Available vs Custom Code

CNM Cyber

Available vs Custom Code (hereinafter, the Lectio) is the lesson part of the Soft behind CNM Cloud lesson that introduces its participants to CNM Cloud. This lesson belongs to the Introduction to CNM Cloud session of the CNM Cyber Orientation.

Content

The successor predecessor lectio is How Apps Are Built.

Script

The overwhelming majority of the software solutions that CNM Cloud employs are commercial off-the-shell (COTS).

Periodically, CNM Cyber Team reviews those COTS solutions that are included in CNM Cloud and researches the market. The review encounters the history of bug tickets and identified troubles. The research encounters official websites and professional sources.

If new candidates are identified, they are deployed at CNM Next Server to be tested. Based on the testing results, the Team decides to deploy or not to deploy them as a part of CNM apps.

If no software solution is available on the market, the Team may decide to custom code it. For instance, the software behind the user management system at WorldOpp Middleware is custom coded using PHP programming language.

Any custom-coded solution that CNM Cloud uses is being constantly updated since its development is a living project.

COTS in CNM Apps is the successor lectio.
