Over the past 40 years IT has evolved to create a diverse landscape of bespoke and packaged applications in a variety of programming languages, platforms, operating systems and disciplines. More then $1 trillion has been invested in building Information Technology (IT) infrastructure.

By combining our core EZSource product suite, together with a complementary range of solutions and services, we help our customers automate key applications management activities. Synchronized with your source configuration management systems, EZSource contains a full inventory of your applications components in full technical detail. By visualizing the internal application structure, dependencies and relationships, EZ Source is an indispensable tool to support a range of activities across the application lifecycle from project and portfolio management through design, development, testing, support and maintenance It is designed for use by all technical staff as well as having management components for transparency into application metrics.

Automate the analysis of how your applications work. Improve flexibility, reduce complexity and introduce changes seamlessly.

For many organisations, getting to the bottom of how their applications work, interact with each other is the biggest barrier to efficiency in application maintenance and to planning and costing new developments.

EZSource delivers detailed application understanding across multiple platforms and languages and integrates with your existing application lifecycle management tools.

One of the biggest barriers to full understanding of an application landscape is that "you don't know what you don't know", meaning that manual application analysis is both costly and error prone, due to the difficulties in scanning the components and understanding the complex inter-dependencies.

EZSource automates collection and classification of information based on the source code of actual application components and their relationships, allowing precise, user-driven application navigation according to the task in hand. Analysis projects can be built to work on specific focus areas, for example comparing specific code sets across development, test and production or tracing end to end business transactions spanning multiple platforms and languages.

Common activities such as change impact analysis become more accurate, timely and reliable and the subsequent introduction of a complex change becomes seamless as all interdependencies are well managed due to thorough understanding of the underlying components and relationships.

Key to its success is the ability of EZSource to provide a common, consistent set of information to all users involved in the application lifecycle from management through development, testing and support via a single, fully integrated repository.

Based on the understanding gained of your applications portfolio at a detailed technical level, EZSource provides assessment reporting based on industry standard metrics. These include Inventory (counts and categories), Complexity (Cyclomatic, Halstead, Heuristic, Maintainability Index) and a variety of others such as Backfired Function Points, Where Used, Dead Code and Impact Analysis.

Combined with our measurement dashboard a comprehensive picture of the overall health and efficiency of your applications portfolio (or a segment of it) can be built very quickly, focus areas for improvement identified and baselines set against which to subsequently measure tangible gains.

Future portfolio planning decisions (e.g. investments, technology selection, retirement) can also be drastically de-risked and accurately planned based on the extensive information provided.

Applications quality is another area where EZSource supports you in avoiding risk and improving asset efficiency, for example, in identifying opportunities for common services, removing redundant code and supporting technical upgrades.

Release maximum benefit from your applications. Reduce cost and deliver value for money to your business customers.

From the common platform of application understanding and measurement provided by EZSource, you can work entirely in-house or with 3rd party IT companies to prioritise investments, optimise “business as usual” costs of application maintenance and work to a fully leveraged resource model for application development, maintenance and support.

In today's world, application delivery models combining in-house staff with multiple product vendors, systems integrators and outsource partners across organisational and geographic boundaries can often increase risk, cost and complexity whilst decreasing quality, flexibility and leverage.

Fast to deploy and use, EZSource delivers proven business benefits to our customers, who are faced with the real world challenges of delivering "more for less" from their application portfolios.

By providing a common toolkit for cross boundary collaboration, based on common metrics for cost and benefit and a common dashboard for consistent management and decision making, EZSource will help your IT organisation to simplify, improve resource usage (human and technical), reduce delivery risk and raise business confidence in IT applications.
