FatWire Unveils Web Experience Management Framework

MINEOLA, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--FatWire Software, the leading provider of Web Experience Management (WEM) solutions, today announced the early-access release of its Web Experience Management Framework. The new framework delivers a set of components that enable quick and easy integration of third-party and custom-built applications into the FatWire WEM product suite. Organizations can now have an expanded set of web applications and functions operating seamlessly as a unified interactive business platform. Several FatWire partners, including Mahindra Satyam, Congruent, frevvo, and Element 115, have already leveraged the WEM Framework to ensure faster time-to-market for FatWire-integrated applications and to deliver an easy-to-manage set of tools to help joint customers succeed online.

?Working with FatWire has never been easier?

FatWire?s WEM product suite provides the leading solution enabling organizations to automate management of their web presence, including content authoring, site design, content publishing, dynamic deployment, multi-lingual content management, content targeting, content integration, web content analytics and user participation. FatWire?s solutions power some of the world?s most engaging websites and help organizations drive sales, loyalty and great business efficiencies.

Organizations today require an ever-expanding set of capabilities for the web in order to enable them to deliver marketing, customer management and online business success. The WEM Framework enables easy integration of specialized or custom applications into the FatWire WEM suite, making integrated management of online business a reality. The WEM Framework provides:

• Common user interface framework: A single user interface provides unified management across FatWire applications and integrated third-party applications, giving users seamless access to all of the capabilities they need to manage their web presence.
• Centralized user and role management: Single sign-on enables users to login in once and navigate among WEM and partner applications while maintaining appropriate access privileges and capabilities. And with centralized identity and user management across applications, administering users is simple.
• Centralized administration: This functionality enables centralized management of users, roles, site and applications. These policies automatically apply across all FatWire and third-party integrated solutions.
• REST API: This API enables turnkey repository connectivity for third-party applications, so they can access and run on FatWire-managed content.

The WEM Framework enables easy extension of the FatWire WEM suite and a seamless user experience across FatWire and integrated third-party applications, offering ease of use and streamlined management of the web presence.

"Working with FatWire has never been easier," states Raju Sitaram, vice president, Congruent Solutions. "With the new WEM framework capabilities, we can offer pre-built value-added applications for customers that integrate directly with their FatWire web content management foundation, saving customers time and money in building a web presence that will differentiate their business from the competition."
