What is TriCorons strategy to avoid vendor lock-in from the technical architecture standpoint?
This is a critical area of system architecture and design. Your applications should be able to run efficiently on any type of hardware, in any operating environment, in any environment your customers demand. You should also be able to leverage the time-to-market advantages of pre-built subsystems and components. For purposes of discussion, consider an extreme case. Let’s say that, one day, object databases become dominant and replace today’s relational databases. TriCoron’s PRO-Objects architecture permits you to swap in another object persistence model, even if you desire to eliminate your relational databases. We also strongly recommend you import only org, java/javax, and your local domain-specific packages into your application classes. TriCoron’s generated Struts Forms and Action classes do just this. If you import only org, java/javax, and your local domain-specific packages, your application and local domain logic will be far less locked-in to a specific technology, if at all. P
