Development
If you need more than an out-of-the-box COTS solution, ChalkLabs can do it. With over 10 years of experience creating Unix systems modules and packages, stand-alone applications, web applications, portals, intranets, web applications, Java desktop and web-based tools, software frameworks, APIS, data visualization and data analytics tools, we build it cheaper, faster, and with higher-quality than the competition. We also know how to integrate these tools with information management solutions and internal or external databases to give you the total package. Everything is developed here in the United States.
Information Visualization
Our personnel have both participated in the writing of NSF and NIH grants, as well as winning awards for the software they developed to perform information visualization. ChalkLabs has two of the preeminent information visualization designers in the United States and consults with two others.
Custom Applications
Need to build a custom application to solve a specific problem or take a COTS or OpenSource platform and modify it? Don't know where to start? ChalkLabs can help. We have developed many custom solutions for our clients, most often starting with the modification or migration of an existing COTS solution to fit their needs.
Web Development
ChalkLabs personnel have experience working on large-scale web sites. Our iterative development methodology and philosophy enable us to produce quick results that you can see and change on a bi-monthly basis. Don't like the direction development is going or need to incorporate a new feature ... change it. No longer are you locked into six-month or 12 month engagements.
Database
SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQLite, DB2 ... ChalkLabs deals with large databases on a daily basis. We have particular expertise in database optimization and data integration for large-scale, disparate data. Data mining is also a specific solution we offer to our customers.
Custom API & Software Frameworks
.NET, JNI, Eclipse RCP, OSGI, BlazeDS, Cairngorm, Symfony, and Spring, among others, are all frameworks we use or have used to create custom software solutions. We have a strong background in using these frameworks, as well as creating custom APIs.
