Writing new modules and scripts

We offer a complete service for writing new perl applications, modules and scripts. Whether a detailed spec is already in place or there is merely a high-level requirement to be filled we can provide highly-efficient perl-based solutions to your computational problems.

Modifying existing scripts

A very common scenario is to have a working perl application which has been written some time ago but now needs to be extended to include some extra functionality. We can provide a code analysis service or a simple estimate to extend or patch an existing application, provided that the necessary licences are in place of course.

Optimisation

Perl can be a very fast system for many tasks, but there is always room for improvement. If you have a slow-running script which requires some optimisation, please contact us for an estimate.

Upgrading

From time to time a piece of old code reaches the point at which it is no longer economically viable to support. Whether this is a piece of Perl4 (or older!) or a program in another language entirely, we can assist in rewriting and refactoring old code to bring it up to modern standards.

Specific uses of perl

Perl has many uses among which are these specific uses where we think that it is an ideal platform:

  • Dynamic web applications
  • Database interface and abstraction layers
  • Data cleaning, sorting and refactoring (of course)
  • Systems administration

and many more. For requirements in these or other fields get in touch to discover how we can help.
