Cloud-Enabled Domain-Based Software Development

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Software Engineering in the Era of Cloud Computing

Part of the book series: Computer Communications and Networks ((CCN))

Abstract

A cloud-based software development framework is presented that does not require programmer capabilities. The development starts with a graphical modelling of the process model, defining the top-level flow for the application. Such a flow coordinates the functional units that are components or services linked to the process again through graphical means such as drag and drop. Variability affects all processes and functional constituents, being the principal specification requires for the application under development. The idea has been partially implemented in a commercial setting and is in its assessment phase. This framework needs to be domain-specific for successful deployment of user ideas without programming-level input. As a platform, the suggested environment allows the setting up of different development environments for different domains. A user community can construct new domains by defining reference architectures, process models and other assets for the application developers. Consequently, there is a possibility of a market place shaping up where such assets can be offered and consumed, subject to an administration for security and optionally commercial purposes. Open, free or paid marketplaces can be created based on administrative policies.
