1 Data Sheet Iterwove WorkSite Server with Cachig Improve Performace, Simplify Disaster Recovery Plaig, ad Reduce Owership Costs The Geographic Divide I today s eviromet of mergers ad acquisitios, globalizatio, ad expasio, projects are o loger completed withi oe office, but rather by teams staffed across offices ad eve time zoes. Ufortuately, most documet maagemet implemetatios were desiged to store cotet locally ad to be accessed by users i oe office, ot for iter-office collaboratio. As a result, remote users typically experiece slow access to cotet ad must uderstad server topology i order to locate cotet ot i their local repository. Slow WAN access is also oe of the mai obstacles prevetig compaies from migratig their distributed architectures to cetralized data models, despite sigificat cost ad cotiuity beefits. To achieve the greatest possible productivity from globally distributed teams ad realistically address disaster recovery eeds, compaies must achieve geographic trasparecy, whereby users perceive o differece i either performace or coveiece betwee remote documets accessed via the WAN ad documets accessed o their Local Area Network (LAN). Iterwove WorkSite Server with Cachig The WorkSite Server with Cachig is a ext-geeratio server that helps Customers Parters Network EXTRANET Suppliers distributed teams ad remote users access cotet as easily as if it were stored i their local office. The server provides LAN-like performace over the WAN as follows: whe a user opes ad edits a documet, that cotet is served from the local cache. Whe the documet is closed, the server actually uploads the updated documet to the remote fileserver behid the scees ad without iterruptio or delay to the user. This process sigificatly improves performace ad saves the badwidth costs icurred by dowloadig a documet from the WAN every time it is requested. Eablig Data Cetralizatio Network INTRANET By speedig access to remote cotet, WorkSite Server with Cachig eables Sa Fracisco New York Flexible, distributed, multi-tier architecture clearly separates the data, busiess logic ad presetatio layers. Lodo compaies to move to a more cost effective ad safe cetralized deploymet model without sacrificig performace. Cetralizatio ca lower cost of owership both by reducig redudat admiistrative ad hardware costs i each office ad by simplifyig disaster recovery iitiatives. Additioally, aggregatig all data i a sigle data ceter expedites the deploymet of itraet ad extraet sites. For compaies choosig ot to cetralize, the cachig server ca be deployed i a distributed eviromet to improve access to eterprise cotet.

2 Key Features Iclude: Cotet Cache Files from remote or cetralized fileservers ca be cached locally to deliver faster access. The system automatically checks to make sure that the cache has the latest copy of a documet before sedig it to the user. If the documet is the most curret versio, it will be served up. If ot the latest versio, the server will brig dow the curret versio from the remote fileserver, add it to the cache ad serve it to the user. This miimizes traffic over the WAN, coservig badwidth ad improvig performace for the user. Quick Check-I Users do ot have to wait for documets to be uploaded to a cetral or remote file server o File Close or Check-i. Documets are first quickly copied to the cache, ad later moved to the cetral fileserver without disruptio to the user, thereby improvig productivity. Remote Moitorig ad Cache Maagemet Deep itegratio with remote moitorig ad maagemet tools eables a system admiistrator to easily track ad aalyze cache performace remotely ad tue the cache for optimal performace. API s allowig admiistrators to pre-fill the cache with relevat documets further simplify cache maagemet. Robust Server Architecture Delivers Security, Performace ad Low Cost of Owership All WorkSite applicatios are powered by a ope, secure, eterprise-class platform that scales to hadle millios of documets ad te of thousads of geographically distributed users. Built o a highly flexible, distributed, multi-tier architecture, WorkSite supports distributed repositories, built-i fault tolerace, load balacig ad clusterig. Comprehesive admiistratio tools itegrate with LDAP, NDS ad ADS servers, makig it easy to admiister. WorkSite ca be deployed out-of-the-box i weeks or ca be customized ad exteded to create ew applicatios with the Software Developmet Kit. Quick to deploy ad easy to maitai, WorkSite lowers total cost of owership ad geerates a rapid retur o ivestmet.

3 Data Sheet Iterwove DeskSite, FileSite TM, ad OffSite TM Capture, Store ad Collaborate o Critical Busiess Cotet From your desktop Busiess Cotet: Your Most Valuable ad Vulerable Asset For most kowledge workers, the desktop is their office, ad a sigificat amout of iformatio, icludig documets, spreadsheets, presetatios ad s, clutters their systems. This ustructured data represets up to 80 percet of all iformatio geerated by orgaizatios, yet too ofte the data is hard to access ad proe to corruptio or loss. The time ad effort required to recreate this data ca be a sigificat drai o orgaizatioal productivity ad profitability. Orgaizatios eed a easy, cost-effective way to maage ad secure critical busiess cotet directly from the familiar desktop eviromet, without impactig day-to-day activities. Iterwove DeskSite ad FileSite Documet Maagemet for the Widows Desktop Iterwove provides two full-featured documet maagemet cliets DeskSite ad FileSite to help compaies gai cotrol of their vitally importat busiess cotet. DeskSite ad FileSite provide tight, out-of-the-box itegratio with popular Widows applicatios such as Microsoft Office, WordPerfect, Microsoft Outlook, Lotus Notes ad Novell GroupWise. Users ca create a ew documet, ope a existig documet, save a documet as a ew versio, chage profile iformatio ad perform may other documet maagemet fuctios all without ever leavig their familiar applicatio iterface. Iterwove FileSite DeskSite is a ituitive Widows cliet that itegrates WorkSite documet maagemet fuctioality ito Microsoft Office applicatios. FileSite adds seamless access to WorkSite documet maagemet fuctioality directly from Microsoft Outlook. By combiig the familiar user iterface of frequetly used applicatios with powerful documet maagemet fuctioality, DeskSite ad FileSite eable rapid adoptio of documet maagemet fuctios across the orgaizatio, ad users realize immediate productivity with miimal traiig. Powerful Tools to Orgaize ad Access Your Matters WorkSite stores files i a electroic file folder, called a WorkSpace that is the virtual equivalet of the paper file folder. The WorkSpace is the core elemet of mattercetric or project-cetric collaboratio, ad ulike other documet maagemet solutios each WorkSpace ca be accessed from both FileSite ad DeskSite, as well as from WorkDocs a browserbased UI, without the eed to maitai ad sychroize multiple databases. WorkSpaces ca be created for each matter or project, as eeded. Withi this virtual case file, you ca orgaize documets ad

4 i subfolders. Users ca create ew WorkSpaces, add folders, ad perform searches for ad withi WorkSpaces. Because users typically work o umerous projects, deals or matters at the same time, Iterwove has developed powerful tools that eable matter- or projectcetric avigatio. This is achieved through shortcuts that make all of the users projects or matters ad workspaces available directly from the desktop, elimiatig the eed to drill dow through database structures. The DeskSite ad FileSite tree views cotai two customizable lik lists, My Matters ad My Favorites that make it easy to avigate to workspaces of iterest. Simply storig documets ad i a cetralized repository is ot eough. I order to gai the most beefit, useful metadata must be applied, ad util ow, this has bee achieved by requirig the user to complete a documet profile form. This has bee a barrier to adoptio for may users, as it required chages i user behavior, ad ofte resulted i the etry of meaigless data to speed completio of the form. The ewest releases, DeskSite 8 ad FileSite 8, itroduce streamlied documet filig capabilities that work the way a busiess user does, virtually elimiatig the eed for maual etry of profile data. Durig matter or project creatio, metadata, such as matter/project ame, Iterwove DeskSite author, descriptio, ad more, is assiged to the project folders. Whe a user selects a folder i which to store a file or message, the documet will automatically iherit the metadata ad security from the folder, elimiatig the eed to maually eter profile values. The result? Happier users, ad better search results. Robust Maagemet Cosolidates Matter-Related Correspodece FileSite provides a powerful maagemet solutio plus full WorkSite fuctioality from the Microsoft Outlook iterface, eablig storage of messages ad attachmets i project/ matter-related folders i the same searchable repository as the rest of the project or matter files. Messages ca be dragged ad dropped ito the relevat folder. Whe used with WorkSite Commuicatios Server, a uique address ca be associated with each matter folder, eablig users to cc the matter folder o outboud messages, or to forward messages to the folder. As with documets, profile iformatio is automatically iherited from the folder, elimiatig the eed for maual data etry.

5 Key Features of DeskSite ad FileSite Streamlied Profilig Capabilities Classify each documet ad message with metadata fields tailored to your orgaizatios specific eeds. Profile iformatio ca be automatically iherited from the folder, elimiatig the eed for maual data etry. Documet Relatioships Establish liks betwee a primary documet ad appedices, such as a cover letter ad cotract. Quick Access Lists Directly access lists such as the list of documets checked out, the last 40 documets edited ad the last 10 searches performed. Audit Trails & Versio Cotrol Track the history of documets, icludig all activities performed o the documet, for regulatory, legal or operatioal purposes. Searchig Coduct powerful Boolea, wildcard, umber or date rage searches based o documet metadata ad full text. Search for documets, messages ad attachmets, or both at the same time, withi a WorkSpace or a folder. Frequetly performed searches ca be saved ad shared. Powerful Security Cotrol access to system fuctioality ad cotet at the object level based o user, group or role, so that sesitive iformatio remais i the hads of authorized users. Add-Os for Tight Itegratio DeskSite offers add-o modules that provide itegratio with Lotus Notes ad GroupWise . Users ca directly profile icomig s ad attachmets ad attach profiled documets to outgoig s from withi their applicatio. Iterwove OffSite Uparalleled Productivity for the Mobile Professioal I today s fast-paced eviromet, busiess users eed the ability to access iformatio at ay time, from ay locatio. This is especially true for users who sped a substatial amout of time o the road or at cliet sites. Util ow, mobile users had the ability to dowload specific files to a laptop for remote use, but they have lacked the ability to use documet maagemet features such as check-i/check-out, versioig ad search while discoected from the etwork. Iterwove OffSite is a add-o for FileSite ad DeskSite that provides users with the virtual equivalet of their matter or cliet file, makig all files stored i WorkSite, icludig documets, s, scaed images ad other cotet, readily accessible from the users laptop, eve whe discoected from the etwork. A fully portable versio of WorkSite, OffSite uses the same familiar user paradigms ad iterfaces available i olie mode, eablig users to browse the file hierarchy, view ad modify existig documets, create ew documets ad search repository cotet. O recoectio to the etwork, OffSite automatically sychroizes the etire file, ad OffSite s sophisticated sychroizatio algorithm resolves ay cotet coflicts quickly ad accurately. Iterwove OffSite provides the aytime, aywhere availability that today s highly mobile, fast-paced busiess professioal demads. Robust Reliable Platform That Scales With Your Busiess All WorkSite applicatios are powered by a ope, secure eterprise-class platform that scales to hadle millios of documets ad tes of thousads of geographically distributed users. Built o a highly flexible, distributed, multi-tier architecture, the WorkSite server supports a array of powerful features. Both DeskSite ad FileSite applicatios ca be deployed out-of-the-box, ad you ca customize ad exted these applicatios with the Iterwove Software Developmet Kit. With WorkSite, you get a robust scalable solutio that is quick to deploy ad easy to maitai resultig i a lower total cost of owership ad rapid retur o ivestmet.
