Geddes Group contracted with development partner Personify Design to build a Web services interface to tie Amazon.com's Apache-based platform to Geddes' existing Microsoft Windows–based back-end infrastructure.

International baby photographer and designer Anne Geddes had a Web site, and wanted to add an Amazon.com storefront to increase sales. Unfortunately, the technology used on the two sites was not directly compatible. Geddes Group contracted with development partner Personify Design to build a Web services interface to tie Amazon.com's Apache-based platform to Geddes' existing Microsoft Windows–based back-end infrastructure.

After considering IBM Alphaworks and Systinet WASP, Personify chose to implement the interface with Microsoft Visual C# .NET and the .NET Framework. The product was brought to market in three months, which met Geddes' aggressive schedule, and the interface tested out at over 100 transactions per second.
