Architecture

UpTime is developed based on the foundation that open standards for communication, data exchange and integration is used. UpTime uses a component based architecture on top of the Microsoft .NET Framework enabling communication, data exchange and integration tasks to work seamlessly within IT environments.

Based on standard and common technologies, UpTime delivers a comprehensive set of platform building blocks – Core, Content, Processes, Interfaces, Configurations, Framework and Integrations. All these building blocks use a unified data model for all content types.

The data model is based on a unique object relational model. Every data structure representing content, users, workflows, lifecycles, and others is stored as an object in the data model. Each content object consists of properties (also known as metadata or attributes) stored in the data model to enable high-speed queries or filtering and access to content assets.

UpTime - One Platform

Organizations benefit from the flexibility of a single release cycle, code base and audit trail for all content types. UpTime delivers a comprehensive set of funtions, business processes and integration possibilities toghether with a unified data model.

	Traditional systems - Multiple data sources and types
	UpTime - One data source and type

Security

UpTime is designed to meet high performance requirements and high data security requirements. Data connectors implemented in the UpTime platform are designed specifically for the designated storage media, for example the data connector towards Oracle implements Oracle Call Interface (OCI) for optimal performance for the communication between clients and server.

Search and Filtering

UpTime implements an open, flexible search and filtering architecture ensuring high scalability and performance. UpTime search and filtering technology gives users full-featured search and filtering functionality, greater flexibility, and more accurate access to information.

Scalability

UpTime provides a completely scalable content infrastructure, developed as a result of years of experience within the most demanding customer environments and requirements.

The architecture can easily handle the high volume of users and efficiently manage huge amounts of objects encountered in applications managing XML components as well as the large sizes of rich media objects.

Global Deployment

Content applications based on the UpTime platform can be deployed anywhere around the world and enable content to be created, stored and published in a wide variety of languages.

UpTime enables companies to interface information in their own languages creating a critical success factor for expansion and acceleration of profability.

Standards

The UpTime platform uses XML as the key bearer of information, both within the platform and outside the platform.

Using XML, which is a language and software platform independent W3C recommendation, ensures that the information stored within the platform is open and not “tied” to specific software and also that information easily can be transferred back and forward to external systems.
