Don't be fooled by today's software companies who have been around for a number of years with no vision for becoming accessible on the Web. To catch up with today's standards and business requirements, they're simply putting a front-end on their same-old-software package, throwing it online -- and calling it On-Demand, or Web-based. Nothing could be further from the truth. These systems are actually Web-enabled lacking the scalability, speed, agility, cost benefits, business value and vision of a true Web-based, On-Demand system. Conventional application software simply isn't built for the On-Demand model. These same companies have also re-engineered their costs to sell you a subscription or service -- and what you'll get is a much slower, less flexible and more expensive system than a true On-Demand platform like OILspace's, built from the ground up.
OILspace started in 1999 with a vision to streamline complex oil company processes associated with the buying, selling and transporting of crude oil and refined products around the world. We chose a flexible infrastructure and technology platform, along with a development methodology that was considered innovative at the time. Our development team said "it would take us and our clients far into the future, without far-reaching costs."
Now, six years later, our hundreds of clients are reaping the benefits. We combine oil supply chain applications designed specifically for the Web, with a time-slashing Agile Development process, a flexible service-oriented architecture (SOA), and a real-time messaging platform known as an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB). It creates a powerful real-time environment for users.
Industry experts from Gartner to ZapThink agree that the solution for modern companies is a SOA with Web services subscribed to a messaging bus. OILspace was built this way from day one. We concurrently run thousands of session ID's accessing multiple OILspace applications across our single point access, the ESB. This ESB allows for new solutions to be plugged in, incrementally built upon, as you grow.
When we first started, the technology was considered new and untested. Today, it has been adopted across all industries, and is considered a preferred technology by CIOs and CTOs. Leading, stable brands in all industries like telecommunications, banking, retail and manufacturing have embraced this platform including Office Depot, Siemens, Bank One, Aegis Group and Fujitsu to name a few. Our own customers include Hess, ExxonMobil, BASF Chemicals, ConocoPhillips, Chevron, TNK-BP and hundreds more.
