Do you have a product concept and would like to turn it into reality? We can help implement your ideas into a concrete product. United Electronics develops and maintains products for companies, so they focus more on their core business, rather than dealing with the technical aspects of the product. We provide end-to-end solutions, including identifying best-of-breed technologies and frameworks, selection of servers and other network equipment, addressing scalability and availability requirements, figuring out the best deployment configuration as well as hosting and supporting the application. In other words, we do the heavylifting for you.

We consider all aspects when developing products: Do the business rules and workflows need to be externalized for flexibility? What is the future growth in terms of users, data and transactions? What are the performance, scalability and high-availability requirements?

We strive not to over-engineer your products. We believe that the price of complexity is reduced maintainability and performance, so we keep the product architecture and design simple and straightforward. Our design philosophy is guided by the following principles: Apply the OO paradigm. Over the last decade or so, OO has proved its usefulness as a means to break complex business systems into simpler units. Program to interfaces rather than to classes. Layering is important. Layers must be loosely coupled. We have applied the Inversion of Control paradigm in some of the more recent projects to achieve loose coupling.

We do not believe in reinventing the wheel. For every project, we select the most suitable frameworks and components and build from there. Our expertise in open source frameworks include Spring and Struts, O/R mapping tools like Hibernate, Lucene search engine and jBPM workflow engine. Integrating the various components and frameworks into a working system is not an easy task, but that is something we specialize in.

When you create a product, you have to look at ways of reducing not just the development cost, but also the operational, maintenance and future enhancement costs. In many cases, there are reliable open source alternatives to expensive commercial software. Our experience with a wide range of open source alternatives helps us build and operate robust products using such alternatives.
