CorasWorks(R) Unveils Building Composite Applications on SharePoint(R)

Releases Third White Paper in Modular Application Development Series

RESTON, Va., Dec. 3 -- CorasWorks Corporation, a leading provider of modular application development software for Microsoft's SharePoint platform, has announced the release of the third white paper in its modular application development series. The white paper titled "Building Composite Applications on SharePoint" focuses on composite applications, specifically building composite applications on the Microsoft SharePoint platform.

"With this white paper, we've introduced a new and unique approach to composite application development that leverages the unique modular, integrated, and distributed nature of SharePoint," said William Rogers, Founder and Chief Workplace Architect. "The result is that the more than 10,000 organizations using SharePoint are able to dramatically boost the business value that they derive from it."

By definition, a composite application is an application that is comprised of many different components potentially coming from many different sources. The white paper discusses the design impact of SharePoint on composite applications and explains why SharePoint is a natural front-end environment for composite applications. It also presents 11 core composite application design patterns with corresponding business examples; and discusses best practices for incorporating composite applications into your overall SharePoint environment.

The white paper also introduces the CorasWorks Data Integration Toolset ("CorasWorks Toolset"), a software product designed specifically for building composite applications on SharePoint, without custom code development. The CorasWorks Toolset is the enabler for building composite applications that use a combination of in-house (e.g. ERP, CRM, databases) and external systems with SharePoint as the front end.

Through this white paper series, CorasWorks is making knowledge available to developers, CIOs and business decision-makers who are seeking to maximize their SharePoint investments.
