CCE provides software development toolkits for engineering application providers
to access native 3D CAD data in their applications without investing in software
or licenses of the CAD systems that produced the data. Currently, the only way to
achieve this is by licensing expensive royalty-based API's (Application Program
Interface) from CAD software ISVs. Apart from the cost, CAD ISVs, more often than
not, have a stringent partner selection process and do not license API's to potentially
competitive software vendors. This makes CCE's development toolkits an ideal component
technology for 3D CAD access in enterprise applications in a cost-effective and
hassle-free way. CCE uses its own proprietary technology for these development toolkits,
and does not base it on any third-party application/component.
are highly portable object-oriented
C++ API to help create interoperable applications. They could be used for enhancing
the ability of an application to support multiple CAD formats and hence reach out
to a wider customer base, or simply to access CAD data and use in any custom engineering
application. ODX is seasoned and well architected and helps achieve complete CAD
interoperability with very little effort. ODX is very robust and is currently being
used not only internally for CCE products, but also by a number of leading MCAD
software ISVs (Independent Software Vendor). Applications developed using ODX are
independent of any form of CAD software or licensing. More…
is the latest of CCE's innovation
and helps connect Enterprise Applications to CAD data assets. Oceans SDK is a first-of-its-kind
technology that provides access to product data stored in CAD files via a single,
unified C++ API for all major CAD formats. Enterprise applications deployed today
use innovative software architectures such as SaaS to bring the benefits of optimized
and holistic workflow management applications to a wider audience within the extended
enterprise. The same applications, however, are hampered by restrictive architectures
and licensing requirements that prevent them from fully exploiting the CAD data
assets for the benefit of everyone in the product lifecycle. Currently the only
way enterprise applications such as PLM, ERP and MRP, can gain access to CAD-authored
product data is by licensing expensive royalty-based API's from CAD software ISVs.
Oceans SDK provides an easy and non-royalty based solution to all such enterprise
application providers, thereby providing them with a significant edge over competition.
