SANTA ANA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 19, 2001-- StarGate Software Development Kit Adapts Team Collaboration To Each Company's Unique Business Processes
Starbase Corporation SBAS, the leading provider of collaboration products for the creation and management of integrated code and content eBusiness applications, today announced a dramatic rise in the last 6 months in the number of organizations using the StarGate Software Development Kit (SDK) to provide solutions tailored specifically to their organizational needs.
Among those organizations using the StarGate SDK to customize their StarTeam implementation are AG Communications, AIG, AppForge, Artificial Life, Bluestone Software, Click2Learn.com, Concrete, Inc., Hard Rock Cafe, Internet Security Systems, Mediatrix and Sequoia Software.
"We recognize that standard, off the shelf solutions don't fit all customers' development needs," stated Lydia Patterson, vice president, Starbase Products Group. "The complex nature of today's eBusiness environment means that our solutions sometimes need to mesh with products and processes from a variety of other sources, StarTeam's open architecture enables that high level of integration.
"StarTeam was developed as an open environment to facilitate customization to each unique business," stated William R. Stow III, CEO and president of Starbase. "In addition to the high level of integration available with StarTeam, we introduced the StarGate SDK to enable open access to the StarTeam repository and implementation of customized development solutions. Older, more established companies require a higher level of customization to accommodate the multiple products in use within their IT organizations, both off the shelf and homegrown applications. Working at the request of customers and utilizing the StarGate SDK, StarTeam implementation experts in our Professional Services Group are developing custom solutions that enhance our customers' existing development initiatives and extend the benefits of StarTeam across the enterprise."
