Transaction Management System
Web application platform centralised transaction management
AbleTech has rebuilt a close client’s web application transaction management platform using Ruby on Rails. It replaces a java/jboss J2EE application, so direct technology comparisons can be made.
The interface follows REST based stateless web architecture style using lightwieght JSON messages, runs faster and has less lines of Ruby code than lines of XML configuration within the JBoss application.
Other improvements made from the old system include upgrading from BNZ Buyline to DPS credit card payment system. The service is very developer friendly – no certified VPN access required here, supports card store and authorisation payment methods (without storing card information locally) – and provides a great web UI to report on transactions processed.
