Vital Path Deploys Electronic Document Content Migration Solution At Leading Global Financial Services Firm

Vital Path, the market leader in electronic document content integration and content migration solutions, announces its premier product, PathBuilder, will be deployed at a leading global financial services firm, for content consolidation from a variety of repositories including Microsoft SharePoint, Documentum and Livelink.

The PathBuilder solution will move mission-critical content and meta-data from dozens of legacy content management repositories to the company's Livelink Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system. Content migrations typically involve applications from different vendors often requiring significant transformation and conversion. Organizations are prompted into this type of activity through internal efforts such as cost reduction and compliance; or external actions such as mergers and acquisitions.

"Historically, migrations have been handled by service organizations using an ETL (Extract-Transform-Load) approach," commented Jay Rothe, president of Vital Path. "ETL requires long periods of downtime, is vulnerable to human error and there is often no way to test the content migrations. PathBuilder's superior consolidation-integration product creates a gateway, allowing business rules to guide the migration process and provides essential testing and verification methods."

PathBuilder's award winning out-of-the-box content migration and content integration product is designed specifically for unstructured content such as documents, spreadsheets and emails. PathBuilder helps companies quickly and easily integrate diverse content repositories.

Using a simple interface, PathBuilder can also synchronize and virtualize content, as well as enable federated activities such as searching and in-place records management. Once connected, PathBuilder allows organizations to leverage all of their Enterprise Content Management (ECM) repositories without forcing clients to abandon their original systems and corresponding investments.
