Architecture
The entire Aegis system is built upon an SOA model (Service Oriented Architecture). This technology is generally accepted as the state of the art in enterprise software design. All functionality of the system is exposed through documented .NET web services. Most functions actually employ IPC CAMX where applicable. This brings total normalization of system functions, enabling Aegis to evolve and integrate the system rapidly and safely.
The Benefits of Aegis System Architecture

- + Integration
The SOA model enables Aegis to build forward-compatible integrations to other business systems. The interface to the system itself is insulated from Database changes or other structural changes over time by guaranteeing the web services remain intact, perhaps only adding functionality but never removing or modifying that which exists.
- + Real-Time
So many vendors state they have real-time dashboards. In actuality, they have a web page that takes a snapshot of some data in the database and displays it in gauges. Aegis’ architecture employs a method that for the first time insulates the back end database from increasing load as the number of dashboards running increases. It is also truly real-time in that it responds instantly to data changes from the factory.
- + .NET Technology
Aegis utilizes Microsoft .NET technologies throughout the system and for the web services. Such technologies enable Aegis to deliver maximum availability and uptime through use of application pooling and other inherent benefits of .NET.
