Polar: getting a grip on your IT architecture
How do you maintain an overview of the quality of your technical (sub)systems or components within your software development activities? With Polar – Polteq Living Architecture, you get a (web) application that provides this complete overview. In doing so, you take back control over the quality of the software architecture. You gain insight into the current status of the (sub)systems and components within your software development activities.
Today, many organizations are embracing new digital technologies and are in the midst of a digital transition to be faster, more accurate, more customer-centric, and less expensive. Thus, this so-called “Digital Transformation” brings us tremendous opportunities and possibilities, but also makes organizations increasingly dependent on the quality of these digital applications. In particular, the interdependence and thus complexity of underlying software architectures is rapidly increasing over the past few years and negatively impacts the final product quality.
In short, where digital transformation helps accelerate and improve service delivery, it makes the underlying IT landscape or software architecture opaque and complex, and organizations risk losing control over quality.
The Polteq solution: Polar – Polteq Living Architecture
How do you know which of these (sub)systems or components are working well and where things are going wrong in your software development process? And how can you understand this in an easy way? Digital technologies such as Cloud, APIs, Micro Services and specific point solutions require a clear structure and a real-time overview of the coherence between all collaborating components. With emerging technologies such as “Infrastructure as Code (IaC),” this complexity in software architecture is also becoming increasingly dynamic, or “alive”.
Polar offers the possibility of real-time:
- Creation of visual representations of your organization’s software architecture
- Addition of test results and functional flow descriptions to your visualizations, providing comprehensive insight into the behavior of the software (architecture)
- Collaboration with your team members and stakeholders so everyone has the same view and any change is immediately visible to all
So with Polar, you can make real-time decisions about quality and regain control of your software architecture.
