Architecture
SmartSearch is based on Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and built on the .NET platform. With a strong belief in the use of open architecture and industry standards, Square 9 Softworks created SmartSearch not only as a cost effective solution but also as a powerful platform to expand on. Features like Active Directory integration and SOA architecture deliver functionality still not found in many more expensive “Enterprise Level” solutions.
SmartSearch’s open architecture and adherence of industry standards ensures that
it is the right solution for the present and the future.
By storing documents in their native file format (PDF,
TIFF, JPG, PCX, TXT, RTF, CSV, Word, Outlook and Excel),
SmartSearch makes sure your documents will always be
available.
SmartSearch combines this use of open file formats with the power of Microsoft’s SQL Server 2005 database engine. Long established as an industry standard, MS SQL Server delivers unparalleled performance. Should a company wish to integrate SmartSearch with other database applications, its open table structure within SQL Server provides an ODBC compliant platform for data exchange.
Hardware Requirements
SmartSearch has been certified on the Microsoft 2000, 2003
and 2008 Server platforms and the Windows 2000 and XP
client. The Microsoft .NET platform is required for the
operation
of SmartSearch, however it is automatically included
with the installation of SmartSearch along with the Microsoft
SQL 2005 Express database engine.
SmartSearch is a storage independent solution. Records archived within SmartSearch can be saved to any server on the network requiring only a UNC Share path or mapped drive. If a company elects to archive its records to a near line jukebox or offline on CD or DVD, SmartSearch will support either storage environment.
