bring richness and

responsiveness to the UI. Most of these webapps are powered by MySQL database, but on somespecific developments we have used databases like SQL Server, Oracle and PostgreSQL. We

have also used non-relational databases like Google’s BigTable for one of our app engine

projects and Lucene in a few others where there is a lot of unstructured and text data. These

webapps are hosted in a variety of environments - shared, dedicated, virtual dedicated and of

late mostly up there in the cloud (Amazon EC2, Flexiscale and Google).

Mentioned below are some of our interesting and featured projects:

Full-text Search Engine and Document Delivery System

This site delivers 10 million+ pageviews a month and has an Alexa worldwide rank of 1600. Our customer who owns this site started operations in 2004 and is now #1 intheir space. The website primarily serves documents. The website primarily serves morethan 50 million documents stored in MySQL database. Read-only replicas of thisdatabase allow distribution of load between multiple servers. The site has a powerfulfull-text search feature built on top of the open-source Lucene search engine. Lucene's

indexer indexes the documents in the database and stores them in multiple indexshards. Each shard or fragment is of a manageable size. Searches are parallelized andhandled by around 10 search servers with each server handling a portion of the index.The results are merged, ranked and served by the web servers. System architecture isakin to and inspired by Google.

The site is also search-engine friendly with all 50 million documents in the site beingspidered and indexed by Google. The data assets are monetized through GoogleAdSense and a document delivery system for paying customers. The site also offersfeatures like saved searches, search-term alerts and portfolios. The site was developedusing PHP, Symfony, Java, iBatis, Lucene and MySQL. Load balancing and high-availability was achieved by having a system with multiple web and search servers, andhaving read-only replicas of the MySQL database

Business Process Management / Workflow Application

This customer, an asset management company with billions of dollars undermanagement, is geographically distributed with branches in Chicago, New York, Denverand India, besides having financial advisors and partners throughout the US. Eachlocation performs specific functions. Denver is responsible for trading, Chicago forcustomer service and New York for portfolio management. The branches have to

operate in concert to complete a business process like opening a new account orrebalancing a portfolio. An account opening process would involve actors at multiplelocations - the financial adviser would fax in the account opening form, Chicago willprocess the form and initiate money transfer, New York will decide what assets to keepand what to sell, Denver would trade based on instructions by the asset manager and

India would do the reconciliation and generate statements. Instructions wereexchanged between offices over fax or phone, since email was insecure given thesensitive nature of the data.

We were asked to provide a solution that links the various tasks within a process and

track the performance of each department. After studying the various BPM solutions in

the market, we zeroed in on jBPM the open source BPM solution in Java. jBPM is prettypowerful and supports decisions, forking and ability to fork child processes. jBPM allowsprocesses to be defined as XML files, and these files can be created graphically using agraphical process editor. Other technologies used include Hibernate, Struts and Tiles.SQL Server was used as the database.

Operational Support Systems for a Wireless Broadband Services Provider

This customer is a provider of high-speed wireless broadband services for businesses inthe UK. They started operations in 2006 and in order to scale their operations they

needed a good Operational Support System (OSS). They selected us for building acustom OSS to automate their operations. We are in the process of incrementally

building this system. We have already created an intranet and customer portal. Thecustomer portal currently has a help desk (ticketing system), knowledge base and livechat. Support Suite from Kayako was seamlessly integrated with the portal. The

intranet currently has a team directory, discussion forum (phpBB) and wiki (mediawiki).Salesforce is used for tracking leads and opportunities, and Google apps is used forcalendaring, managing meetings and email. We integrated SalesForce and Google Appswith the intranet. Users are provisioned from a single point - the admin doesn't have togo to the admin panel of each application to do that. Also, when the end-user signs in

to intranet, they are logged into all other apps, thanks to single-sign-on.

Vendor Management Systems for a Big Construction Company

This customer is a $350 million construction company having thousands of employeesand a large number of contractors. Headquartered in Dublin, CA, they specialize in

heavy, highway and civil engineering construction. They needed a system to keep trackof hourly rates, worker skill level and training, accidents, disability and insuranceinformation, work and worker locations and equipment usage and rentals.

We developed the system using Spring, Hibernate, Oracle database and Dojo for

automating the personnel-management related requirements. The key feature of thissystem is that there is only one page. The different sections of that page are updatedthrough AJAX calls. This makes it very usable since all the information about anemployee or contractor is accessible from the same page, thereby improving theefficiency of supervisors. This system also interfaces with the other enterprise systemslike Dispatch, Accounting and Payroll.
