Day Software a provider of content management and content infrastructure software, has announced that the company is launching a series of standardized connectors for leading legacy repositories.

The repository connectors are fully compliant with the Content Repository for Java Technology API standard (JSR170). The first of these groundbreaking interfaces to be delivered is for EMC Documentum.

The Day connector will make enterprise content stored in Documentum’s legacy repository accessible through the new industry standard, creating greater interoperability and openness. Other connectors that are in development include interfaces for FileNet, OpenText LiveLink, Microsoft SharePoint, IBM Domino.doc, Software AG Tamino, and Interwoven, among others.

This technology will allow the implementation of content access, search, versioning, synchronization and consolidation, leveraging future-proof standardization, even if the content resides in data stores that do not provide a JSR-170 compliant API.
