The Microsoft Insurance Value Chain Architecture Framework (IVCAF) 1.0 contains tools, libraries and workflows for building and integrating applications and services using Windows and .NET in common insurance scenarios.
IVCAF is the offspring of Microsoft's integration labs, launched earlier this year on the company's Redmond campus for the design and development of workflows. The architecture, announced Tuesday and to be launched later this month, comes as major platform providers increasingly churn out sets of workflows serving as blue prints for how developers and integration staff can build software and servies spanning multiples applications and back-office data sources.
