PRESS RELEASE
OBIAN SUPPORTS ORACLE APPLICATION
SERVER 10G AND GRID COMPUTING
Jupiter Specifically Designed To Take Full Advantage of Oracle Grid Computing Burlington,
MA September 9, 2003. Obian announces today that Jupiter, its integrated document,
business process and content management application, will offer full compatibility with
Oracles Application Server 10g and Database
10g. Jupiter is the only 100% J2EE-compliant Enterprise Information Management system
leveraging all components of Oracles Web Services operating environment.
Jupiter currently scales from laptop to data center. With its existing multi-tier
architecture, Jupiter is capable of supporting thousands of users and managing tens of
millions of documents, said Obian Chief Technology Officer Peter Bohnert.
After we implement the grid computing technologies incorporated in Oracle
Application Server 10g, Jupiter will be able to scale up to support tens of thousands of
users and manage hundreds of millions of documents.
Oracle Application Server 10g will provide our enterprise customers with numerous
advantages, John Logan, Obians President, declared. For example, Jupiter
is a secure enterprise-level repository and custom workspace for the reports generated by
other applications. Oracle 10gs higher level of application
integration will allow our customers to increase the value they can derive from their
existing information assets.
Jupiters architecture was specifically designed to take full advantage of the
functionality included in Oracle Application Servers advanced technology components.
For example, Obian has leveraged Oracle technology in the following key areas:
ˇ Jupiter runs seamlessly with Oracle Portal and can be called by other Oracle portlets
for enterprise application integration;
ˇ Jupiters Development Tool-kit and the integrated Jupiter API allow for fast and
effective application development with Oracles J-Developer platform.
The Jupiter Development Toolkit includes the ability to build online transactions that
access the document management module through the Web interface;
ˇ Unlike most document and content management systems, Obian built an extremely fast Free
Text Retrieval (FTR) capability into Jupiter. Obian did so by designing the single
repository for both documents and Web pages using the indexing, administration and
performance tuning capabilities
Oracle Database provides;
ˇ Jupiter uses Oracle Workflow to provide the business process management functionality
required by customer organizations. Once the root processes are established directly in
Oracle Workflow, individual
users work within Jupiter to launch and manage their business processes.
Obian has added workflow functionality extensions within Jupiter to ensure that it meets
the unique document management applications needs. Jupiters repository for all
content documents, Web pages, images, workflows, audio files, etc. needs to
only use a single instance of the Oracle Database to provide data consistency and trusted
report generation throughout the enterprise.
Obian is the first and only enterprise software company to offer comprehensive
collaboration and issue management technologies allowing senior executives to lead
corporate initiatives while driving strategic vision deep into their organizations.
Using Obian solutions, Global 4000 executives proactively manage and substantially improve
the success rate and ROI of strategic business initiatives.
