Connectors

"Any Software that has "open document" / "save document" in its menu can benefit from our portfolio of read/write connectors to work with a large array of content silos!"

Integrate your software with all DMS

Content fragmentation brings at least the following three challenges for a software company:
- connecting to content repositories
- having expertise on content repositories
- supporting over time the different versions of content repositories
  EntropySoft Connectors
EntropySoft, a pioneer of interoperability and a specialist for connectivity solutions, has market-tested products to handle all content fragmentation aspects. EntropySoft is offering a large selection of connectors for the most popular content-centric systems.

All connectors are exposing a common API and therefore providing a normalized access to the various content repositories. One technology only is needed to access and work with the 40 supported applications. The API is simple, intuitive and fully documented. For increased interoperability, different technologies can be used to work with the connectors: The EntropySoft Web Services, CMIS (Web Services and REST implementations), Java, java remote and .Net.

EntropySoft connectors are stand-alone libraries (jar files or .dll files). They are designed to be out-of-the-box OEM components.

The connectors can be used to read, write, update metadata, change permissions, lock / unlock documents, check in / check out etc… They implement the main features of the underlying applications.
EntropySoft connectors also offer the ground-breaking Repository Changes feature. The connectors now have the ability to track changes to the repository and deliver a list of added, updated and deleted documents since the last request. This is a critical feature for any application that needs to be aware of the latest changes of content or permission in a content silo. Any change to a repository is automatically recorded and a list of changes can be retrieved dynamically.

Enterprise Search companies use this feature to manage index update. Instead of having to manage complex queries, EntropySoft connectors track and list automatically the changes in the repositories. This accelerates modified or created items being taken into consideration. Beyond the Search Industry, all software products can benefit from this feature to manage document changes in real-time. EntropySoft uses this feature as the foundation of its synchronization technology.

EntropySoft connectors are robust and performance-oriented. They are already used in hundreds of large implementations in different contexts by world-class companies, handling high-volume business-critical operations.

EntropySoft connectors are becoming the market’s reference for best connectivity in all the content-centric software markets.

Understanding and integrating EntropySoft technology is a fast process, usually taking only a few days. By integrating EntropySoft connectors to their own products, Software companies acquire immediate connectivity to additional content-centric applications, increasing the number of repositories they can work with. They can concentrate on their core product differentiators, leaving all access-content aspects and developments to EntropySoft’s connectors’ factory.

By signing a partnership with EntropySoft, a software company not only gets access to the largest connectors’ portfolio on the market but also benefits from unparalleled expertise on content repositories provided by one of the few market specialists.

EntropySoft brings Content Management Intelligence to its customers.
