Compliance Framework

Accelerating platform adoption becomes easier and more predictable when developers are able to innovate on the latest technologies through a self-service, frictionless framework. Scaling to hundreds or thousands of ISVs also requires platform vendors to automate and scale the way in which support services are delivered to reach a broader cross-section of developers.

SpikeSource Compliance Framework accomplishes both of these goals – providing developers with a positive experience while enabling platform vendors to achieve scalability. How? By replacing one-off compliance tasks with a highly collaborative, standardized workflow.

As developers proceed through a self-service compliance process, they receive technical guidance and valuable insights into their applications. The workflow leads them through standardized steps with predictable outcomes. At each step, Spikesource delivers developers precisely the information necessary to achieve compliance. As the entire process is now automated, platform support resources can focus on accelerating platform/technology adoption.

SpikeSource Compliance Workflow can be easily tailored to support multiple developer initiatives and competencies. This way, each initiative is supported by a workflow enabling ISVs automated access to iterative testing and remediation services that provide solution specific instructions and advice. 

The end result: Developers are better able to adopt the platform and exploit newer technologies while platform vendors minimize service load so that they can significantly expand certification capacity with existing resources. Ultimately, platform vendors derive better and more predictable results from their investment in developer programs, and enable ISVs to more readily innovate on the technology that is at the core of the platform vendor’s strategy to gain marketshare.
