09/25/2003

Suntail AS, a software development company based in Oslo and London, says it will provide openFabric licences, services and customization to The Morgan Crucible Company, described by Suntail as one of the world's leading specialist engineering companies.

Suntail explains that, “openFabric provides a framework for creating secure, scalable, distributed applications. The entire product range is designed from the ground up to function in a distributed, networked business environment. The openFabric product suite consists of a development environment, server platform and a revolutionary client tool. Using the openFabric framework Suntail can quickly create powerful distributed systems customised to specific business needs.”

Corporate portal requirements vary from company to company, but consistently the decision to invest financial and human resources is connected to productivity, bottom lines and meeting business objectives.

To this end, Suntail says it has designed the solution using openFabric to meet the following requirements from Morgan:

• Knowledge management including sharing, archiving and storage of divisional and enterprise wide documents.



• Collaboration in real-time or near real time, with auditing, archiving and versioning.



• Information sharing in open interactive forums and in private limited access user areas.



• Ease of administration including distributed role based access control.



• High levels of internal and external security including strong encryption of sensitive materials.



• Replication to insure fast and consistent version access to documents and business applications both on and off line.



• Resilience/service availability to develop confidence and increase use in new services.



• Redundancy to build robustness into business processes.



• Training/support to use the services to their fullest potential.

"We are delighted to sign this agreement with Morgan Crucible", says Stephen Lord, Technical Director at Suntail. "We now have the opportunity to work long term with a world-class company, and we are confident that Suntail, together with the technical team at Morgan will build a cutting edge secure content management system for the Morgan group".

Says Chris Armstrong, CTO at Morgan Crucible, "We are more than happy to work with the team at Suntail. We have been engaged in a pilot using Suntail's openFabric over a period of 4 months. The test has been successful in every respect. Suntail's product is interesting to us because it allows the intelligent exchange of information globally and in real time. The openFabric product will help streamline our business processes, not only internally, but also at the customer interface."

Suntail targets customers who require business software and infrastructure solutions tailored for a networked, geographically diverse environment. Markets such as Web Services, Enterprise Application Integration, Content Publishing and others are expected to achieve record growth in the next few years, Suntail points out.
