Process Cache Enhancement

Development

Our development team, has make some changes to AccelSee process caching mechanism.

Now AccelSee (v0.1.22) smart enough to determine if a file need to be processed further or can be taken from cache based on file content. AccelSee content detection algorithm, can detect if a same file was located in different repository.

Case Scenario

For example a.pdf is a file that located (duplicated) in two repository and can be accessed in two URL:

  • repository://repository1/a.pdf
  • repository://repository2/a.pdf

New version of AccelSee can detect that two URL has same content, therefore only one processing need to be done for those URL.

New Process Cache Leveling

In AccelSee 0.1.22, cache level has been simplified to 2 levels: Aggressive and Normal.

Aggressive cache allows AccelSee to aggressively use cached result without considering file content (has been changed or not), while in Normal level, AccelSee will consider file content changes.

Sharepoint Integration Sneak Peek

Development

AccelSee now has 2 new UI integration, one webpart (StaticDocView) and one custom action (ViewOnline).

Both UI integration are tested for MOSS 2007, and will be tested (and adjusted) against WSS3, and SPS 2010.

StaticDocView

Webpart that allows you to embed any document (static linked) to any SharePoint pages, you can specify the URL of document that you want to embed in this webpart, and AccelSee will fetch/process that document for you. Virtually you can put any document that stored in any AccelSee repository, this includes, Windows file system/shared drive, ftp/ftps/sftp/scp server, documentum repository or sharepoint sites.

AccelSee Static DocView WebPart

You can easily put watermark/other security option based on logged SharePoint user since this webpart support personalization.

View Online Action

This ECB (Edit Control Block) custom action gives user another option to view documents in Document List in web browser, your user will have access to AccelSee viewer directly from your SharePoint portal, gives them capability to view page by page (for slower network connection), document audit tracking, and also document annotation capability.

Sharepoint Integration

Blog,Development

AccelSee now has Sharepoint integration that utilize Sharepoint on web services. Built as repository service, this integration will allow AccelSee to retrieve & store content from any Sharepoint repositories.

Tested on Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server, this repository service was expected to be working on:

  • Windows Sharepoint Server 3
  • Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server
  • Sharepoint Foundation 2010
  • Microsoft Sharepoint 2010

Our engineering team will be working on Sharepoint UI interface shortly, to provide Sharepoint users seamless integration with AccelSee.
