EntropySoft partners with Iron Mountain to offer secure cloud storage and digital archiving

Following the recent release of its Content Hub Appliance, EntropySoft, a specialist of content integration and connectivity, announces a partnership with information management company Iron Mountain. Electronic documents coming from as many as 35 document repositories can now be archived easily to Iron Mountain’s cloud-based storage archive, increasing EntropySoft’s ability to link the enterprise and the cloud.

Iron Mountain provides information management services for helping organizations to realize greater value from their paper and digital records. The company’s solutions for records management, data protection and secure shredding enable customers to protect and manage their information so they can optimize their business and ensure proper recovery, compliance and discovery. Through its Developer Program, Iron Mountain allows third parties and developers to integrate their solutions with its secure cloud archiving platform. This is the first instance of integration between EntropySoft and Iron Mountain.

EntropySoft’s Content Hub Appliance is a single platform that provides out-of-the-box connectivity to ECM systems. In a matter of hours, any customer can connect all its Content Management Systems to Content Hub Appliance and start moving documents to Iron Mountain’s archive. All the affiliates of a company can connect to the same platform and regroup in a single repository all critical corporate information, therefore increasing compliance with regulatory environments and facilitating eDiscovery.

“Companies are looking to leverage the cloud to reduce their information storage costs, and customers of EntropySoft can now do that securely and in a tightly integrated manner,” said Jaimin Patel, director of business development, Iron Mountain. “Iron Mountain has been offering secure cloud storage and archive solutions since 1995. More than just secure storage, though, our cloud solutions enable faster access to information and help organizations to address compliance and regulatory concerns, all while reducing the operational complexities and costs of data storage.”

The partnership between EntropySoft and Iron Mountain highlights EntropySoft’s capacity to solve the main concerns with cloud adoption: security and integration. Content Hub Appliance addresses these issues for documents, as it enables a secure link between the cloud and the enterprise.

“EntropySoft is very pleased with this partnership and integration. It takes only minutes to deploy our software appliance in a virtualized environment, therefore minimizing the efforts usually needed to connect enterprise and cloud repositories. Now companies of all sizes can archive simply all documents, reducing the costs and risks associated with storing and protecting important documents,” said Nicolas Maquaire, EntropySoft CEO.

Large organizations use EntropySoft products for managing advanced document processes. Software vendors use EntropySoft products to facilitate information access. Content Hub Appliance is the secure link between the Enterprise and the Cloud for all companies.

Content Hub Functionality
The virtual appliance can be downloaded from EntropySoft’s support site. It only takes minimal installation and configuration for the virtual machine to be ready to start operating in the customer environment. In a few minutes, the Appliance can be connected to all the company’s document repositories. A user-friendly web interface allows authorised company staff to search, browse and work with all connected repositories. Then a transfer “bridge” connects the chosen repositories to Iron Mountain’s digital archive. The bridge can also implement the customer’s specific requirements. Once the bridge is configured, the document archiving is effective.

Customers can select from different archiving options. Documents can be archived manually, on a scheduled basis or in real-time, For example, if this last option is chosen, as soon as a document is created in the document management system, it is instantaneously moved or copied to Iron Mountain’s digital archive.

The Iron Mountain cloud archive becomes a centralizing point for all the information stored in the various content silos of the company. This allows the Legal, IT and Compliance departments to cost-effectively manage in one place all relevant electronically-stored information.

Pricing and Availability
Using Content Hub Appliance is very cost-effective compared to specific developments usually associated with linking an archiving platform to content silos. The service is offered by EntropySoft on a monthly subscription basis and a pay-as-you-use model that includes content transfer and digital archiving.

EntropySoft Cited As A Strong Performer in Enterprise Content Integration report By Independent Research Firm

EntropySoft was among the select companies that Forrester Research Inc. mentioned in its October 7, 2010 “Take A Process View Toward Enterprise Content Integration” report. In this evaluation, EntropySoft was mentioned as one of the “specialized ECI companies”

Forrester Research concluded that “in some cases, synchronization just saves money” and mentioned “EntropySoft’s ECI product to synchronize certain folders […] and avoid license costs”. Furthermore, Forrester Research took the example of “one large New York bank [that] used the Content ETL product from EntropySoft” and “This greatly simplified the user experience and the UI development”.

As repertory synchronization is becoming more frequent as a content integration method, Forrester Research chose EntropySoft customer to illustrate the benefits of synchronization, saying: “One large bank uses EntropySoft to synchronize in real-time the documents created in SharePoint with IBM FileNet. Users work in their preferred environment while documents are securely synchronized with the corporate repository. This synchronization approach avoids use of Web Parts and is relatively simple to deploy. »

“We are extremely pleased to be included in a report by Forrester Research,” said Nicolas Maquaire, EntropySoft CEO. “We feel this reflects our success in being at the forefront of innovation for content integration. Our new module for real-time synchronization of content repositories is a giant step forward for companies trying to solve their integration problems. Being able to move in real-time SharePoint-created content to Documentum is really helping companies with their archive, records management, or eDiscovery efforts”.

Content ETL is specifically designed to Extract, Transfer and Load documents to and from connected Enterprise repositories. It can handle the most advanced document transfers, while safekeeping all metadata. It is used for migration, archiving, records management and document distribution.

Thanks to the Track Repository Changes feature of the EntropySoft connectors, Content ETL offers a way to synchronize two repositories in real-time. The synchronization effectively removes the barriers surrounding the content repositories by synchronizing their content. Documents, metadata and permissions are automatically updated.

The synchronization process can be done across the firewall to synchronize distant heterogeneous repositories in different locations or companies. Documents can be exchanged with maximum speed, security and traceability. This process can also be applied to cloud repositories. Content ETL can also synchronize external content silos with internal applications.

Content ETL is possibly the most versatile product on the market to manage all unstructured data transfers. Thanks to its connectivity to 40 content silos and its powerful development studio, Content ETL handles all content transfer processes in the extended enterprise.

All major Enterprise Content Management Systems are present in EntropySoft’s portfolio: Microsoft SharePoint, EMC Documentum Content Server, Interwoven TeamSite, Alfresco and more. All connectors have been fully tested on large implementations in critical business projects.

EntropySoft releases a new IBM Lotus Web Content Management connector

EntropySoft, the global leader for Enterprise connectivity, released today an IBM Lotus Web Content Management connector. By making this connector available, EntropySoft is increasing again its unrivalled interoperability capacities and the attractiveness of its product offer.

The Lotus Web Content Management connector is able to connect to multiple content libraries, has read/write capacities and supports all item types: sites, site areas, contents, content components, library components, taxonomies, categories, presentation templates, authoring templates and workflows.

Using the connector, any third-party product or line-of-business application can retrieve, create, delete, and update all above items, as well as create new versions, lock/unlock items and search in the repository using the EntropySoft SQL language. The retrieval of users, groups and permissions is also fully supported.

Furthermore, this connector also implements the EntropySoft “repository changes” feature that enables the connector to detect and report all additions and updates made to the Lotus Web Content Management repository.

With this new connector, EntropySoft extends its family of Web Content Management connectors which already includes the Vignette and Interwoven Teamsite connectors. This is also an addition to EntropySoft’s growing number of IBM connectors. Software vendors, IT Services companies and large organizations can use the EntropySoft IBM connector family to seamlessly integrate with a large number of IBM content repositories.

“For the past five years, we have been continuously increasing the number of connectors that we have, effectively increasing interoperability between Document repositories” said Nicolas Maquaire, CEO and co-founder of EntropySoft. “By adding yet another enterprise connector to our list, we are getting closer to our corporate mission: connecting applications to information."

The IBM Lotus Web Content Management connector is designed to be easily integrated in third-party applications and exposes the same API as the 35 other EntropySoft connectors. It can also be used in conjunction with EntropySoft’s other products, Content Hub and Content ETL. Therefore, any transfer of content to and from IBM Lotus Web Content Management has never been so easy.

EntropySoft is the world’s leading connector supplier. It has more than 35 read/write enterprise connectors for unstructured data, the largest connectivity offer on the market. The extensive support of features and the number of connectors available make EntropySoft technology perfect OEM material for many software industries. In the last 18 months, EntropySoft signed more than 20 OEM contracts with some of the largest global software companies. EntropySoft partners also benefit from in-depth expertise on the same content-centric systems, so as to facilitate the proof-of-concepts and roll-out.

EntropySoft supports CMIS, Kerberos and offers a new user experience

EntropySoft, the global leader for Content Management Interoperability, today released a new version of its Content Hub. The Content Hub can be connected to more than 35 content repository types and offers a centralized access point to all documents, as well as cross-repositories features.

For a simpler user-experience, and for the first time in the data-integration market, content transfers can be managed in a web interface, with no technical skills required.
For better interoperability, the content hub is now CMIS-compatible and can work with the latest Web Services standards.
For tighter security management, the content hub is fully compatible with Kerberos.

A unique differentiator for EntropySoft’s Content Hub is that its web interface can be used by everyone in a company to manage complex transfers with no technical skills. This is a major improvement that fits well in today’s digital proliferation and increased content fragmentation. In a few clicks, a user can do a federated search and specify where the documents have to be transferred. There are no longer complex parameters to set and no more complicated mapping to develop. These requirements are taken into consideration beforehand, when building the content transfer bridges. A major improvement is that the content bridges linking two repositories are dynamic.

Therefore, it is now possible to have business units managing on their own the content transfers in the extended enterprise, including transfers to and from the cloud. This is also true for Records Management and archiving. Thanks to the help of content transfer bridges, permissions are replicated, metadata are automatically mapped and there is full-traceability for all transfer of documents.

Additionally, EntropySoft customers will benefit from CMIS-compliance by all EntropySoft software. CMIS is the new Content Management Interoperability Standard backed by ECM software vendors. CMIS is planned to receive its final approval in April 2010, but already EntropySoft is complying with the new market standard. The 35+ read-write connectors that are at the heart of the Content Hub are also CMIS-compatible, effectively normalizing the access to the most popular content-centric applications. The Content Hub is also implementing Web Services Security, the flexible and feature-rich extension to SOAP for applying security to Web services, as well as MTOM, a method of efficiently sending binary data to and from Web services.

EntropySoft releases Standalone Content ETL for Cloud integration

Paris, October 30, 2009 - EntropySoft, specialist of the ECI market (Enterprise Content Integration), is releasing a standalone version of its Content ETL product for unstructured data. Standalone Content ETL is specifically designed for SaaS companies that want to simplify cloud integration. By releasing this version of Content ETL, EntropySoft is reinforcing its position as one of the main suppliers of cloud integration products for unstructured data.

The development of Software as a Service (SaaS) means that more and more companies work with document repositories that are no longer managed “in-house”. Using external document repositories is the fastest way to deliver document-based solutions without the pain of deploying and maintaining internally complex architectures. Additionally, a cloud strategy is very common when mergers and acquisitions happen: organizations with different IT architectures need to put their resources in common as fast as possible.

External document repositories increase content fragmentation and the need to exchange securely and easily documents over the firewall. The use of cloud repositories must be initiated in conjunction with a strategy to have easy transfers between cloud and corporate repositories.

EntropySoft's Standalone Content ETL is specifically designed to be an ideal product for such transfers.

In all companies, most common practice is sending an e-mail with an attachment when sharing information inside or outside of the company. It is common to first download a document from a content-centric application and mail it. The receiving party uploads and saves in its own repository of choice.
This common practice highlights the dangers of not managing company-wide content transfers. Taking the document out of its initial repository comes with major risks regarding permissions, lifecycle management and mail server overload. A protected document extracted from its initial repository becomes a non-protected document. The complete history of the document is left behind or lost. Knowledge Management becomes impossible.

Content ETL is the best product in its category to manage cross-repository document lifecycle. It can manage real time, on-demand or on-schedule transfers between more than 30 applications, without losing permissions and history.

Applications can be fundamentally different, especially with regards to permissions, metadata models or users and groups directories. Content ETL is deploying “bridges” between repositories. The role of the bridges is first to map the different models (permissions, metadata, users and groups…) and then manage the actual transfer.

Thanks to EntropySoft’s state-of-the-art connectors the bridges can be deployed between more than 30 enterprise content repositories including Microsoft SharePoint, Documentum, Google DOCS, IBM FileNet, Opentext Livelink, Alfresco and many other.

If requirements include data cleansing, de-duplication or rendering, Content ETL includes a large selection of pre-programmed actions that can easily be added in the content bridge. Adding the required features is very easy, since it is done by dragging and dropping a new stage in the graphical representation of the bridge.

Standalone Content ETL also has the ability to dynamically track changes in a repository and deliver a list of added, updated and deleted documents. Changes to content, permissions and metadata are taken into account on an immediate basis. This is a vital feature for all companies who want to have an accurate view of their content and take real-time actions such as immediate Records Management to minimize critical data loss risk.

Standalone Content ETL comes with two scheduling options for transferring documents: pre-programmed transfers on a regular basis or real-time immediate transfers.

Standalone Content ETL is an all-in-one version of Content ETL. It combines an embedded Content Federation server with content ETL so as to simplify product download and deployment.

Customers deploying Standalone Content ETL can, at any time, upgrade their deployment by adding a separate EntropySoft Content Federation Server. The full architecture gives customers a third scheduling option: the ability to manage on-demand transfers with Content ETL web.

By using a pre-defined content transfer bridge, SaaS companies can now offer their customers a downloadable package that can be easily deployed, so as to seamlessly integrate any corporate content repository with their online service, while preserving permissions and delivering full traceability.


Standalone Content ETL’s immediate benefits are easier content transfers between repositories, better information life-cycle control and stronger compliance with rules and regulations.

EntropySoft releases a new Documentum DFS connector

Paris, November 18, 2009 - EntropySoft, a specialist in the Enterprise Content Integration (ECI) market, today announced the release of a new Documentum DFS connector. By making available a new version of the Documentum connector, EntropySoft is increasing again its unrivalled interoperability capacities and the attractiveness of its product offer.

EntropySoft already had a Documentum DFC connector in its product offer. Connecting to the Documentum repository implied calling on the document broker, then accessing the document in the content server. This makes it difficult to use in a firewall-protected network environment Also, DFC are supported on a limited set of operating systems.

EntropySoft’s Documentum DFS connector is a simpler way to access Documentum content via web-services. This actually simplifies the network architecture and facilitates content accessibility for all platforms and appliances.

EntropySoft’s overall connectivity strategy is to make available several connectors for the same enterprise applications, so as to offer different architectural options to its customers. This is for example the case for SharePoint, Exchange and FileNet, for which different connectivity architectures are available.

“This new connector is part of the latest release of our connectors’ portfolio which includes significant improvements across all our connector line of product.” said Raphael Jean, CTO and co-founder of EntropySoft. ”For some applications, we have multiple connectors, so as to offer our customers the architectural options best-suited to their market. This Documentum DFS connector was also the first step towards building our new Documentum CenterStage connector."

EntropySoft’s Documentum DFS connector enables read and write access to content stored in the Documentum repository. It supports searching for documents and covers most of the underlying features of the software. It also includes EntropySoft’s latest content management intelligence feature: the track repository changes feature.

The connector can track changes in a repository and deliver a list of added, updated and deleted documents. Changes to content, permissions and metadata are taken into account on an immediate basis. This is a vital feature for all companies who want to have an accurate view of their content and take real-time actions such as immediate Records Management to minimize critical data loss risk and optimize compliance with regulatory environments.

The Documentum DFS connector is specifically built for the Services Oriented Architecture (SOA) / web-services pairing. The network architecture is therefore simplified. On the client-side, only a few jar files have to be put in the class path, making the deployments extremely easy. There are no more possible complications involving going across firewalls.

EntropySoft is one of the world leaders for connectivity. It has more than 30 read/write enterprise connectors for unstructured data, possibly the biggest portfolio in the market. The extensive support of features and the size of the connector portfolio make this technology perfect OEM material for many software industries. The state-of-the-art connectors help customers focus on their differentiators, allowing them to concentrate on their core business while EntropySoft takes care of the connectivity.
