Mxi uses modern technology platforms that meet the standards and expectations of forward-looking organizations. To meet the goals of scalability and platform independence, Maintenix® has been built as an "n-tier" system compliant to the Java Enterprise Edition (JEE) specification.
The Maintenix multi-tiered system is made up of these tiers:
User Interface (UI)
The UI tier of Maintenix is made up of all of the components through which user interaction takes place. This end-user interaction is role-based, and takes place through "thin client" Web browser components.
Business Logic
The "n-tier" architecture provides for a separate business logic "layer" that is used for both user transactions and integration with external systems. This separation allows for better performance and scalability.
Database
The final tier is a relational database for both the day-to-day transactional data and for the long-term storage of warehoused data.
Advantages
The architectural foundation of Maintenix is integral to its ability to deliver real advantages and business benefits to the MRO organization including:
- An ability to be scaled to meet the present and future needs of the organization
- Proven reliability to work as a mission-critical business information system
- An ability to integrate the specialist aviation MRO capabilities of Maintenix with other corporate systems
- Internet deployment and the option of third-party Application Service Provider (ASP) software hosting (or "Application Hosting")
- Single point of access to comprehensive functionality to manage internal electronic logbooks; generate external supply-chain demand; notify external flight operations systems; and, generate financial transactions for accounting, project management, and contract management
