Hyper.Net 6 SP2 Highlights

Conversion

In addition to the built-in services for generating XML, HTML, PDF, PDF/A and Flash content, Hyper.Net now also makes it possible to easily integrate any traditional command-line document converter into its run-time process. The new interface enables organizations to supplement Hyper.Net at any time with the conversion power needed to respond quickly to any specific business need—the conversion of AutoCAD files, for example, or the production of valid, metadata-stamped PDF/A files capturing the content of single documents or entire records of documents related to any specific business process.

Ebooks

Using a its powerful, intelligent parser, Hyper.Net 6.2 provides fully automated conversion of documentation into richly-formatted ebooks based on the standard .epub format.

Web content management

Hyper.Net already enables Microsoft SharePoint Server to function as a complete Web Content Management solution supporting the re-purposing and publication of documents and other content. In Hyper.Net 6.2, this same technology has been extended to function with SharePoint Foundation without limitation of power. Documents can thus be managed in SharePoint Server or SharePoint Foundation and their corresponding re-purposed content can be easily integrated and shared with systems and business processes within or beyond the boundaries of SharePoint.

Dynamic categorization

Using Hyper.Net 6.2’s Taxonomy Manager, keyword-based taxonomies for any document set can be created and varied at any time as needed at the structural or content level. Organizations are enabled to provide various audiences optimized access to the same content using directories and navigation systems that have been customized to fit each application or end-user’s need. The function supports modifying taxonomies at will without having to manually reassign metadata values to every individual document. Allows logical ordering of categories and publications.

Enhanced scalability

With Version 6.2, Hyper.Net has been significantly extended to ensure extremely secure and reliable operation in the data center. Hyper.Net is increasingly selected by large organizations that need to process extremely large document collections at high speed or implement instantaneous or down-to-the-second scheduled deployment of mission critical information. Hyper.Net’s content transformation processes can now also be configured to respond to any need. They can be run in parallel on one server or distributed across multiple servers. In this case, Hyper.Net’s Workload Manager ensures optimal resource allocation (load balancing) across all servers and steps in as well to provide intelligent failover. Version 6.2 can be run synchronously—tightly integrated with SharePoint’s document management functions—and also asynchronously via the Hyper.Net Web Service interface.

New administrator’s interface

Hyper.Net 6.2’s administrator console has been completely revised, re-built with Silverlight and extended to support the integration of external plug-ins that provide access to IT resource management functions. Together with significantly expanded system documentation, the new administrator’s console makes administering Hyper.Net easier and more intuitive than ever before.

SharePoint Special Treat

All SharePoint users connected to servers where Hyper.Net 6.2 has been installed receive an extra-special treat. A new icon on the SharePoint library ribbon allows users to select any number of documents of any type. These are then merged on-demand into a single PDF and saved.
