iseemedia ImageServer 5XE delivers dynamic, interactive image content across the networked enterprise to anywhere, at any size, on any desktop or mobile device, from a single-source .

Graphics and multimedia content are staples for enterprise web, multimedia and print content. Image-centric websites and applications are a requirement for many organizations. For example, without images online shopping would be nearly impossible; online news articles would be colorless; online training and service manuals difficult to understand; and online cultural sites would be lifeless and unpopular.

Despite the importance of images, the unique problems associated with image content creation and management have been neglected by the overall ecosystem of web-related software and services - until now. iseemedia, with its history of leadership in enterprise image management, is focusing its IS5XE ImageServer on image content workflow automation and integration.

As organizations enhance the imagery of their websites, the integration of image creation, storage and distribution into the overall content workflow is rapidly becoming a critical component in the enterprise content management strategy.

IS5XE provides a robust single-source, interactive imaging solution with advanced image creation, automation and image management tools to simplify and enhance enterprise image workflow and delivery.

IS5XE is a single-source, dynamic and interactive image server platform that integrates image creation, security, management and distribution across the enterprise. IS5XE is fully extensible using and extending document properties; taking advantage of the HTTP infrastructure for such functions as authentication, encryption, firewall and proxy navigation; and enables pluggable data storage for most SQL and XML compliant data storage.

IS5XE addresses issues such as image and metadata management, image quality, image detail and image distribution (the need to display on disparate viewing devices, PC, Notebook, PDA, Smart Phone and utilize low bandwidth). With IS5XE all imaging information can be managed from a single source and because of IS5E’s compliance with WebDAV and XML, image management can now be integrated into the content workflow across an organization, across multiple divisions, linking partners, suppliers, customers – everyone.

IS5XE integrates interactive images into the enterprise content workflow through Web Services API and a library of ImageServer specific API’s. Web Services compliance allows for close integration with application and portal servers and additionally a library of API’s is available to web developers for enterprise content integration. For example, images used in the enterprise for documentation, training, marketing, sales and web can be delivered from a single source and managed through existing content management applications such as Documentum, Interwoven, Tridion R5, RedDot, etc.

iseemedia's ImageServer 5XE automates the creation, presentation, and distribution of images, illustrations, photos, rich interactive media and document images for the Internet, Intranet and Wireless networks. Defined as a type of workflow automation, content management, and content delivery system, most firms can quickly deploy the server and generate a return on investment. The iseemedia ImageServer plays an important role in the automation of every aspect of rich media content delivery.
