saas

I have written an application that starts with making a WCF call to login. I generated the client code with a service reference. It works fine for clients who have their services installed locally to their network. However, there is a saas environment, as well, where these same services are controlled by the corporate powers that be. In the saas environment, I was informed that the login was failing. Investigating using Fiddler, I found that the service call to login is returning HTML, specifically, the web page listing all the available methods from the .asmx. The saas environment has one

I'm working on a web application that will be a hosted, multi-user solution when it is finished. I'm trying to figure out the best way to handle the database design for my app. Specifically, I need to figure out how to handle multiple, separate accounts. The way I see it, there are a few options: 1) Have one set of database tables. In each table, include a 'user' column or something similar which will map each row to the proper user account. 2) Create a totally separate database for each user. This doesn't seem like a terribly great idea for performance reasons. 3) Create a separate schema for

I am creating a SaaS project with Django. I decided to use django-saas-kit for the user subscriptions and multi-accounts part. Ideally I would like to be able to create a new site for each user and a separate database. Does the sites framework support this? How can it be implemented? Thanks. You should create a "clients" folder, and a subdirectory per client. In each subdirectory, create a site_settings.py file as such: import os.path # import global settings from settings import * # this is barely just the name of the client dir, you might want to use that SITE_NAME = __file__.split('/')[-2]

For personal and university research reasons I am thinking of building a simple CRM using a service oriented architecture. Its meaning is just to explain the architecture itself, not commercial use. I was thinking of implementing a CRM that offers a simple analytics service and customer care (user storing, personal comments, and few other things). The architecture that I'm designing defines: - WebGUI (a client of the other services) - AnalyticsService (a service that receives data, analyzes and collect it) - CustomerCareService (a service that uses RESTful APIs to apply CRUD operations). Each

How do people generate auto_incrementing integers for a particular user in a typical saas application? For example, the invoice numbers for all the invoices for a particular user should be auto_incrementing and start from 1. The rails id field can't be used in this case, as it's shared amongst all the users. Off the top of my head, I could count all the invoices a user has, and then add 1, but does anyone know of any better solution? Typical solution for any relation database could be a table like user_invoice_numbers (user_id int primary key clustered, last_id int) and a stored procedure or a

We sell a Software as a Service with a monthly subscription, I’m trying to figure out if we can provide metadata through Schema.org’s specifications. I have been considering products , but it doesn’t seem to support subscription costs. For products, Google seems to have e-commerce physical object-type stuff in mind. There is also Software applications , but that seems to be made for downloadable software rather than web-apps. What should I use? unor There are different possible perspectives: It’s a SoftwareApplication (or the more specific WebApplication , maybe with browserRequirements ). It

Hi We are working on a project and have decided to go with the multitenant Saas architecture level 4 and the Shared database shared schema approach as shown on this page http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa479086.aspx But we are not able to find the starting point i.e from where to start coding. Is there any starter kit available or any good technical resource. what i find on the internet is just the genaral discussion about saas adv/disadv. This project is in .net technologies Thanks in advance My 2c on the shared schema approach... This is my preferred approach(personal preference) but

I'm writing a SaaS app in C#/ASP.NET, hosted with IIS7. I want to create a personalized subdomain for every customer that signs up, i.e. fred.mydomain.com, bob.mydomain.com, each of which will point to the same app, just with a different skin per customer. How do I create these subdomains programmatically? Use URL Rewrite for IIS7 to map all requests like user.mydomain.com (where user is not www, mail or other existing real subdomains) to mydomain.com/myapp?id=user Then in the script handle whatever theming you need. You do not need to add rule for every user created. Just create one general

Can you advice me with some articles/applications that allows you create SaaS(Software as a Service) application with Python and Django. For the moment the general topics I do not understand are: Do you have one working application for all clients or one app per client How do you manage database access, permissions or different DB for each client Are there any tools that allows you to convert one app to SaaS airtonix one project, this will make maintenance easier. I handle host resolution with middleware in django-ikari. you don't. see #1 I use the following : django-ikari : anchored (sub
