Rich Application Development

We build personalized software applications to drive your site. These applications work hard for the function your site needs, like publishing information or generating revenue.


We do not use off-the-shelf development, but rather our premium Component Studio (VACS) to develop sites that are complex, not complicated. We use the highest standard of technologies such as .NET, SQL, XML, Flash, and AJAX to build the right WebApps for you - like shopping carts, content management systems, video players, social networks, and much more.

Web users see and interact with the front-end, or User Interface (UI). What they do not see is on the back-end, the behind-the-scenes programming code that is Rich Application Development. This software is the platform on which a site sits, and is the power behind publishing new content, video players, gathering valuable data about visitors, getting new leads or sales, or allowing user interaction with each other. For example, our Content Management Systems does not require you to be a programmer or a webmaster to be able to update your site. Simple point and click, or dynamic automation, allows anyone to easily publish text, pictures, videos, blogs, and links.

With V/A’s rich software applications, our website developers maximize the functionality of these web technology services. This infrastructure will help to increase traffic, increase sales, and streamline information for increased productivity. Utilizing the Virtual Atlantic Component Studio (VACS) our web development strategies identify the appropriate web 2.0 technologies and analyze what will suit your particular business needs including key elements such as database development, Customer Relationship Management (CRM) integration, electronic payment and inventory systems, and mutlimedia delivery (informative video and audio). In short, to help run business more efficiently.

Virtual Atlantic’s Component Studio

As a complementary development resources to our MC-LCD© Virtual Atlantic has, over the course of our seven year history, built and refined the Virtual Atlantic Component Studio (VACS). To a great extent it is this toolset which allows us to rapidly, effectively and economically develop complex sites for our respective clients, across diverse domains.
VACS

The VACS is a knowledge base driven repository of essential software elements. Unlike development environments solely applying Off-the-shelf or Open-Source building blocks in the construction of a site, Virtual Atlantic draws from the extensive library of more granular, agile and scaleable components composing the VACS.

Building from such a level allows us to realize the true architectural objectives of a site unencumbered by the limitations inherent in the use of larger, generalized constructs. In fact then, Virtual Atlantic demonstrates the ability to design and achieve a site matched point-for-point to requirements from the ground up, while at the same time maintaining the economies of re-use.
