European Digital Music Downloads - Wholesale!
CodeFab and WireHose were selected to help architect and implement a huge digital media project for Phonofile DK. The Phonofile music download platform, based on WebObjects and the WireHose frameworks, and offers a tailored digital music and e-commerce solution allowing any website, retailer, consumer brand company, or service provider to offer digital music products. The shop is an ala Carte based standard download shop system or a SOAP based API enabling customers to build their own shops.
CodeFab and Gary Teter from WireHose were primarily responsible for the core data modeling and the architecture of the core business logic and display frameworks. We built the rules based product pricing engine, the e-commerce infrastructure, the interface to the Digital Rights Managements system and the SOAP web services api. We were assisted for a time by Chuck Hill and Sacha Mailais from Global Villiage. The deal was closed by Lori Cone of Bulldog Beach who also helped manage the project. The project was started in May 2005 from scratch and opened the first portals in September 2005.
Here are some of the sites implemented with the platform we developed. These sites all use a common backend / database / repository and are only a sampling of the dozen+ custom portals currently in production using this infrastructure:

 (a site built using Flash. Uziing is the Scandinavian Toys-R-Us and they wanted a “toy like” user interface.) |
sorry the sites are all in Danish and Swedish…
