When you develop a service-oriented application, it would be naive of you to
expect that the only things you will do differently will be limited to design
and technology. The development process itself needs to be service-oriented. You
cannot "stare into the fire" of technologies such as
WCF
without a mature service-oriented development process supporting your efforts. We have developed
a highly effective service-oriented development process you can adopt. This
process is compatible with
CMM
level 2-3, and is ideal for small teams (less than 15 developers.)
IDesign
can help your organization reach and maintain this service-oriented
development process and apply it to your .NET and Cloud based products.
This process will enable you to achieve robust applications, manage
requirements, plan and track your progress and ensure faster time to market. We
will help you analyze the risks associated with first-time SOA design attempts,
and ways to minimize them. We will review the current development processes and
provide you with a development plan and other tools associated with a mature
process such as document templates and development standards, and we will do all
that in one week. We call such a week SPI (Software Process Improvement).
The goal of the SPI week is to produce the Software Development Plan (SDP) –
a comprehensive document outlining every aspect of your product development. The
week starts with a one day training on what is it we are about to do and how.
Click here to watch an MSDN
webcast outlining the planning and tracking module of the first day. In days 2-5
of the process improvement week we proceed to implement every key process area
covered in the training, all in the context of your project and team. All the
items in the SDP are tailored for your particular project, not some boilerplate
search-and-replace. You will end up with a turn-key process, ready to proceed
and execute on the system development.
Note that the key to applying the IDesign process is a
good architecture.
If you have that, then the rest of the key process areas will
fall into place.
