A Web service is a standard platform for building interoperable distributed applications. Web services are pieces of program logic, that are programmatically available via the Internet. These pieces of program logic which are in the form of objects, can be invoked from any client over HTTP. A Web service can be written with its properties and methods available to other developers across the Web. In a typical Web services scenario, a business application sends a request to a service at a given URL, using the SOAP protocol over HTTP. The service receives the request, processes it, and returns a response.

A Web service written in ASP.NET could be used by any other platform.

Many organizations already operate large enterprise environments based on either Java or Microsoft .NET. Hence if the company perceives a need for a new application or addition to their current architecture, the natural tendency is to start thinking in terms of the currently implemented environment. This is sometimes referred to as Technology Aligned Environment. Decisions about enhancing the current environment involved are more closely attuned to the existing system rather than the technology that provides the best platform.

Designing enterprise systems using either J2EE or Microsoft .NET is an expensive business, but there are often sound business reasons for organizations to implement a mixed environment that has elements of each platform. Interoperability is a key requirement for many enterprises, allowing internal systems to work together and enable businesses to connect to customers, external partners, and suppliers. With ever increasing requirements for efficiency, responsiveness, and cost cutting, interoperability is a key demand for the modern IT environment.

Effective interoperability projects take the approach that an organization should use the best technology for the job at hand. If a company creates the majority of its applications in-house, there may be more factors pushing in the direction of staying with the current environment. However, if you need to implement a third-party solution or want to make use of features that only .NET offers, interoperability offers an effective mechanism for ensuring that the two environments work together.

Interoperability is a major factor in the following areas of business needs:

• Achieving reuse of existing systems
• Implementing proof of concept studies
• Migration to Microsoft .NET
• Achieving lower project costs

If your company is performing the same tasks on a regular basis using Microsoft Excel, you should consider automating these systems. Automation saves time, reduces human error, and allows more than one person to control the process. Virtually any action that can be performed in Excel can be automated. Excel can also be customized to connect with databases, display automated reports, and even pull data from the web.

Microsoft Word can be programmed to automate any task associated with document creation and publication. The most common application is the generation of letters or reports from data located at a different location. For example, an investment bank may create security prospectuses for clients based on records in its Contact Management System.

MS Outlook can be used for much more than sending e-mails and maintaining contacts. With a little programming, you can create forms for surveys and feedback, develop customized calendars, or share contact and other information between employees.

Microsoft Visual Studio Tools for the Microsoft Office System is a new technology that brings the power and productivity of Visual Studio .NET and the Microsoft .NET Framework to business solutions built on the next versions of Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel. With this technology, developers using Visual Studio .NET 2003 can use Microsoft Visual C#.NET to write code behind Microsoft Office based applications.

Maximize Technologies has extensive experience in developing secure, easily deployable MS Office applications using .NET and its inherent support for XML and XML web services.

With the “hold steady” investment approach of the last few years, many organizations had to delay development of new business applications. As investment begins to rise, so does the need for custom application development. Maximize designs and develops enterprise custom applications, which are categorized on the high level as e-business applications, desktop applications, and office applications. While designing and developing these applications, we use appropriate .NET technologies like Web Services, ASP.NET, ADO.NET, XML, WinForms, .NET Enterprise Servers, and Smart Tags.

The Microsoft .NET Technology Practice at Maximize Technologies evaluates, develops, and delivers enterprise and Web applications that will shape the markets of tomorrow. Our .NET driven mission is to "enable enterprises to implement manageable, predictable, and cost-effective IT infrastructure and world-class solutions based on Microsoft Technologies" and to "provide World-class .NET solutions to deliver significant business value to our partners and customers".

The .NET platform and technologies provide organizations with framework services, server products, and developmental tools that enable scalable e-business solutions. These encompass collaboration, integration, e-commerce, and content management. Using .NET, organizations can build B2C, B2B, Desktop and Office applications. Web services technology implemented in .NET enables organizations integrate several other applications running on disparate platforms.

• Application Architecture Service
  E-business requires scalable, high-performance, secure, and rapidly deployable solutions. The Application Architecture Service enables an organization to develop extensible, scalable, and secure application architectures that are based on the .NET platform. Maximize's Proof-of-Concept service reduces an organization's risk of adopting new technologies by developing the solutions in a smaller scale to validate the technology and the usefulness of the solution.
  
  
• Custom Application Development Service
  Maximize designs and develops enterprise custom applications which are categorized on the high level as e-business applications, desktop applications, and office applications. While designing and developing these applications, we use appropriate .NET technologies like Web Services, ASP.NET, ADO.NET, XML, WinForms, .NET Enterprise Servers, and Smart Tags.
  
  
• .NET Enablement Service
  Many organizations adopt .NET technology to solve specific business problems. Maximize enables organizations to fully utilize .NET benefits such as integration capabilities and single sign-on capabilities. We offer these services, based on .NET Web Services and Microsoft's Passport technologies, without changing the software components in existing applications.
  
  
• .NET Migration Service
  Microsoft .NET technologies offer several benefits to an organization such as low cost of ownership, high Return on Investment (ROI), and a highly stable enterprise application platform. This service enables organizations to port the existing applications on .NET platform. The migration service follows the state-of-the-art home grown methodology, which guarantees smooth transition of application on the new platform.
