Architecture

The architecture and technology choices behind DocFinity create a powerful, flexible ECM and BPM suite that is reliable, easy to administer, and scalable to varied enterprise needs.

DocFinity has been designed around the most contemporary and reliable server architecture, comprised of Java, J2EE, and Web services. J2EE is the most widely used server technology for running enterprise applications.

With J2EE, DocFinity can be a cross-platform enterprise solution, offering the flexibility of Windows or Linux. DocFinity can scale to the needs of an enterprise with the capacity to use application server clustering, load-balancing, and failover for performance and reliability.

DocFinity supports two servers that implement the J2EE standard:

• JBoss: The most widely used J2EE server, JBoss is bundled with the DocFinity application, creating one simple installation. Because DocFinity automatically installs and configures its own J2EE application server, organizations do not need inhouse J2EE expertise. This makes DocFinity a wise and convenient choice for organizations with limited IT staff. And since JBoss is open source, DocFinity can keep costs lower for customers.


• WebSphere: An upcoming release of DocFinity will offer compatibility with the IBM Websphere Application Server in order to support the many organizations already using this enterprise server.

With JBoss and WebSphere, DocFinity covers the most widely used application servers on the market, making it an efficient choice for many firms with existing technologies in place. As administrators know, enterprise systems never retire; DocFinity is built on the solid foundation of a proven, industry-standard framework. It represents a wise, long-term investment in broadly used technologies that will be supported well into the future.

The J2EE application server framework contains all of the DocFinity components and handles all of the communication with both the database and the repository. This means that there is one simple installation, and that administration and configuration are streamlined and occur in one central place:

DocFinity offers unparalleled performance. It can run on various operating systems, and offers ample choices with respect to databases.
