We are currently designing and developing a RIA PLM system created using the Microsoft Silverlight, WCF Web Services and SQL Server platforms.  The benefits of any system built on these platforms and guided by Milyli’s commitment to quality user experience include ease of use, better performance and ease of integration.

RIA’s allow for a better, easier user experience by downloading the user interface code to the client.  Because Silverlight runs in the web browser on the client there is no need for the entire browser or even whole sections of a page to refresh.  Only the data and commands necessary are sent between the client and web server and only the text or data that changes needs to be adjusted client side.  This provides for a more responsive experience.  Our own commitment to high quality design ensures that the application is intuitive when users first pick it up.  We strive to make the computer perform all of the most repetitive tasks in the fewest interactions with the least set up possible.  We are able to accomplish this thanks to Silverlight once again.  Because Silverlight code is compatible with multiple browsers on Windows and Mac, we spend less time writing different versions of code and more time creating a better application.

Rich Internet Applications built on Silverlight and Web Services perform better because the entire user interface is downloaded quickly the first time the application starts.  While using the system, only data is transferred to and from the web server.  Performance is also boosted by Microsoft SQL Server and its ability to integrate closely with the caching mechanisms of ASP.NET which provides efficient data caches that prevent unnecessary trips to the database yet that are immediately responsive to changes in database data.

An application built on a foundation of solid web services allows for ease of integration.  Our application has been designed from the start on top of Windows Communication Foundation web services.  Because our application is built on web services, anyone that wants to integrate with our data store and information processes can utilize the exact same, high quality, secure web services that our application runs on.  WCF is the latest web service platform from Microsoft and was designed to integrate seamlessly with other .NET systems and to operate with the greatest possible convenience from other languages including Java.
