The Bank Transformation Toolkit application development product can provide
cost savings at the earliest stages of development planning and all the way
to deployment. Here are some of the ways that the toolkit reduces development
costs:
- Less reliance on high-level programming skills
- From back-end connectors to user interface building blocks, the toolkit
provides components that are easy to understand and use. This increases the
size of the developer pool and reduces training costs.
- Reduced development efforts by a rich set of development tools
- Bank Transformation Toolkit provides a rich set of development tools that
can help developers build BTT transaction rapidly. These tools also helps
to shorten the development cycle.
- Write once and deploy on several platforms
- A toolkit-based application is portable across several platforms. Instead
of a costly "from-the-ground-up" development effort for each target platform,
you define the application just once and then manage the deployment to any
of the supported platforms.
- Faster application development with fewer developers
- The quicker an application can be developed the lower the cost. The toolkit's
pre-built components reduce the person-hours needed to complete an application.
- Improved development team communication
- The Rational® Application Developer provides team development
environment. A common repository for the development products keeps the
entire team synchronized and up-to-date. This avoids costly duplication of
effort and rework.
