Sybase, Inc. announced general availability of its Content Capture Technology built for software companies to embed into their application(s). This technology extracts, aggregates and integrates real-time data, allowing Independent Software Vendors (ISVs) to offer their end-users views of their own and other’s information. Sybase Content Capture Technology is a toolset specifically for software vendors and publishers delivering prepackaged business applications and infrastructure solutions for document management, analytics and custom application development. Sybase’s technology extracts and aggregates traditional structured and unstructured Web information to give end-users views of their information quickly and easily. Rather than physically storing the information, a small blueprint of the information view is stored so that when the actual information is needed, the total content is dynamically reconstituted from the blueprint. www.sybase.com
