The model-driven approach allows you to represent almost any aspect of your enterprise in a standard manner, from a company structure down to the implementation of a single method in a software module. When models grow big, and when many people need to access them, a model repository can come in handy.

A model repository is typically a database-driven data source where models are stored while preserving their semantic properties (a model is not just a BLOB or an XML file, it embeds technical and business logic). Soluta.Net owns the competencies to build and manage model repositories and to provide consultancy services on this important topic.

 

Soluta.Net offers consulting services on Adaptive products.

Our competences on the Metamodel/Model management paved the way to establish a close agreement with Adaptive©: Soluta.Net now represents the Adaptive© professional service for Europe and offers courses on the Adaptive products (see the courses page for details).

Adaptive© is a Model Repository environment, widely applied on: public administration, financial, insurance and industrial domains and others. The areas of application include:
Top-management on the overall organisation analysis as:

  • CPM Corporate performance management
  • GRC Governance Risk Compliance
  • Carbon Emission governance
  • Information Governance
  • Software Engineering
  • IT Governance
  • Business Intelligence and
  • Every rational process/product/system

The Adaptive© meta model can represent processes, assets, resources, products, costs of each entities and any tangible or intangible set of competences using a set of coherent metamodels:

  • UML (Unified Modeling Language)
  • DI (Diagram Interchange)
  • CWM (Common Warehouse Metamodel)
  • KDM (Knowledge Discovery Metamodel)
  • SPEM (Software Process Engineering Metamodel)
  • EDOC CCA (Component Collaboration Architecture)
  • RAS (Reusable Asset Specification)
  • BMM (Business Motivation Metamodel)

Models can represent the AS-IS scenario, and it is also possible to evaluate the impact in the What-If scenario (to realize of the TO-BE scenario) by asking the tool to highlight the differences in the model. Throughout the stages above, the impact analysis emphasizes the overall changes also from the economical perspective.
