TenFold Corporation, provider of EnterpriseTenFold SOA, an SOA-compliant, Ajax-enabled solutions framework for adding functionality to existing applications and building enterprise-scale applications, announced today that the University of Utah DIGIT lab is now in production with its TenFold-powered Facility Management System.
"We used EnterpriseTenFold SOA to build the University of Utah Facility Management System (UUFM) in record time," said Adam Sobek, Director of University of Utah DIGIT Lab. "UUFM elegantly integrates university planning operations by tracking space at many resolutions (room, division, dept, college), reporting space graphically and tabularly, and facilitating space planning. We combined ESRI’s(R) enterprise geographical information systems (ArcSDE(C)) and TenFold technology to create UUFM. UUFM uses a geo-relational data model to answer spatial questions and to let TenFold handle user interfaces, database connections, software integration, and applications processing."
"The SOA architecture of ESRI’s ArcSDE(C) and Enterprise TenFold SOA are strikingly similar," continued Sobek. "Both have a metadata database (TenFold Dictionary and SDE) that controls the behavior of applications services. UUFM uses both metadata databases and stores all facilities data in a single UUFM applications database. This lets all data that TenFold manages to be viewed spatially, like on a map, but also makes it easy to analyze and report square footage GIS."
"We are pleased that the University of Utah DIGIT Lab has a successful applications implementation, especially since UUFM so cleverly integrates GIS, spatial manipulation, and TenFold technology," said Sally White, TenFold’s VP of Business Development.
