According to information as of November 2011, the SuperMag Plus system, along with the previously adopted distributed database architecture, can now use the capabilities of a three-tier architecture. This allows you to move to a single database without partially or completely using distributed databases at the store and warehouse level.
Services and system components can work through the application server, and they are accessed through the web protocol. This makes it possible not only to significantly increase the scalability of the system, but also to add and modify functions and services. The use of a three-tier architecture and a "thin client" will allow you to automate business processes on-line, avoid possible errors and inconsistencies when synchronizing distributed databases. First of all, these features will be of interest to users with reliable and broadband communication channels. If telecommunications capabilities are limited, then users, as before, will be able to use distributed databases and an architecture that ensures the autonomy of retail network facilities in case of poor communication.
SuperMag Plus also provides completely new options for adapting the system to various subject areas and specific users. This flexibility is provided by the creation of specialized user automated workstations (AWS) on the client's instructions. To do this, the presented version of SuperMag Plus has created a new environment for the rapid development of standard subject-oriented and user AWS for specific user tasks. As a result, the necessary flexibility is achieved when implementing a system with non-standard requirements.
Many business processes require specialized AWS implemented in the form of web-applications. Therefore, the presented version of SuperMag Plus allows you to quickly increase functionality, work through ordinary web browsers. So, already in the current version there is a consultant seller's workplace and mobile workplaces using web applications.
