Project Objectives
Dot Solutions is a simple domain registrar. I was approached by Binary Environments Ltd. to produce a domain registration website that they could promote to their clients. It handles all major domains, and gives Binary better control of their clients domains, simplifying customer support.
My Involvement
I was the primary designer and developer on the project. An initial design concept was proposed by the then president of Binary which I used as a basis of my design. I was asked to use the Tucows OpenSRS domain reseller system for the actual domain registrations. The backend software is written using the OpenSRS SOAP interface with client software I wrote in object oriented PHP5, and payment is handled using the E-Xact transactions system. Since OpenSRS handles all of the record keeping, no data model was necessary.
