Alchemy Web Server

As you depend on the Internet to support everyday business processes, providing enhanced data access via web browsers is a necessity. Every day you create files and documents that you need to make available using an intranet, extranet or the Internet. The majority of these files cannot efficiently be stored in a relational database. Examples include scanned images, computer report files (COLD), Adobe Acrobat PDF files, text files, Microsoft Office documents and other binary files.

Alchemy® Web enables you to provide users around the globe with browser-based access to your information assets. Users only need a browser to take advantage of the powerful search capabilities of AWS. AWS allows users to find information regardless of their location with no need to install software. Once users find the appropriate documents, they can view, print, and save the documents in either the native file format or in HTML. Users can also e-mail the document. The ability to quickly locate and share business data allows you to make better business decisions and improve customer service.
