The Distributed System Connector for WorkSite is a collection of dozens of new commands to completely reroute all of the native WorkSite document operations to handle them better in multi-database environments. This especially applies in non-meshed Parallel environments, or environments where there are shortcuts to documents in folders where the physical document resides on a different server/database than the server to which the user is currently logged in.
This product can be especially helpful for firms that have multiple databases in multiple offices or regions around the world, and their users need to frequently access documents in different WorkSite databases and servers. The Distributed System Connector allows for more efficient use of network and WorkSite system resources by allowing users to seamlessly connect as needed, marshal those connections, and dispose of them when no longer needed. The Distributed System Connector also provides unique utilities for managing document shortcuts in distributed environments.
