F5 Selects Day Software's Communique; Web Content Management Suite To Power New Ask F5 Portal
Day Software , a leading provider of global content management and content infrastructure software, recently announced that its Communique; Web Content Management Suite (CQ WCM) was selected by F5 Networks, Inc. , the global leader in application delivery networking, to power the latest version of F5's Ask F5 Portal.
A powerful online knowledge portal created to help customers and partners find answers to their product and support questions quickly and efficiently, Ask F5 conveniently addresses questions about F5's application delivery networking products and services. In search of a solution that would help best facilitate productive information sharing between F5's end users and partners, the company chose Day's Communique; for its content-centric approach and innovative architecture. The first native Java Content Repository standard-compliant enterprise content management (ECM) solution available, Communique; transforms global organizations into virtual enterprises. The solution decouples an application from its underlying repository, and unifies content from any system, regardless of location, language or platform.
"With its focus on application delivery, F5's comprehensive solution helps enterprises ensure that their businesses are always running, and we're pleased that we help the company provide customers with an easy, convenient way to get the most out of their F5 products," said Michael Moppert, CEO and chairman of Day. "Our content infrastructure software is designed with the end-user in mind, and we're glad to be a part of the reason that customers worldwide trust F5 to reliably deliver their applications. Day's products are the perfect complement to an enterprise whose customers demand the highest level of service."
"Day's Communique; provides ECM, global brand management and centralized control, making it an ideal technology choice to power the Ask F5 Knowledge Base," said John Matthews, VP of Information Technology at F5. "Our customers' end-user experience is a top priority, and Communique; empowers us to create, manage and deliver more effective content in less time. We are very pleased with our decision to implement this technology and believe in Day's vision as a company and as a leader in the ECM sector."
Day's technologies allow companies to access their most valuable assets - information about their specific businesses, processes, products, customers and documents, which were previously 'locked' in proprietary repositories. Working with industry leaders such as EMC, IBM, SUN and Oracle, Day initiated and drove industry adoption of the standard for content access, JSR 170. Under the leadership of Day's CTO, David Nuescheler, JSR 283 (version 2.0 of the Content Repository for Java Technology API), has successfully cleared Public Review. The next version of the standard will help to further improve the interoperability of content applications and content repositories.
