On-site Mentoring

The Eclipse community provides a wealth of on-line knowledge, but did you ever wish that there was someone in the office that you could turn to for your specific Eclipse questions? Now there can be. With our on-site mentoring program, one of our senior Eclipse developers will make regular monthly or weekly visits to your office to answer deep technical questions, help with plug-in designs or fix nasty bugs. We are also available on-line to help you through ECF collaboration.

Build Process Automation

To be truly successful with agile development, you need a continuous build process. For commercial or enterprise RCP, you need an automated build process to maintain quality assurance. Automated builds for Eclipse RCP and OSGi can be confusing, even frustrating. We have set up automated build processes for several companies in various environments, including CVS, Subversion, Clearcase, CruiseControl and BuildForge. We offer a one-week comprehensive set up for your RCP development, build and test environment. With our experience, you will get it right the first time. Your team will save days and your company will save dollars.

Outsourced Development

The modularity of OSGi and Eclipse make it very easy to outsource the development of components. Let us speed up the delivery of your next OSGi or RCP application. Whether we are building one bundle or an entire application, our expertise and experience will lower your risk of development. Our agile development methodology will give you complete visibility and control of what is built.
