 LIMS
System Multi-tier Architecture
In
most legacy and first-generation LIMS systems, the technology and the
business rules components are compiled together and cannot be
separated. Often, custom code is developed to meet dynamically
changing lab and business needs. In parallel, vendors make
modifications to their product code to incorporate new IT technology.
These parallel developments are normally incompatible, so users must
forgo their customized applications if they wish to upgrade to newer
versions of the vendor’s LIMS. Deviation from the vendors’ development
path makes it more difficult to modify business rules. Over time, the
laboratory finds itself using a system that is far behind the latest
technologies, and also falls short of the laboratory’s own
requirements. STARLIMS believes that the long-term
effectiveness and ROI of LIMS solutions can only be improved by using
a single technological platform, which preserves existing business
rules while allowing for ongoing configuration.
 
STARLIMS ensures long-term effectiveness, by using a multi-tier
laboratory management system that partitions
development and maintenance tasks. The new and advanced features
developed by STARLIMS are rapidly integrated, validated
and distributed enterprise-wide, without compromising business rules
or database components. In this way, we help ensure a high level of
technological adoption. Conversely, users modify business rules to
meet evolving requirements, without departing from STARLIMS’s overall
development path. This approach increases adoption of ongoing
upgrades, while bringing annual ownership costs down to the level of
ongoing maintenance costs.
 Cost
Effective LIMS System
STARLIMS represents a new paradigm for LIMS cost/performance. Easier
to implement, validate, certify and maintain than comparable
solutions, it lowers total cost of ownership throughout the LIMS life
cycle.
