The Leading Platform for Model Driven Architecture (MDA)

Overview Business is demanding shorter time-to-market, increased productivity and more cost-effective solutions; creating efficient well-run applications is vital for success. From the initial concept to the final release of an application, the ability to efficiently align the business needs with the software application is the key. ArcStyler from Interactive Objects offers the ability to create a dynamic link between business and technology. Application logic is captured in models which serve as the basis for automatic transformation to various technologies. This approach, which is fully compliant with the Model Driven Architecture concepts of the Object Management Group, enables companies to achieve significant productivity gains, greater flexibility to react to business change and reduced maintenance cost.
