Open Text Corporation, the largest independent provider of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) software, announced an expanded Web Content Management (WCM) strategy which includes the integration of RedDot Solutions' software with Open Text's Livelink ECM - Web Content Management Server.
The integration will create a comprehensive offering that ties WCM into a customer's broader ECM strategy to improve business processes, reduce costs and manage compliance.
RedDot's software will now be integrated with the ECM functionality in Open Text's Livelink ECM suite, including document management, records management, business process management and collaboration.
Livelink ECM - Web Content Management Server will also enhance RedDot with powerful content server capabilities, including advanced clustering, which can scale globally and offer tight integration with leading enterprise application servers, such as SAP NetWeaver, IBM WebSphere, BEA WebLogic and Oracle 10g. The solution also supports content integration with standard back-office ERP applications.
The first phase of integration, says the company, will include the ability to access and publish content maintained in Open Text's broader Livelink ECM suite using RedDot. The second aims for a complete, single server platform with enterprise scale clustering and distribution, and simplified server configuration.
"This strategy will fuel RedDot's success across the globe and reinforces our position as a leader in Web-centric ECM," said Daniel Kraft, Chief Operations Officer, RedDot Solutions. "We are excited to include new functionality with our products and to provide the best solutions to leverage content through the Web in a way that will improve customers' business processes and provide an advantage in the marketplace."
