Positioning ITP-PANORAMA
Name of Product:
Panorama, because it gives the total overview over all applications.
Positioning:
- Powerful tool to raise productivity and quality of software (Maintenance, Modernization, Migration)
- Restart a maintenance project with ITP-PANORAMA and it will be finished in at least half of the time compared to any other tool-set
Target Group:
Companies that have to maintain large quantities of individually written applications in Finance, Automotive, Outsourcing, Government and many other markets
Main Use:
- Re-documentation of aging applications
- Cleaning the code from Open links, No longer used modules, Dead code
- Analyzing impact of changes
- Data Flow Analysis
- Daily Software Quality Analysis
- Controlling outsourcing projects
Main Benefit: (business point of view)
- Shorter time to market
- Higher quality of software
- Higher efficiency maitaining and modernizing coplex applications
- Higher productivity due to sub-second response time
- Cost savings resulting of high productivity
In Case of Outsourcing:
- Developers can work after a short learning period in unfamiliar applications
- Progress of development is visible and mesurable
- Output and quality of work can be verified
- Short ROI
Main Benefit: (technical point of view)
- All developers can understand applications
- Clean code is easier to maintain
- Quality through daily qualtiy analysis and cross-check
- Online, real-time documentation of all applications
- Because analysis are so fast, alternative solutions can be checked
- Individual reporting
Differentiators:
- HyperCube repository, in use since 2000, can provide capabilities not possible with relational databases
- Support of all common programming languages (legacy and modern), operating systems and databases
- Fast scanners allow daily updates
- Scanning includes compiling of all programs and cross-reference checking of all entities
- Ultra fast processing of unlimited amounts of your code (30m LOC COBOL in 90 Min.)
- Can use up to 16 parallel processors in an analyses/search/selection
- Analysis/searches/selections even in 60 million lines of code processed in less than a second (on average)
- Results shown with all relationships and all dependencies
- Data Flow Analysis across applications displayed in flow chart graphic
- Function Point Analysis computed per statement shows real complexity of selected parts of applications
- Extracting of business objects from legacy code (in development)
