Porting Large J2EE App to .NET
KANA wanted to port its KANA iCARE enterprise customer relationship management application from J2EE to the Microsoft .NET Framework. There were two major business goals to this porting effort: to expand its sales base to customers running the Microsoft .NET Framework rather than Java 2 Enterprise Edition, and to reuse much of their Java-language source code when building the .NET application.
We developed a platform-independent layer that allows the same Java-language code base to be compiled and executed on both .NET and J2EE. The platform independent layer consists of wrappers for the core services in J2EE and .NET: database access, messaging middleware, and web presentation frameworks.
This project is described in more detail in a Microsoft customer case study. It is representative of the kinds of projects that we can execute for you.
