Easy Integration

Autonomy's Intelligent Data Operating Layer enables organizations to seamlessly integrate with other systems across intranets, extranets and the Internet. Founded on a technology that is modular by design and facilitates global distribution, Autonomy has developed a flexible infrastructure that allows optional use of the latest Web Service standards including Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), and Web services Description Language (WSDL) to enable organizations to build innovative e-business solutions. Coupled with full support for J2EE environments and EJB, Autonomy has ensured that the technology can be rolled out in any environment.

ACI API

Autonomy's core infrastructure enables all core modules to intercommunicate with one another delivering the key benefits of using Autonomy's ACI API or Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) enabled servers to facilitate interaction between Applications and Autonomy's Intelligent Data Operating Layer, and allowing simple manipulation of any returned result sets. Communication with the servers is implemented over HTTP using XML and can adhere to SOAP.

The ACI API uses HTTP to allow custom-built applications (for example C, Java, Com or Com+ applications) to communicate with Autonomy ACI Servers.

Creating a world of ubiquitous connectivity between applications, enterprises and across value chains, organizations will be provided with rapid access to information across the network no matter what their application, design or platform environment.
