Java “App Server” Abstraction for MSI Division

Worked with the MSI Division of Basis100 to resolve a number of system faults in there WinMorty mortgage origination system. The solution involved building a Java server that utilized a well-defined protocol over TCP/IP to replace a system that used RAS dial-up connections and direct access to an MS Access database. This solution had the benefit of abstracting the client connections, so that the RAS layer and Access database could then be replaced with robust and scalable technology.
