What the Emerging Information Technologies Are

People who are interested in the subject, even if they are not experts, usually want to know what is new in information technologies. There are so many new things going on that only a few new things can be mentioned here. However, this will give a few of the emerging information technologies which are improving and in use.

One of the trends that is being put to use right now is semiconductor technology. This is where microchips are being used to transmit information quickly. This technology was being used in the 1970s with automobiles, however, they are virtually everywhere now. Microchips with microelectomechanical systems are being in used in many small devices to carry information.

Examples of these devices are ink jet printers and hard disk drives heads. They are also seen in accelerometers which deploy airbags. The reason that this technology is so popular is because it is becoming very fast yet it is very economical. The cheaper something is yet is functional the more marketable it is.

The next thing that is advancing in technology is information storage. Disk drives and other forms have improved with their speed and capacity to store. This is also becoming less costly which is many times the goal in this business. It is noted this is the form that information is stored in mainly compared to other forms. As we have seen over the past couple of decades, computers have gone down in price considerably. This is because the advanced technology which does not cost as much.

The next emerging technology is networking. More and more, computers are becoming connected either in local area networks or wide area networks. The reason that networking has grown as it has is because of the advent of optic fibers. Nothing shows how networking has increased exponentially like how the use of the internet has exploded.

Another example of why information technology has emerged the it has is because there are so many applications. If one looks at a computer, there are so many different applications like word processing, spreadsheets, and so much other software. It is almost impossible to think that things will slow down in this field requiring the use of IT specialists for years to come.

There are many other forms of emerging technologies which can be found either online or in IT journals. Many people are working on new projects which may be the next success story.

The world of information technology may seem like it is overloaded because of all of the products that are out now, but there is probably more new technologies yet to be discovered. This is still a virtually young field in that with as much progress has been made, it has happened in the past 20 to 30 years. Many business types that IT helps still have many places to grow to help their target consumers or audience. This is a topic that one can say stay tuned for what else might come up to help a large population out there.

Crawford Technologies Archives Print Output in EMC Documentum

(PRWEB) January 18, 2011

Crawford Technologies today announced the release of v2.6 of its PRO Archiver product for archiving print output in EMC’s Documentum. PRO Archiver includes capabilities such as:
    An enterprise-class scalable processing server.    Support for transforming, indexing and archiving of text, PDF, AFP, Metacode/DJDE, Postscript, and PCL files containing multiple documents.    Archiving to EMC’s Documentum and EMC’s Documentum High-Volume Server (HVS).    Utilizes open standard archival formats including PDF and PDF/A.    Extendable plug-in based architecture.

CrawfordTech’s PRO Archiver version 2.6 is backwards compatible with EMC’s Documentum Archive Services for Reports (ASR) v2.5 product and provides an upgrade path for current EMC ASR users. PRO Archiver makes an excellent solution for new and current Documentum users who want to manage reports and transactional customer communication documents in Documentum.

To provide maximum performance for large enterprises, PRO Archiver v2.6 includes a unique 'Store in Documentum Express' plug-in. This plug-in provides the ability to store content in the Documentum High Volume Server (HVS). HVS is an extension of Documentum with the ability to ingest and process mass volumes of content at extremely high rates. HVS provides an improved ingestion API that includes blocking and scoping. By leveraging this new API, the Documentum Express Plug-in is able to improve ingestion performance into Documentum.

To provide additional flexibility and performance to handle all environments, PRO Archiver v2.6 provides users with a variety of bursting models, including pre-burst, full-burst, no-burst, and section bursting. The pre-burst model allows the content to be burst at the time the print file is converted into PDF or PDF/A providing the ultimate in bursting performance.

Another unique capability of PRO Archiver is its ability to archive indexed files of any type. This is a powerful new feature that can be used to migrate from one repository to another. Once the content and the metadata have been extracted from the legacy repository, PRO Archiver v2.6 can accept the metadata in XML format, the content in its native format, and store and index that content into Documentum or Documentum HVS.

“PRO Archiver v2.6 is a major step forward, providing an enterprise-class solution for integration of reports and transactional customer communications documents into the world’s favorite Enterprise Content Management system, EMC’s Documentum” said Ernie Crawford, President, Crawford Technologies Inc. “Commensurate with this announcement, we are now in the process of migrating customers with the older EMC ASR product to PRO Archiver so they can take advantage of the new capabilities and to guarantee a product roadmap for the future”, adds Crawford.

Crawford Technologies is continuing their offer to provide a free license for existing ASR customers. Any company that purchased ASR from EMC prior to June 17, 2010 will be able to upgrade from ASR to PRO Archiver v2.6 if they sign a maintenance agreement with CrawfordTech by June 30, 2011. After that date, ASR customers will need to purchase licenses for the PRO Archiver product.
