Resumen
When a business unit is looking for a software solution to a problem there are several technical solutions to which they can look, including: turnkey solutions, component-based framework solutions and custom development solutions. Turnkey solutions are ready to go "out of the box," often requiring configuration work. Custom development solutions typically involve building most of the major system functionality from scratch. Whereas component-based framework solutions elevate abstractions software engineers use to identify, discuss, solve and implement systems. This section focuses on component-based frameworks; what they look like, how to identify them, model them, build them, extend them, use them and how to apply to e-business solutions. Component-based framework solutions are partial implementations, specifying the nature and way to extend the framework with pluggable components. Designing, building and testing component-based frameworks require considering several things including static models that illustrate component structure, dynamic models that illustrate component collaboration, as well as the technology to implement the component framework
