DATABASE

Information Technology is essentially, technology that processes, utilizes, stores, manipulates, generates "Information". Therefore, at the base of any application development lays the database, the essential foundation of that application. At Icreon, database design and development is a significant part of the software development process since it is not only time consuming, it is also expensive to develop and maintain clean databases to nourish the application. Keeping with the trend and popularity of relational databases, Icreon designs database solutions that are cost effective and extendable. We maintain databases for our clients long after application deployment. Our database developers are certified industry experts and the database development process is done in accordance with client requirements, cost optimization and market trends.

Amongst others, Icreon has vast experience in handling Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 which sits in perfectly with other Microsoft technologies, especially Microsoft .NET. We have been successfully developing applications using Microsoft SQL Server 2000 and we also have expertise in porting applications from Microsoft SQL Server 2000 to latest versions including Microsoft SQL Server 2008.

The Microsoft SQL Server database engine is a highly popular data processing engine that ensures data security and availability in applications demanding rapid data manipulation and multiple data retrievals. Recognizing this feature, Icreon utilizes Microsoft SQL Server extensively for increased throughput.

Information coming from any database ultimately serves its rightful purpose when it is easily understandable by the end user. In this regard, simplicity of data reports is crucial for the success of any data-driven application. The database developers in Icreon, thus, rely on the powerful reporting capability offered by the Microsoft SQL Server Reporting. Microsoft SQL Server Reporting combines the strong data processing power of Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Windows Server and Microsoft Office System application to generate both traditional paper-based reports as well as interactive web based reports to aid business strategy development and other sundry official reporting. Microsoft SQL Server Reporting supports report development (report authoring), report management, delivery of reports and ensures multi-level security of reports.

Icreon also uses MySQL for .NET applications, however, our real achievement as far as database technology goes is that we have been able to assist our clients to transition from one database engine to another, e.g. Oracle to MySQL and vice - versa with ease. Database porting is a complicated task as it involves re-designing the database system while safeguarding the existing database schemas and we are proud to inform that at Icreon, database experts have mastered this task with panache. With such a variety of database-related services on offer, you are guaranteed a solution that sets you up to reach your goal.
