Development of solutions using component-based architectures offers several types of benefits, including application flexibility, component reuse, quality, cost, and speed of delivery. This presentation describes Everware's approach to component provisioning and assembling applications from COTS and custom-developed components. Everware has developed an MDA-like automated tool for generating components using industry best practices and design patterns. A case study using Everware's approach is provided and the resulting metrics show a significant savings in time and cost. (I4)
