(PRWEB) August 19, 2004 -- The advantages of portals can be summarised succinctly in a few words: user friendlier, cheaper and securer. Many organisations, however, are holding back from enterprise portal projects. SCORE Adaptive Bridges from Delta Software Technology clears the hurdles to portal projects through quick and easy integration of the back-end systems.

The recently released version 3.0 of SCORE Adaptive Bridges from Delta Software Technology enables the direct usage of legacy functionality in enterprise portals. Gerd Dietrich, Application Development Manager at Schorch highlighted the ability of the product to connect the different worlds: SCORE Adaptive Bridges lets us build bridges between the old and new worlds – without detailed technical skills in the middleware or portal environments."

SCORE Adaptive Bridges quickly and simply integrates strategic legacy applications and databases into JSR 168 compliant enterprise portals, guaranteeing a fast ROI. In this context Ruediger Schilling, CEO at Delta Software Technology, emphasises ROEI – the return on existing investment, then in this case they are talking about the return on the investment that has already been made.

The following factors have emerged as being crucial to the success of enterprise portal projects:

1. Implementation within Budget – SCORE Adaptive Bridges generates the complete integration code and automatically builds the bridges between the new and old (development) worlds. Project durations are reduced and costly training is not required. In this way even the largest projects can be implemented within budget.

2. Reduced Risk in Selecting a Portal Product – The market for portal products is still developing and it is not yet clear who will survive the inevitable consolidation in the market and emerge as the winner. Deltas generator technology guarantees vendor independence. The investment is secure – totally independent of future technologies. A new platform is only a mouse click away.

3. Easy to Integrate Back-End Applications – SCORE Adaptive Bridges frees the development work from all the technical ballast. System specific generators take care of all the details of the implementation – quickly, simply and reliably.

4. Easy to Adapt to Business Processes – SCORE Adaptive Bridges makes the functionality of existing applications available as Adaptive Services within the framework of service oriented architecture (SOA). Multiple interfaces and choreography functions ensure that it is always possible to provide the optimum service. This makes it easy to bring portals and the business processes together.

5. Cost Effectiveness – SCORE Adaptive Bridges implements the concept of Integration in Motion", which states that integration is not a one-off event, but is an on-going process in a continually changing world. An incremental approach is actively supported with a non-invasive integration of the back-end systems, enabling a secure long-term return on existing investment (ROEI).

SCORE Adaptive Bridges helps to clear the hurdles that currently stand in the way of successfully achieving enterprise portal projects, and to maximize the return on existing investment. At the same time, SCORE Adaptive Bridges guarantees flexibility for future developments and protects investments into the long term.

SCORE Adaptive Bridges is available in three editions. Express Edition – Focuses on ease of use and low introduction costs. Advanced Edition – Adds project team support and advanced data. integration. Enterprise Edition – Offers extreme flexibility for the largest and most demanding projects.
