Database Design, Custom Programming, Web Development
Metroon offers a full line of computer consultation services. We are the new leaders in the technological world of information and intelligence including information technology and its application to business solutions. Our primary business model is flexible and focuses on database design, custom software development, IT consulting, and all web services and website design. We are located in Houston, Texas.
Database Consulting
Software developers such as Microsoft, Oracle, and others are constantly refining their database software products, and they are now more cost-effective, and they provide powerful access to large-scale information and data using client server models where virtually all processing takes place on the server. This makes for a much faster, more robust, and more secure environment for your data. Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, or Sybase database managers are today the most popular and sophisticated client server database programs. MySQL, an open source product, also presents an excellent alternative for web database projects. Even for companies whose data needs are small enough to manage with Microsoft Access, we recommend a model using Access with connection either to SQL Server, or the Microsoft Data Engine (MSDE).
Metroon provides database design and development services in the United States and some countries overseas.
Custom Software
We offer custom software development that follows the principles of RAD (rapid application development) and makes heavy use of object-oriented programming (OOP) techniques, and libraries of re-useable code. We develop programs in all of the standard platforms (e.g., C++, C# (C sharp), VB, Java, and the new .NET platform languages).
It's difficult to compete effectively without the proper tools to manage information. Frequently businesses are unable to harness that information because they do not have the technical expertise to systematically collect it, and selectively analyze the useful parts. Marketing and sales information about clients, prospective clients, competitors, your products, their products, relationships, financing - it's all available, and could be used to build and manage your business.
Using client-server technology, Metroon employs some of the industry’s best experts in database design and database programming. Microsoft SQL Server and Oracle databases are capable of handling literally trillions of pieces of information about your business and its environment, and delivering analyses of that information at lightning speed. We know how to exchange information to and from the internet using that database technology, and present that information in an extremely well-packaged, tailored, focused and detailed report, designed to the meet the needs of management, employees, clients, or vendors.
Designing, building, and managing, a database project is one of our major strengths. We can guide you and your staff through the many phases of your database project:
- Concept
- Design
- Planning
- Data-Modeling
- Interface Design
- Web and Client-Server
- Workflow and User Analysis
- Capacity Strategy
- Implementation
- Migration of Legacy Systems and Data
- Post-Implementation Review
During that time, we will be an integral part of development of the technology that has revolutionized your information and business. Your database (depending on design constraints) can be used to support a broad cross-section of business applications:
- E-Commerce and E-Business
- Client Relationship Management (CRM)
- Sales and Marketing
- Finance and Accounting
- Modeling and Forecasting
- Predictive Analytics
- Quality Control
- Messaging
