System Considerations for Q-Pulse Document Control Software

Q-Pulse is a Windows-based "N-tier" application built on the Microsoft .NET Framework, utilizing Microsoft SQL Server 2000 database technology and integrating with Microsoft Active Directory (AD). See details in the Q-Pulse Technical Overview in pdf format.
  • The N-tier technology enables Q-Pulse to scale easily from the desktop or local area network to the enterprise or web application level.
  • The .NET Framework is the Microsoft development environment that allows different programming languages & libraries to work together seamlessly to create Windows-based applications that are easier to build, manage, deploy, and integrate with other networked systems.
  • SQL Server 2000 is a robust, scaleable relational database management system that offers a variety of administrative tools to ease the burdens of database development, maintenance and administration. Q-Pulse is available in various database options from an embedded Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine to a full enterprise solution on Microsoft's SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition.
  • Windows Active Directory service is the integrated, distributed directory service that is included with the Windows 2003 Server and Windows 2000 Server. By integrating Q-Pulse with user accounts and user groups held in Active Directory, there is no duplication of your network administration efforts and that resources will be freed to address other IT project priorities.
  • Q-Pulse provides the optional ability to authenticate with user passwords held in Active Directory. To the network administrator, this reduces the number of passwords used on the network. To Q-Pulse users, this means that they only need to sign into the network to be able to access the Q-Pulse system.
  • Microsoft Windows 2000 or XP
