Our strong creative and strategic analysis skills are complemented by a high level of technical excellence.
We can implement sophisticated and highly functional outcomes for any project utilising our cohesive team of programmers, systems administrators and system architects. We believe that while technical functionality is foremost for any successful web application, it should require the least input of time or learning for either you or your customers, and develop systems to be highly usable and consistent.
We provide end-to-end solutions covering: Custom Application development; Website development; Database development; Content Management; Intranet development; Hosting and deployment; and Integration with currently deployed client software, particularly with regards to providing a web-interface to non-web-enabled systems.
We use a broad range of technologies, enabling the best match to be made to suit a client's budget and requirements for scalability and speed in their project. These range from Perl-based websites to full distributed Java applications. All solutions can utilise our content management systems for client-controlled content updating.
For applications requiring interfaces with proprietary software we provide robust Java solutions that are highly scalable and extensible to meet future needs.
We strive to exceed expectations in customer service, delivery capabilities, and cost effectiveness through reliable process-driven methodologies in systems and product development.
Examples of our technical solutions range from simple customer management systems and e-marketing tools to fully-fledged superannuation database applications and commercial content management systems.
At Future Medium we foster the development of harmonious and reusable technology. This strict emphasis on creating modular solutions allows us to quickly and predictably complete technical solutions on time and on budget.
Our goal is to deliver human-focused solutions using a mix of proprietary and open source software. In collaboration with expert partners such as Squiz.net and Sun Microsystems we are able to extend the competitive advantage of our customers.
We have selected the Java Platform as our standard development base, for the following reasons:
- Cross-platform - Provides an easy migration path between different system, and gives clients more flexibility when it comes to deployment;
- Wide variety of servers available - Java application servers are available from many different companies, including free, open-source ones. Once again this provides deployment and price flexibility, with an upgrade path to more powerful offerings as needs grow; and
- Powerful capabilities - The Java language and environment is ideal for developing systems that are scalable, and able to interact with other systems via web-services etc.
