Interwoven Launches Global Seminar Series on Achieving IT Compliance and Governance for Critical Applications
Seminar Attendees Will Learn Best Practices for Standardizing and Automating the Provisioning of Web, Composite, and SOA Applications
SUNNYVALE, Calif - May 15, 2006 - Interwoven, Inc. (Nasdaq: IWOV), provider of Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solutions for business, today announced the beginning of a seminar series entitled "Achieve IT Compliance and Governance Through Automation," which will be presented over the next four weeks in major cities across North America and Australia. Attendees will learn how to standardize and automate processes around the provisioning of today's complex composite, Web, and Service-oriented Architecture (SOA) applications in order to speed time-to-market, improve efficiency, and achieve IT compliance and governance.
Today's enterprises are gaining competitive advantage by introducing new and unique business applications, including composite, Web, and SOA applications, that are dynamic, disparate, and allow for the flexibility to change quickly, as the business demands. However, in spite of their potentially transformative impact on both business and IT, many companies are only now beginning to understand what composite applications actually are-and the unique challenges they present for IT Operation groups. New regulatory compliance mandates require a high level of control and accountability for the code, content, and configurations reflected in these applications and frequent change requests can overwhelm IT resources, creating bottlenecks that delay time-to-market. Current provisioning processes are typically expensive, inefficient, manual, and error-prone.
Interwoven helps companies overcome these challenges by providing a solution for standardizing the way code, content, and configuration changes to Web, composite, or SOA applications are aggregated, synchronized, and deployed throughout testing, staging, and production environments in order to bring critical applications to market faster. IT organizations can meet key IT compliance requirements by leveraging a repeatable process for aggregating, synchronizing, and deploying composite applications while offering an auditable trail, full reporting and retention, guaranteeing data integrity of all composite applications. By automating the provisioning process, organizations can accelerate the availability of critical business applications to the organization and slash release management costs an average 40 percent.
What: Interwoven is conducting a nine-city global seminar series on how to "Achieve IT Compliance and Governance Through Automation," educating attendees on how IT Operations can:
Increase efficiency and reduce deployment costs an average of 40%
Accelerate application time-to-market from days to minutes
Eliminate manual error-prone processes
Capture an auditable trail of all change and release activity
Guarantee all servers go-live in unison while capturing a snapshot of the live environment
Synchronize application updates and automate rollback if needed
