the Free CMSWire NewsletterThere have been a number of interesting announcements in the GRC space this week. First, we had the release of a new governance product from SOA to manage IBM’s WebSphere, followed by a physical records management release for SharePoint 2010 and Mimecast support for BPOS. In the meantime, Autonomy was making its move into the healthcare market.
SharePoint 2010 Gets Physical RM
You may recall last month, when we looked at whether the new records management features in SharePoint 2010 have been successful in filling in gaps in the records management functionality of SharePoint 2007.
Vancouver-based OmniRIM (news, site) has been looking at the same thing and has just released OmniRIM for SharePoint. The program provides physical records management abilities and integrates into the electronic records management features of the SharePoint 2010 Records Center.
Designed as a cloud-based offering, it enables companies in regulated industries to manage records and information for the lifecycle of any items.
Features include a CRM dashboard, actionable searches and a highly designed overall experience that enables users to manage both electronic and physical records in a unified environment. OmniRIM for SharePoint is scheduled for general availability in Q1 2011.
SOA Offers IBM WebSphere Governance
Cloud service governance provider, SOA (news, site), has just announced the availability of a new suite of governance products to help customers successfully plan, build and run applications for the IBM (news, site) WebSphere Business Services Fabric.
As a result, users will be able to use IBM WebSphere products as part of an enterprise SOA environment, sharing services with other commercial SOA platforms including Microsoft, RedHat, Oracle and SAP.
Unified SOA Governance breaks down into a number of areas:
- Planning Governance is about making sure that you are building the right things
- Development Governance is about making sure you're building them the right way
- Operational Governance is about ensuring that what you've built is behaving correctly.
SOA Software's governance products for the IBM WebSphere Business Services Fabric are available now with prices starting at US$ 50,000.
BOPS Gets Mimecast Support
For BPOS users — and for those that might be looking at Office365 — cloud-based email management vendor Mimecast (news, site) has just announced support for Microsoft BPOS.
Apart from making content migration between the two a lot easier, Mimecast's services can now be fully integrated with Microsoft's hosted email platform. The result — BPOS users can get email archiving, as well as granular e-Discovery and legal hold capabilities.
BPOS is Microsoft's first email solution delivered entirely as a SaaS model and is designed to give businesses a viable alternative to managing their email system in-house.
