9 how is Optix different? Fastest out-of-the-box solution –Implements in days and weeks instead of months –Most systems require no programming –Click and install software Highly integrated –A true product, not merely a toolkit –mindwrap developed its own scanning and imaging interface –mindwrap developed its own workflow software –Every component is fully integrated, third-party tools integrated at the library level and use common system admin tools
10
10 how is Optix different? (cont) User customizable –Most customization via GUI tools, without programming –Index and query interfaces customizable using provided application generator tool –Workflow development tools via graphical route builder (drag-and-drop routing) –Workflow routing slips defined using same tools as index screens
11
11 how is Optix different? (cont) Extendable –Scripting is at the heart of Optix. –Additional functionality added through OLE Automation (Applescript on Mac) –Custom queues and workflow activities make it easy to integrate third-party software and special user interfaces –Workflow can be extended through programming –C and Java APIs to enable developers to create custom interfaces
12
12 how is Optix different? (cont) Manageable –High level of integration allows all functions to run on single server with common administration –System architecture eliminates most desktop administration Scalable –Optix scales from a few users to thousands of users –Intelligent application partitioning allows web, application, and database servers to be on the same system, or different systems –Dynamic licensing frees server resources when not in use
