In addition to the listed software, Artemis supports many legacy software and development platforms as well. Artemis highly recommends IIS (Web Server Technology), ASP.NET (Server Side Technology) the .NET Framework (Developmental Framework), and IRIS (Content Management System).
Scalability: Microsoft .NET and IIS scales easily and quickly. It scales to multi-processor, multi-machines (clusters), thereby supporting an unlimited number of connected users, and easily growing along with any website.
Performance: With the use of compiled code, the application performs faster than scripted interpreted languages, allowing reduced hardware and bandwidth costs. With these technologies responsiveness stays optimal even with thousands of connected users.
Extensible: Content and new functionality can easily be created and deployed through our content management systems.
Integration: Websites can be easily integrated with line of business applications such as: accounting systems, inventory management systems, supply chain, and management software.
Enhanced Security: By conforming to Microsoft best practices, we ensure that your data is properly secured, and if necessary (as gathered during the requirements gathering step) data transmission can be encrypted. Also, with the use of Managed code in .NET, application code is protected in a security sandbox.
