Abstract
The architecture provides development tools for the occasional developer to build a substantial portion of an application interface for accessing and interacting with actual data. The lack in knowledge of the occasional developer to complete the project is then supplemented by a development service provider such that experienced developers complete the interface and integrate the interface into the application environment so the occasional developer can use the application to access data for which the interface was developed. The architecture provides tools that are understandable for building in a guided way the framework and the user experience for the application, and then passes on the more complex pieces to IT because coding may be needed or a model should be generated that is scalable for a large number of users, for example. IT then completes the development process and integrates the final solution into the application environment.
