Content management vendor Interwoven this week launched new versions of its platform and content server with a focus on improving business usability.
Interwoven 6 introduces a new customization framework, dubbed the ContentServices UI Toolkit, which is designed to enable customized user interfaces. The release also includes a Web services-based integration toolkit via the Interwoven ContentServices SDK 2.0. The toolkit allows quick and flexible integration with business applications, according to Interwoven officials in Sunnyvale, Calif.
Addressing specific business needs, Interwoven 6 also includes offerings aimed at business functions such as sales, services, marketing, and IT. Based on Web services standards, the set of solutions include a Digital Brand Management offering powered by MediaBin; Sales Excellence portals via integration with portals from IBM, BEA, SAP, Plumtree, Sun, and Oracle; and a Global Web Content Management offering for supporting hundreds of Web properties in multiple locations and languages.
Meanwhile, Version 6.0 of the TeamSite content server aims to give business users more control over content via the user-friendly ContentCenter interface.
One of the key challenges with enterprise content management is making the system easily accessible to business users and subject matter experts, according to Karen Aumen, director of product management at Interwoven.
The idea is to "put at a user's fingertips all the things they need as a business user without having to learn content management concepts," Aumen said. "[You] still have all benefits of content management, but some of the complexity is masked from the user."
The ContentCenter framework includes ContentCenter Standard, an interface designed for business users featuring customizable, portal style content management components that allow users to easily add or modify content.
The ContentCenter Professional is a power user interface containing advanced features such as branching, workflow, virtualization, versioning, security, and tool integration.
Other elements of TeamSite 6.0 include a FormsPublisher templating interface and native support for IBM and BEA application servers.
