New MuseGlobal Version Empowers Partners
MuseGlobal, Inc., provider of content integration and data virtualization platforms worldwide, released Muse version 2.6.0.0, which includes a new module and a variety of enhancements. The Partner Source Factory, a new licensable module available from MuseGlobal, includes the Partner Source Build Environment, which allows Muse Partners to build their own Source Packages. Source Packages are the individual software bundles that execute connections, negotiate the authentication, normalize the data, and maintain information needed to connect to both internal and external data sources, from enterprise applications such as Lotus Notes and SAP to commercial content services such as Reuters and Factiva to social media sites such as LinkedIn and Twitter. They are stored, managed, maintained, and distributed using Muse’s Source Factory, a cloud-based enterprise grade platform that comprises the procedures, programming, and rules for constructing and distributing Muse Source Packages. “The Partner Source Build Environment comprises tools to write and test new Connectors and Source Package Configuration files,” says Jed Gilmore, MuseGlobal’s senior vice president for operations. “The Partner Source Build Environment also includes technology that allows customers to upload Source Packages they build for distribution through their local instance of the Distributed Source Factory.” All of the existing Source Factory utilities, including the Automated Source Update tool, run against the local Source Factory. The Source Build Environment tools, substantially updated for ease of use, have been in use by MuseGlobal programmers for years. Other important features in this release from MuseGlobal include full functionality testing under Java 1.7 and substantial functional and management enhancements alerts, used in Content Harvesting and User Alerts functionality.
