About Ketroute Framework

Welcome to Ketroute Framework

Ketroute Framework is the next-generation development framework designed to streamline and enhance the development of government IT solutions. Built with a robust Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture, Ketroute Framework offers a scalable, secure, and flexible foundation, perfectly suited to meet the unique demands of government agencies and their stakeholders.

 

History of the Ketroute Framework

Ketroute Framework was originally created by Peter Ramokone with a core philosophy of reducing coding effort through its "less coding" approach. This philosophy emphasizes efficiency and productivity by minimizing repetitive tasks and promoting modular, reusable components. The framework adheres to the principles of "Don't Repeat Yourself" (DRY), ensuring that developers write concise and maintainable code without redundancy.

 

In 2010, Ketroute Framework was adopted by Tucksee (PTY) LTD. A Leading Software Development and Consultation House based in Johannesburg, South Africa, marking a significant milestone in its development and adoption within the industry.

 

The framework underwent substantial structural changes with the introduction of version 15 in 2018. This pivotal update introduced support for hybrid service controllers and unlimited interface contexts, enhancing its capabilities to meet the evolving needs of complex government IT solutions. These advancements solidified Ketroute Framework's reputation for robustness, flexibility, and scalability in handling diverse and demanding application environments.

 

Ketroute Framework embraces a "Zero Trust Architecture" approach to security, where no entity, whether inside or outside the network perimeter, is trusted by default. This security model ensures that every access attempt is verified and authenticated, significantly reducing the risk of data breaches and unauthorized access to sensitive government information.

Comprehensive Documentation  

We provide extensive documentation that covers all aspects of Ketroute Framework. From installation guides to detailed API references, our documentation ensures that developers have all the information they need to leverage the full potential of Ketroute Framework.

 

Audit Log Module  

Stay compliant with industry standards and regulations with our powerful audit log module. Ketroute Framework's audit logs provide detailed records of user activities and system changes, making it easier to monitor, review, and audit your applications.

 

AI, NLP, and Machine Learning Integration  

Over the years, we have developed tools and processes that allow us to integrate and adopt different models of Artificial Intelligence (AI), Natural Language Processing (NLP), and Machine Learning (ML) capabilities into the Ketroute Framework. With seamless configurations, these libraries, plug-in, and APIs enable intelligent automation where developers can engage with the Ketroute AI Assist using command-line, Chabot or API to setup necessary components, modules, database tables, defining data models to get real-time support with a primary goal to enforce standards, compliance, enhance efficiency, ensure a consistent structure, and fast-track development.

 

Responsive & Mobile Ready  

Ketroute Framework is designed to be fully responsive and mobile-ready. Web systems developed with Ketroute Framework are accessible from any browser, ensuring that your applications are available anytime, anywhere, on any device. This mobile-readiness is crucial for modern government services that need to be accessible to citizens and officials on the go.

 

Cross-Platform Compatibility  

Our framework supports cross-platform compatibility and deployment, ensuring that your desktop applications are compatible with Windows, Linux, and macOS. This flexibility allows your team to develop and deploy applications across different operating systems, making Ketroute Framework a versatile solution for diverse government IT environments.

 

Geo-Location Support  

Ketroute Framework includes a provision for configuring forms to support geo-location for transactions or recordings where such information is deemed essential. This feature is particularly beneficial for applications requiring location-based data, enhancing accuracy and contextual relevance in government operations.

 

Multi-Sub-Account Management  

The system platform provides the ability for clients to create multiple sub-accounts and self-manage these login accounts. This feature ensures that organizations can efficiently manage user access and roles, improving operational efficiency and security. Businesses can also assign account managers as administrators for their customer accounts, enabling streamlined management and oversight of customer interactions and transactions. This functionality is particularly beneficial for large organizations that require hierarchical account management, ensuring that each sub-account can be managed effectively according to specific needs and roles.

 

Single Sign-On (SSO)  

Ketroute Framework offers a robust Single Sign-On (SSO) feature that allows a single user profile to be used across multiple MDAs (Ministries, Departments, and Agencies). This feature enhances user convenience and security by allowing seamless access to different systems with a single set of credentials. Implementing strong security measures, including MFA, ensures that the access rights of the user profile on the target MDA system are not altered. Additionally, the system incorporates mechanisms for obtaining and managing user consent for data sharing across agencies before activating SSO, ensuring compliance with privacy and data protection regulations. Comprehensive audit and logging mechanisms track all SSO transactions, providing transparency and accountability.

 

Report Builder  

Ketroute Framework includes a powerful Report Builder module, enabling users to create, configure, and manage reports with ease. Key features of the Report Builder include:

•Customizable Reports: Configure reports according to your specific data needs, choose themes, and select the data source and dataset to use.

•Notifications: Receive notifications when your reports are ready, ensuring timely access to important information.

•Scheduling: Schedule reports for periodic generation, providing greater control over report delivery and ensuring that critical information is available when needed.

•User-Friendly Interface: Enjoy a more intuitive user interface that simplifies the report creation process, making it accessible for users of all skill levels.
