ModelDriven.org Announces the Availability of a new Open Source Project: ModelPro. Model Driven Solutions to Provide Support

ModelPro Realizes the Model Driven Architecture® Vision of Provisioning Executable Software Solutions from Business-centric Architectures; the First Plug-in Cartridge Supports OMG's® SoaML Standard

Vienna, VA, 25 March 2009 - ModelDriven.org (a Division of Data Access Technologies, Inc.) announces a new Open Source project - ModelPro. ModelPro realizes the Model Driven Architecture® (MDA®) vision of provisioning executable software solutions from business-centric architectures. SoaML (Based on the OMG standard) is the first plugin provisioning cartridge for ModelPro which automates the design and development of Service Oriented Architectures, initially on Java Platforms. With SoaML & ModelPro enterprise class service oriented architectures can be up and running quickly and efficiently - ready to integrate new and existing capabilities into coherent solutions based on the enterprise requirements, services and processes.
 
Model Driven Solutions (a Division of Data Access Technologies, Inc.) is organized to provide design, implementation and ongoing support for ModelPro, it's current plug-in cartridge for SoaML and other plug-in cartridges as they are developed.

ModelPro is based on industry standards and open platforms so that solutions are portable across technologies and never locking in to a specific vendor or technology. ModelPro's high-level and business focused models are used as part of the "source code" of the application to generate and/or dynamically execute business requirements. SoaML uses a profile of the Unified Modeling Language® (UML®) and a provisioning cartridge to produce executable systems in a variety of technologies. The MDA approach used by ModelPro allows the same high-level models to be used as source code for multiple technologies.

"ModelPro isn't just about technology - it is about solutions and executable domain models, the 'source code' of a model driven application", said Cory Casanave, President and CEO of ModelDriven Solutions and Founder of ModelDriven.org. "As part of the ModelPro environment and community we will be providing OpenSource domain models that help to jump start the development of business solutions", continued Mr. Casanave.

ModelPro is available at: www.modeldriven.org
