Best of Breed vs. End-to-End: Solutions for Application Development
Address
Julie Vaishnav jvaishnav@mks.com
One of the most important decisions facing an organization as it prepares to acquire software development tools is the choice between an end-to-end solution versus a best of breed solution.
End-to-end solutions are those offered by vendors who supply all the tools necessary to address the full application lifecycle. Best of breed solutions focus on one or a few elements of the application lifecycle, but integrate with other tools to provide full coverage.
Both approaches have their advantages and disadvantages, but, as this paper will argue, best of breed solutions offer software development teams greater flexibility and better technology at a lower cost-of-ownership. Furthermore, best of breed vendors show an unfailing commitment to innovation and customer responsiveness.
