Web design and development requires a wide range of skills. Organizations cannot afford to have these skills in house. Web design and development requires a combination of Creative, Multimedia, Graphic Design, Interface Design, Web Programming, Database Programming, Network Engineering/Security, Video Production and Animation, and Project Management skills.

Government Agencies and some commercial entities must also consider user accessibility issues (ADA, Section 508 compliance) as well as localization and multilingual content development and maintenance.

Service Oriented Architecture can help organizations respond more quickly and cost effectively to changing market conditions. SOA promotes the reuse of services at the macro level and can help simplify the interconnection and usage of existing IT Legacy Systems. Organizations heavily dependent on legacy system can benefit greatly from the SOA. SOA is not tied to a specific technology. It may be implemented using a wide range of technologies, including SOAP, RPC, DCOM, CORBA, Web Services or WCF. SOA can be implemented using one or more of these protocols. The key concept behind SOA is that each service is independent in that the calling application and the application being called communicate through a defined interface that requires no knowledge of how each service actually performs its tasks. The principle is simple and extremely powerful. The Canton Group has expertise in SOA development and engineering.
