ROSS technology

Technology is changing faster and faster. System lifecycles are becoming shorter. At Ross Systems, we provide innovative solutions that leverage current technologies. We also take a pragmatic approach to ensure that your investments today will be fully leveraged as technology shifts occur in the future. For manufacturers that operate on tight profit margins, this is paramount to your long-term success with enterprise applications.

The ROSS applications are built atop an Internet-based foundation known as the ROSS Internet Application Framework (IAF). The IAF provides many unique capabilities:

Browser-Based Deployment
Access to your ROSS applications requires only an Internet connection via Microsoft Internet Explorer. No software need be installed on the client. All administration and maintenance activities are confined to the application server. System upgrades, applied to the server, are instantly available to all users, even remote users, with no client maintenance required.

Application Independence
The architecture of the Internet Application Framework provides separation between the applications and the underlying technologies. Either the applications or the underlying technologies can undergo upgrades and other changes without necessitating a change to the other.

Broad Connectivity
The Internet Application Framework utilizes the connectivity standards of XML Web Services to provide connections between ROSS applications and employees, partners, other systems and devices.
