Splash is a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner in the category of Independent Software Vendor. This designation is only gained through auditing and certification of a product that is built on Microsoft technologies. We also pride ourselves on our many talented employees who hold Microsoft Certified Professional designations in various areas.

One of the most important development platforms to come out of Microsoft in the past decade is the .NET platform which provides robust scalability for enterprise level development initiatives. We have worked with clients in converting legacy Microsoft applications developed using DNA architecture (Visual Basic, COM+, ASP) to more robust and connected .NET framework 2.0. We work with clients on new .NET 3.0 initiatives as well as upgrades to .NET 3.0 from previous versions.

Following is a brief summary of the most beneficial features of .NET frameworks based on our experiences with client projects:
  • Rapid Application Development can be achieved using Visual Studio development environment no matter if you want to develop Windows / client-server or distributed Web based applications. Visual studio makes the process development easier for developers and the .NET framework allows abstract based database programming allowing separation of business logic, data and UI. This results in increased productivity in a short amount of time without compromising the application’s enterprise strength system requirements.

    ASP.NET framework provides the fastest and most cost-effective way to create dynamic enterprise web applications. It also allows for the creation of AJAX enabled web applications for increased user experience and productivity.
  • Service Oriented Architecture can be achieved easily by developing ASP.NET Web Services. The .NET framework makes it easy to define service definitions and extensions of those definitions as Web Methods for calls over HTTP protocol using SOAP messages.
  • Integration with heterogeneous applications is improved with ASP.NET web services and Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) allows creation and consumption of the web services through a framework approach. Using Windows Workflow (WWF), business processes can be automated and orchestrated with other processes. This increases business agility and focus on core competencies and business growth.
