Complex things are explained through the familiar.
Explaining the Cricket platform
The all too familiar cricket platform can be classified as below.
Data
The cricket platform is wellknown to all. There are various websites like cricinfo.com, cricsheet.org, starsports , ESPN ,ICC etc. The platforms have been collecting data about players , teams and matches since many years . The statistics about which is displayed on the screens for every match.
Dashboards
Imagine a cricket match on TV without the dashboards !
The dashboards display the statistics about the team , the players , realtime match scores and updates . A name for it is Role-based dashboards.
Decision Services
Thus, statistics plays an important role in cricket too.
Problems of Real world J2EE
Using J2EE with EJBs its a complex task to build such an all too familiar platform. Many software companies have built such dedicated platforms for Mining , Logistics , Travel etc. in crude ways. Repeating the wheel of gathering resources , project design and execution.
A scalable platform using Data and Algorithms
When everyone is building almost similar type of projects . Why not provide readily available resources which can be used repeatedly. Hence a ready to use platform without the constraints of performance viz, algorithm complexity, compute power, storage and networking was thought upon. Libraries implementing familiar analytics which can be a quickfix whereever necessary. Data from multiple sources that can be accessed seamlessly without any bottlenecks. Realtime Dashboards linking visualizations with data and decision making algorithms . Another advantage for such a platform being that even not too skilled and experienced employees too can build great projects in a short amount of time.

How I transformed the J2EE architecture into a Data and Algorithms/Services architecture.
Thus was born The Stratagem Innovation Platform©.
