Day 2 at the Expo: The Security & Networking/Connectivity Beat

So far today, I've had several interesting visits to blog about. It's been busy at the Expo. I stopped by the MPI Tech booth and learned about Spool2Print, a spooling, print management, and printing software solution. Spool2Print supports distributed printing using common network printers. It has a GUI for managing print jobs, letting you duplicate, print, release, and reroute jobs.


I made my way over to the SkyView Partners booth to chat with them about their collaboration with Innovatum to add a realtime plug in to Policy Minder, Skyview's compliance management tool. The newly released Policy Minder Real Time uses Innovatum's DataThread technology to capture events affecting compliance as they occur, and it notifies the security officer with an e-mail message, identifying who made the change and letting the recipient run a Policy Minder compliance check or run correction procedures to bring the system back into compliance.


Onward! Next I stopped by EXTOL's display and got the lowdown on EXTOL Business Extenders, which let you automate the integration of non-EDI data. Released in late 2007, Business Extenders are fully functional subsets of the EXTOL Business Integrator, and they help you meet project-level integration requirements, such as database integration, spreadsheet and flat file integration, XML data integration, and web services integration.
