Infor Mongoose
David Heffler
Director Product Development, Mongoose
Rapid Application Development

Contents
• What is Mongoose?
• Solution Overview
• Mongoose in Action – Solution Demo

What is Mongoose?
• Application Development
Framework: Mongoose is Infor's
rapid development framework for
building new and extending legacy
applications.
• Flexible Architecture: Mongoose
can be used to build anything - from
complex ERPs to simple web parts.
• Efficient & Fast: Mongoose is
engineered to scale quickly,
enabling a low cost, unified platform
for all business applications within
an IT footprint.

Why is it fast? How does it work?
Rapid application development
• Wizard-driven features to create tables, IDOs and
base forms.
• Basic functions pre-plumbed.
• No separate development tool; it’s in Mongoose.
• Code can be added as needed using standard
Microsoft languages.
• Minimize code via metadata (Forms, IDOs and AES)
• Behaviors implemented via event-driven architecture
• Code is .Net, built in Visual Studio, managed by the
framework
• Uses MS SQL Server databases
Portals ERPsWeb Parts

Key Business Benefits
• Rapid application development
• Fast installation is simple and flexible
• Easy integration to your existing applications
• Seamless publishing to web and multi-
device enabled
• Cloud enabled for both development and
deployment
• Preserve upgrades while customizing
applications
• ION enabled in core toolset

Introducing Mongoose 10x
• Cloud based
• High productivity development framework
• Infor10x User Experience (beauty,
context, social)
• Loosely coupled via ION
• Browser & mobile form factors
• Hybrid deployment
• Marketplace infrastructure
• ERP starter kit
• Microvertical Accelerator

Contents

ION Enabled in Core Toolset
• Easy integration to both Infor and
non-Infor applications.
• Quickly build new BODs for
enhanced business process
optimization.
• Extend base BODs with scripts
within the toolset.
• BOD automation built into
Mongoose services.
Mongoose

Publishing
• Any form can be presented as a
web page.
• Forms can be a web part within
Infor Ming.le™.
• Forms dynamically adjust layout
for different devices.
Automatic Web Deployment and Multi-Device Enabled

Installing & Deploying
• All form information is in databases, ensuring
a streamlined and straightforward
installation.
• Personalizations, IDO extensions and
upgrades require no deployment step to
release.
• Any application can be moved from on-
premise to cloud, or back.
• Both runtime and development are cloud-
enabled.
• Integrations can be a mix of on-premise and
cloud at the same time.
Simple & Flexible Install, Cloud Enabled Development & Deployment

Customizing
• Framework minimizes amount of coding
required to ensure adaptability.
• Code is replaced by metadata stored in
databases for the forms, IDOs, and AES.
• Changes are kept separate from the
base application and automatically
upgrade using framework tools like
FormSync.
