Oracle OpenWorld San Francisco 2006
PALO ALTO and SAN FRANCISCO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--JustSystems, Inc., a leading global enterprise software company, today announced the launch and availability of its flagship product, xfy Enterprise Solution, for Oracle Content Database 10g (Oracle Content DB) in North America and Europe. xfy™ (pronounced ‘x-fie’) enables Oracle Database 10g customers to easily manage and deliver information across multiple reporting sources, dynamically, to end users. The xfy solution’s native XML architecture and Services Oriented Architecture (SOA) capabilities are rooted in the company’s 27 years of experience in developing office productivity and information management solutions for millions of users worldwide.
"XML has gained a lot of attention for its role in driving business flexibility, but dedicated user productivity tools have been few and far between," said James Governor, principal analyst and founder, RedMonk. "With xfy, JustSystems is working to fill that gap."
xfy’s dynamic and flexible XML-based application platform fully supports standardization, integration, and security of business information to help users make sense of complex, disjointed information found across an organization’s infrastructure. The product’s XML architecture and SOA capabilities make it easy for business users to visualize and personalize complex information, and for IT managers to create information-rich applications that are easy to deploy and inexpensive to maintain.
"We frequently face the challenge of integrating marketing information from multiple disparate sources and presenting business insights in new and impactful ways," said Dr. Michel Floyd, CTO & EVP, Knowledge Networks. "xfy provides advanced data integration, application building, and visualization capabilities in an intriguing and innovative platform."
The xfy Enterprise Solution for Oracle Content DB offers Oracle customers advanced business functionality without significant training or programming skills. It allows end users to connect disparate internal and external information silos with two-way information capability, and in a timely and cost-efficient manner. In addition, the product’s highly customizable and visual presentation capability delivers vast amounts of business information in an unlimited number of formats, enabling dynamic decision making and increased business agility.
"The hallmark of JustSystems has been our focus on the end user experience. With over 27 years of technology innovation, we’ve consistently raised the bar on the presentation of information that makes businesses more efficient," said Clinton Stark, VP marketing, JustSystems. "Together with our industry-leading XMetaL product line and the new xfy Enterprise Solution, we now offer customers a broad portfolio of solutions for today’s most demanding information challenges."
Through this release, the company is also making available its xfy Blog Editor, which enables corporations to easily publish and re-use blog information based on the open XML standard. With the xfy Blog Editor, end users, such as customer service analysts, product managers or marketers can add structure to blog information and efficiently repurpose it for their business needs and applications.
