Business Applications Architect
-
Version
1.1
Rapid Application Development (RAD) tools, implemented
in BA Architect, allow developing and deploying
feature-rich database applications faster by
automating much of the development process and
eliminating repetitive tasks. An application is built
in the program's GUI without code writing. Display
forms and edit screens are created automatically in
run time. They reflect existing tables' fields and are
updated for changes in real-time mode. The settings of
maintenance forms are customisable through BA
Architect application repository. The solution
combines the availability of simplified application
development tools with the flexibility of fine-tuning
custom applications and adding Visual Basic.NET
scripts and event handlers.
By placing BA Architect tier between the presentation
level and the data access level you acquire additional
mobility for your custom application. It allows
transferring the application configuration between
different data sources without changing its code. The
implementation of validator controls provides higher
integrity and usability of data throughout your data
management architecture. Validation on incoming data
helps prevent security threats such as cross-site
scripting attacks and code-injection. By setting up
security controls over what users can do with the
objects and data in your application you restrict
access to sensitive information or prevent inadvertent
changes to code or objects on which the solution
depends. BA Architect offers three types of
authorisation depending on the locale of security
controls implementation: database server
authorization, operating system security controls and
application server authorization.
