Introduction of SDA What is SDA?

an engineering process automation tool that already has built in support for software development.

web based and is geared towards team development.

built on J2EE technologies like EJBs, Struts, Servlets, JSP and more.

The SDA UI framework is built upon a leading open source portal called Liferay.

Features of SDA (continued…)

Automates:○      guiding the team through the process○      clerical, tedious tasks & handoffs○      process compliance○      team collaboration & coordination○      collection of metrics & status

Project Wide Visibility○      process ‘execution’○      project status

Build, Deploy & Maintain Software○      faster & easier○      higher quality & safety○      less expensively

Process Optimization Project Reporting & Dashboard Process Customization & Tailoring

System Details

The team should either select an open source content management tool or develop one for the integration.

The tool should store the content in a database. Preferably works with multiple leading database management tools like SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle etc

The tool should allow certain users with the appropriate right to create/modify the content with a rich text editor.

The tool should display the managed content to other users in a read only format.

REQUIREMENTS

Provide a link for editing the processes

Solution Approaches Two solution Approaches

Research

○ Search a wiki ○ An open source content management tool

Should store the content in a databaseShould allow users to create/modifyShould support rich text editingShould support access control mechanism

Solution ApproachesDevelopment.

○ Database approach○ Plan of development

Search an open source web based editor Integrate searched editor into SDA Provide access control by applying

locking mechanism

Solution Approaches

Why not 1st approach?Although has all the functionalities its big in size

.Hard to integrate

Choose 2nd approach.The rich text editor is lightweight We can build staging area easily with the help of

databases Its easy to integrate lightweight text editor.

Proposed design The staging area can be built using two

separate databases Database 1: Publish area

Stores all the data published

Database 2 : Working area Copies a record which is being modified from

publish database each record is locked by particular user
