Altien announces partnership with IBM & availability of ADM 6.0

I am delighted to announce some major news about the future direction of Altien. Earlier in the year we signed a partnership agreement with IBM and ever since have been busily developing the next version of Altien Document Manager which is fully integrated with IBM WebSphere® Information Integrator Content Edition (IICE) You can see the official announcement here. We will be launching ADM 6.0 at the IBM Information On Demand 2006 conference next week.

By integrating ADM and IICE we have created a unique value proposition. A next-generation enterprise document management application that is independent of any ECM repository. Our customers can now implement a migration path toward a common ECM infrastructure and away from legacy repositories over time and without disrupting their users.

We have also posted a brief screencast showing ADM working across an IBM DB2 Content Manager repository and a FileNet P8 repository.

Now the annoucement is public I hope to have some more time for blogging. Certainly there have been some events in the last few months which are worthy of comment!
