Upgrader is a simple Java-based tool that enables applications developers to add software upgrade capability into their applications. An upgrade process typically involves replacing the old version of the binaries with new version of the binaries and performing data upgrades. It may also need to perform changes to the directory structure. The data upgrade outlined above may involve changes to the configuration files and/or database changes if the application uses a database. This tool provides framework using which application developers can keep track of changes to the application. Every time, there is a change in the database schema or configuration files, the application developers can create a "patch" script and add it to the "patch list". The Upgrader tool may be bundled with the application and is typically invoked during the installation/upgrade. When it is invoked, it determines the current patch level of the system, determines the patch scripts that are needed to be executed, sequence the patch scripts and apply them.

I. Rold. (2009)Key Findings
• Outsourcing and services will increase. There is an increased level of interest within
midsize businesses and across a balanced share of vertical markets toward extending
their externally sourced activities in 2009.
• More business managers than IT managers appear to be involved in service sourcing
decision making.
• Outsourcing growth has slowed, but is still there. Almost 60% of surveyed organizations
have indicated that they will outsource more, versus 7% that indicated they will
outsource less.
• Evergreen objectives and challenges dominate the plans. Client organizations are
predominantly looking for cost reduction, seeking access to resources, aligning IT to the
business needs and getting more value from existing investments.
• Interest in and use of services based on alternative delivery models are on the rise.
Europe is becoming a sweet spot for these new offerings through 2009 and 2010.
Recommendation
• Consolidation of traditional providers, the rise of new and industrialized offerings, and
increasing price pressures are affecting everyone. Careful strategy development,
superior execution (operational control and quality assurance) and a strong
understanding of the current market reality are required. Despite the traditional, although
more intense, requirements for prompt cost optimization, better business alignment and
more value for money, IT and business managers will be required to apply more-diligent
approaches to developing sourcing strategies and management capabilities. Midsize
companies and business managers also need to address these issues..
