1 | Sustainability As the database and programming technologies move on, so should your organisation. SSDM facilitates this change. |
| |
2 | Code Continuity A programmer can modify someone else's code as if it was his own years after it has been written. Thus, no code is written twice. |
| |
3 | Unified Culture Not everybody programmes the same way. Besides, programmers may have bad coding habits despite their formal education. SSDM encourages a unified software development culture across the organisation to eradicate these differences. |
| |
4 | Better Design 60% of the delays in a project can be avoided by better design. To promote this, SSDM accommodates a "design and code" model instead of a "sit down and code" model. |
| |
5 | Automation Automatic code and database generation from UML diagrams by the Sibilo.SDE application allow the organisation to focus its resources on value add activities. |
| |
6 | Rapidity SSDM is designed to support quick release cycles with the help of an automatic code generation tool, Sibilo.SDE, and an O/RM layer, Sibilo.DBL, for object/relational mapping. |
| |
7 | Reliability Reduces coding errors and testing times by guaranteeing a faultless database interaction. |
| |
8 | Flexibility The programmer is flexible in designing the user interface and the business logic layers. Hence, SSDM supports the development of any database application. |
| |
9 | Partner Network The number of software houses that adopt SSDM is rapidly increasing. These partners can divide their workload by collaborating with each other. |
| |
10 | Central Code Repository Reusable code and controls are gathered in a central repository, to which only SSDM partners have access. Partners also help develop the code in this repository. |
| |
11 | Cost Savings The improved efficiency allowed by SSDM results in both short-term and long-term cost savings. |
| |
12 | Proven Model SSDM is not a purely theoretical system; it is a model tried and tested in commercial projects with all the benefits listed here. Hundreds of thousands of people regularly use applications developed with SSDM. |
