Processes are how you get things done in your business in order to provide products and services to your customers. It can be said that a business is comprised of a set of internal and customer-facing processes. Good database design means storing all of the necessary information related to those processes.
Each entity that plays a role in your business, whether an employee, vendor, service provider (such as lawyer, accountant or software consultant) or partner, should be represented in your database. Moreover, all of the relationships among those entities should also be represented. Good database design means constructing an efficient set of entities and their relationships.
Of paramount importance in good database design is understanding your business processes. At Activus, we take the time to get to know you and your business processes. That way, we can create for you a database that captures all of the important information you need to effectively "get your arms around" your business.
Perhaps you already have a database. Maybe you've outgrown it. Does it run efficiently? Or is throughput a bit slow? In some cases, the database may just need some fine tuning, while other situations may require a migration to an enterprise dataserver. Let an expert from Activus look under hood and provide you with a complete analysis. Then you can make the most informed decision how to proceed.
" Activus has done a spectacular job meeting time commitments, eliminating high cost overruns and providing a superior product. They also took the time to understand integral parts of a very complex business and develop software that supports non-traditional business flexibility issues. Job well done! "
