How is Skyway differentiated from others in the application development space like traditional leaders IBM/Rational, Compuware, CA etc?

Skyway’s offering is differentiated from the leaders of the last generation of software development tools in three key ways: Skyway’s Model Driven Development and Deployment (M3D) platform was built from the ground up as a service oriented platform and is not a re-hashed client/server technology solution. Skyway M3D Platform uses models - rather than hand coding - to build discrete reusable services, composite applications, and rich user interfaces, including much of the business logic. By contrast, the offerings from IBM/Rational and Compuware (as examples) are both model “assisted” and they have had model constructs put on top of their code based frameworks. These modeling constructs have been added ostensibly to make it easier to build software using their tools; however, you still have to drop down into Eclipse to hand code to build the software. Skyway’s M3D platform was architected to be a tightly integrated development and deployment environment rather than cobbled together ...  more
