Our Software Developers love Grails
Among software developers Grails is very popular. UWS Groovy, Grails Developers have also other reasons to use this relatively new technology for enterprise software projects. Similar to companies in the manufacturing industry, also software companies are in heavy competition and therefor must constantly increase productivity.
An increase in productivity during software development can usually be achieved with a faster development process, cost reduction or improving software quality. Classically productivity measures can be named with time, cost and quality.
UWS customers achieve such productivity improvements by using UWS Groovy, Grails Developers for their enterprise software projects. Software product companies can also raise productivity by using Grails.

What is Grails and Groovy?
Grails is a software framework based on the Java platform, adhering to Java EE and using the Groovy programming / scripting language. The Grails framework was designed for creating custom Web applications at high productivity (saving time, costs, increasing quality). Inspired by Ruby on Rails, Grails uses coding paradigms convention over configuration and don't repeat yourself. Convention over configuration means that a software developer only needs to specify unconventional aspects of the application and for example the file structure plus the code itself define the configuration of the Grails application. Giving attention to the Don't Repeat Yourself paradigm means that repetitive code is avoided in the application. Grails also uses best practices from the Java EE framework, including agile development, Web Services and Unit Testing.
Unlike Ruby on Rails, Grails builds on several well-established software frameworks, and combines their functionality via Groovy. These frameworks include Java Enterprise Edition (Java EE, JEE), Spring, Hibernate and Quartz. Grails combines the speed of scripting languages with the stability and security of Java and is therefore ideally suited for enterprise use.
Benefits of Grails in software development
The use of Grails as a framework for software development has positive effects on productivity of software development and direct plus indirect benefits such as:
- Cost savings,
- rapid development cycles,
- high software quality.
With Grails, a sophisticated rich web application can be developed within weeks instead of month compared to an orthodox java project. These shorter development cycles lead to cost savings. The use of standards, best practices and above mentioned development paradigms can significantly improve quality of an enterprise application. Also a connection with external enterprise software (eg. SAP) can be established in all directions via services.
Grails Developers from UWS
UWS Grails Developers are specialized in software development with the Grails framework and have already performed many enterprise Grails projects. Our Grails developers have been studying the Grails framework since the early release 0.1 in 2006. The experience gained in this environment are diverse and profound.
