Cake Solutions Limited

Why Cake?

Cake is recognised as the foremost expert in Spring and JEE application development and support services in the UK – that’s quite a bold statement.

We rapidly turn your business rules into a business application

Cake excels in designing applications that cope with changes. Good design extends your applications’ life span. We follow and set the industry’s best practices in object and aspect oriented programming. This minimises project risk by making the application’s code clean and easy to understand by any good application developer. To deliver a high-quality application on time and on budget, you will need support of an application framework. A good framework will allow you to concentrate on business-specific code.

Focus on the Spring Framework – proven to minimise risk, maximise pace

Cake recognised the value in the Spring Framework from its conception. We have successfully delivered enterprise applications for clients including UK Trade and Investment, National Union of Student Services, QFI Consulting and the Job Search Group. Over the last 5 years of our involvement, Spring Framework became part of the Spring Portfolio, which now includes Spring.NET, Spring Integration, Spring Extensions and many other projects.
