NS-BOS: the NetSuite Application Development PlatformThe NetSuite Business Operating System enables you to create and distribute vertical applications built on NetSuite.
 NS-BOS (NetSuite Business Operating System) provides developers, ISVs and VARs a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) application development platform with a complete set of tools to build, integrate and deliver vertical applications on NetSuite.
NS-BOS's SaaS infrastructure eliminates large set-up costs and on-going maintenance. It gives developers access to the NetSuite system and its core business application functionality, as well as NetSuite tools for development (SuiteFlex) and deployment (SuiteBundler). This unique combination of always-on architecture with easy-to-use tool functionality makes turning your vertical industry expertise into fast, cost-effective and repeatable targeted business solutions.
SuiteFlex application development platform
SuiteFlex is your technology platform to customize, extend, test and build vertical applications on NetSuite. SuiteFlex makes NetSuite the world's most customizable and extensible on-demand application service. It delivers unique capabilities not found in any other on-demand solution through its four distinct toolsets:
SuiteBuilder rapid application development
Customize and extend NetSuite with easy-to-use, point-and-click tools. Build your user interface; create custom records and forms that manage application-specific data; and add dashboards, tabs, roles, lists; and more. SuiteBuilder enables rapid application development in the cloud.
SuiteScript programming environment
Build new functions, processes, entire applications—then host them in NetSuite. Built on industry-standard JavaScript, SuiteScript provides a rich programming environment which makes it easy to deploy scripts that seamlessly interact with NetSuite standard and custom processes.
Seamlessly extend NetSuite to legacy systems and third-party vertical applications. SuiteTalk's standards-based Web-service APIs use Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) to enable easy integration with other platforms and applications.
Troubleshoot code or metadata written to run on the NS-BOS platform as you're working. SuiteScript D-Bug is the first real-time, Web-based interactive debugger that enables code validation and testing of third-party applications on the application server against live data.
SuiteBundler application deployment tool
With SuiteBundler, you can package and deliver your solution to other NetSuite customers through NS-BOS. SuiteBundler's innovative technology enables you to productize your industry expertise in vertical solutions—and distribute them in a repeatable, cost-efficient fashion. |
