` Case Study – Untainted
The Client
Untainted is UK’s highly popular music portal company that tries to support
the new budding musicians of the world. The company believes that there
are a lot of talented musicians that do not get the right kind of exposure
resulting in their music getting lost. Untainted plays an active part in getting
these musicians their share of limelight and appreciation for their chords.
While the idea is highly noble, executing it through the traditional means of
recording labels and distributing them is a highly expensive and time
consuming process. Thus, they turned to the online medium for faster,
wider, and better exposure.
Requirements
Untainted had a very clear vision that they wanted an online platform in
place for the new musicians to post their music and share it with other
members. But this was merely the tip of the iceberg. We realized from the
very start that the kind of system Untainted envisioned had a lot more going
underneath the surface that needed to be understood very clearly. Thus, the
Radix team sat down to analyze the client requirements and break them
down into minute details. At the end of the whole exercise we had the
requirements listed down as follows:
The system had to act as a platform for new and budding artists where
they can post and popularize their music.
The system users should undergo a registration process for
membership which needs to be approved by the site admin.
The users of the site should be able to freely select their favorite
musicians, favorite bands, etc from the site.
The musicians should be able to edit their profile and music directly on
the website.

` Case Study – Untainted
The users of the site should have the ability to form friends
groups or communities.
The registered musicians should be able to set up online stores for
their music.
The solution should inform the users about any performance events or
gigs of the musicians.
The musicians should be able to have a wall wherein their online
friends and fans can post comments and remarks.
The client wanted a place to display advertisements and banners.
The client wanted dynamic control over the content.
Radix Approach
Once the client requirements were listed out the Radix team started working
on a plan on how to approach this project. First and foremost, we studied
the business domain of our client. We undertook a detailed analysis of how
their industry operated, what their business vision was, and how they
envisioned the system to further their business objective. Based on this, we
drew out a detailed development plan to be followed. We identified the
critical areas of development and deployed appropriate resources to these
areas.
The Solution
All our efforts spent on adopting a systematic approach paid off well when
we developed a solution that delivered exactly what the client was looking
for. Our solution features the following functional modules:

Star Features
While the Radix team always endeavors to develop a solution that meets all
the client requirements to the fullest, there are a few special highlights that
enhance the business value of the solution. We term these special highlights
as the star features of the solution. The star features in this case were:
The solution was tested for quick updates at regular intervals during
the development life cycle and before final deployment.
We have deployed CSS to control the appearance of content on the
web page.
The admin can precisely position the layout to specific fonts and styles.
Once the admin updates the content of the solution, the new content
becomes visible to the users directly on their next visit.
