October 24, 2008 – (HOSTSEARCH.COM) – Inmagic (http://www.inmagic.com) has chosen SAVVIS for Social Knowledge Network Hosting for its industry-leading social knowledge management platform, it was reported recently. Inmagic Presto, and Inmagic Integrated Library System (ILS) Inmagic Genie are now available through a cloud-based service hosted by SAVVIS.
“Companies, government agencies and leading not-for-profit organizations today want robust and secure environments when hosting their applications on the Internet,” explained Inmagic’s President and CEO, Mr. Paul Puzzanghera. “At Inmagic, we strive to stay at the forefront of the social knowledge management industry, while offering our customers highly secure, high-performance, and cost-effective special library and social knowledge network deployment options. Together with SAVVIS, we’re making this a reality for our customers through cloud-based hosted environments that provide the performance, flexibility, and security required for the new generation of knowledge management.”
Presto is a new, socialized version of Inmagic’s popular knowledge repository and the industry’s first true social knowledge management platform. Genie is the company’s Web-based integrated library system (ILS) for Inmagic® DB/Text—a specialized database optimized for text retrieval that lets users build networked and standalone textbases to manage information. Whether hosted internally at a customer’s data center or hosted in the cloud by Inmagic and SAVVIS, Presto provides both managed and searchable interfaces to internal and external data. This unifies structured and unstructured content—including documents, images, audio, video, Web sites, blogs, RSS feeds, and more—to help organizations integrate vetted (top-down) information with social (bottom-up) content that captures the collective “wisdom of the community.” However, hosting Presto in the cloud provides additional benefits for businesses and their IT organizations:
Established in 1983, Inmagic has helped companies rapidly capture, organize, share, manage, and exploit their collective wisdom. Over 5,000 companies in 100 countries use Inmagic’s Presto, Genie, and DB/Text to forge social knowledge networks that connect their people and information to gain unprecedented insight into customers, markets, competitors, research, and intellectual property.
