PROMETHEAN TECHNOLOGIES, INC.

Papers

We believe that part of our job is to help our customers (and potential customers) to become more educated consumers of information technology services. Clients need to be informed of the issues regarding technologies they are purchasing so that they can make intelligent choices and participate in the development process. The approach where we wave a magic wand and produce a software system will never meet the needs of the organization and cannot be cost-effective in the long-term.

To aid our clients in becoming educated consumers without needing to become technology experts themselves, we have planned a set of papers which will highlight the information needed by organizations to make intelligent decisions when purchasing and participating in systems development. We will start posting these papers soon, so check back for more information.

The first paper, currently begin written, will be a "Guide to Web Application Technologies", which will summarize the components web application systems, the technogy and vendor choices for each component, and some of the advantages, disadvantages, and cost considerations for each choice.
