The React web framework helps us to deploy fixes and new features faster, exploit modern browser capabilities, and maintain our applications. Cloud-based big data processing technologies allow us to scale our data ingest routines and accommodate ever-growing data streams.
We've implemented more independent services in our application architecture to speed deployment of fixes and new features, take advantage of more efficient cloud-based hosting resources, and promote overall site resiliency.
Billing contacts for your organization now have the option to pay invoices and track billing history online.
"Edelweiss+ is an invaluable resource, and I appreciate accessing digital galleys before books are published so I can make the most informed decisions for our library."
