Xythos Software has added over twenty new enterprise customers to its client list, growing the total number of licensed users to almost two million, now including the Sudbury, ON Regional Hospital.
The company's adherence to open standards-based design has helped continue to increase its appeal to customers seeking technology flexibility and improved content security. Open standards-based document management solutions have been gaining support from both government and commercial organizations because of their ability to reduce the costs associated with document collaboration -- as well as ease the process of integrating document management functions within existing enterprise applications and portal environments.
Xythos' Java-based design provides benefits in three key areas, the company describes:
-- Unparalleled Flexibility: Xythos customer can choose from a variety of open source and commercial application server, database and storage technologies
-- Improved Content Security: Xythos systems leverage standard authentication and encryption methods and can even help eliminate dangerous email file attachments
-- Easy Customization and Integration: Xythos' open API's, JSR 168 support and comprehensive Java Docs make it the choice of commercial and enterprise developers
Each of Xythos' recently announced product suites now includes a Xythos Developer Studio to further assist Java developers in customizing the new Xythos applications and platform. "Developers continue to express frustration with the complexity of traditional document management systems and are demanding simpler methods to deliver document and file management over the web," observed Ed Miller, CEO of Xythos. "Xythos is responding to this need with a modular, standards-based approach that helps them integrate document collaboration right inside the applications their users already know and use," he added.
In addition to saving developers time and money, Xythos is also improving the security of content as it is exchanged between different parts of the enterprise and different organizations altogether -- helping address growing security problems related to email file attachments. The University of California, Irvine introduced its Xythos-based system named "WebFiles" to address this very challenge.
"For us, it's all about secure collaboration. Faculty rarely conduct research on their own! We consider WebFiles to be a key service that we offer to researchers and staff at the University of California, Irvine. We were able to make the service available to 12,000 faculty, staff and graduate students using out-of-the-box functionality. We rely on WebFiles to preserve and protect our valuable research, enabling us to securely share the fruits of our endeavors with peers at UCI and collaborators worldwide," stated E. Scott Menter, Director of Infrastructure Services for Network and Academic Computing Services at the University.
