COM and DNA

At Charteris, we recognise that our clients have large investments in COM and DNA architectures. We can derive further value from their existing investment in these technologies and support them in adopting .NET, if and when it is appropriate, in the most cost effective way.

We have considerable experience in COM and DNA as well as in the .NET Framework.

Charteris is able to independently assess your current technical architecture and advise whether COM, DNA or .NET is the right strategic decision for your company and depending on the outcome can help in the following ways:

  • Provision of COM and DNA experts that can support you for as long as you depend on these technologies.
  • Identification of the right migration strategy when/if you choose to adopt .NET.
  • Implementation of efficient inter-operation between COM/DNA and .NET, recognising that there will likely be a protracted period when both technologies are in use side-by-side.
  • Planning and implementation of migration from previous Microsoft technologies to .NET.

Whatever the strategic choices open to you we will give you pragmatic advice and help you decide what is best for your business whether it be making the best of your current architecture or migrating to technologies such as the .NET Framework. Whether you are considering a strategic or tactical move to the .NET Framework or whether you want to continue to use COM and DNA in the future we can work with you to make sure it is done cost effectively.
