Clay Tablet Technologies Partners With Language Weaver

Clay Tablet Technologies has integrated its products with the automated translation technologies of Language Weaver. The two companies have formed a strategic product integration alliance and are now jointly pursuing opportunities together. Clay Tablet’s Rosetta Gateway, Web Content Management System (WCMS) and Trans-Port corporate translation portal products allow customers to quickly send documents, or portions of documents, to translation. When translated content returns, it’s automatically inserted back where it belongs on a company’s web site, fileservers, databases or other repositories. Traditionally, Clay Tablet’s systems have integrated with translation service providers and the tools they use. Now, Clay Tablet’s systems can also integrate directly with Language Weaver’s statistical machine translation software, or SMTS. Language Weaver’s SMTS “learns” language translations by identifying patterns and relationships within previously translated or parallel texts. Language Weaver uses statistical algorithms to align the text and assess the correlation of words and phrases. , http://www.Clay-Tablet.com

Stellent Launches Universal Records Management

Stellent, Inc. (Nasdaq:STEL) announced the launch of Stellent Universal Records Management, a new application built on a distributed architecture that enables companies to apply records and retention policies in a consistent, legally defensible way across the enterprise. Stellent Universal Records Management allows organizations to define, manage and execute records and retention management policies for all enterprise content from a single application. The system is a complete, Department of Defense (DoD) 5015.2- and 4-compliant records management application that performs both electronic and physical records management. In addition to managing the records customers choose to store in its built-in repository, Stellent Universal Records Management uses an agent architecture to enforce records management and retention policies and schedules in applications and repositories throughout an organization. This “in-place” functionality enables companies to leave content in its native location rather than moving it to a central repository for records and retention management; apply rules directly to content where it resides; and manage the disposition of all content, not merely the content explicitly declared as records. Agents also send information back to the Stellent server, enabling it to maintain an up-to-date catalog of all critical enterprise content. This server also facilitates legal discovery activities and applies litigation holds to relevant content. The company also is partnering with solution providers to develop agents that apply records and retention management policies and litigation holds to content residing within their applications. The individual applications will continue to perform their functions but will do so in ways consistent with enterprise policies. The first such agents Stellent will release are for Symantec Enterprise Vault and Microsoft SharePoint Server, as well as Windows, Unix and Linux file servers. The Stellent Universal Records Management base application is priced at $100,000 USD. Agents for in-place management range from $10,000 to $50,000. http://www.stellent.com
