A New Approachto Structured Data

Binary Studio builds a visual data modeling tool for NoSQL databases as a highly

performant desktop application for Windows, Mac and Linux.

Binary Studio Case-Study for Hackolade 2

Hackolade is a revolutionary data modeling tool that introduces traditional database design concepts to NoSQL databases based on JSON Documents. It is developed by IntegrIT SA/NV, an IT strategy consulting firm and Independent Software Vendor from Belgium.

With Hackolade, users are able to create and maintain visual data models that can be exported as MongoDB schema validation scripts. Other key features include the automatic generation of human-readable documentation and reverse engineering of existing MongoDB databases. The application is targeted at data analysts, solution architects, developers and anyone interested in a clear understanding of their data structures.

About Our Client

Binary Studio Case-Study for Hackolade 3

Faced with limited resources and a tight deadline, IntegrIT SA/NV was looking for a partner who could reliably handle the implementation of Hackolade with limited supervision. Due to the highly complex nature of the project, we also had to demonstrate our deep understanding of the underlying technologies.

As a certified MongoDB partner, Binary Studio was chosen after a POC phase during which we proved our technical excellence, solid project managementskills and efficient communication with the customer.

◊ Implementation of a complex, highly performant desktop application for Windows, macOS and Linux, based on latest web technologies (React and Electron)

◊ Implementation of a rich user interface for visual modeling tools compliant with JSON Schema

◊ Integrations for different version of MongoDB, including support for connections using advanced authentication mechanisms (LDAP, Kerberos, etc.)

Our Involvement

“Simply take a look at the end result, the Hackolade application.
