Apogée

Nuxeo provides highly dynamic applications, with no deployment barriers, auto-updatable, with reusable components, well integrated with the desktop and extensible, using web / internet open standards like HTTP, XHTML, XML, XMPP, XForms, etc.

Nuxeo has already designed and built a couple of ECM desktop applications based on Eclipse RCP : critical content available off-line, content updated automatically, application updated automatically, highly-responsive functions, full integration with on-line portal when needed, etc.

The first Eclipse RCP-based application was delivered to AFP (Agence France Press news agency) enabling its journalists to create news within Apogée using an integrated editor and other building blocks (images, live news feeds, archive, etc.) provided by CPS Patform within Apogée. The created content can then be published via CPS Platform using workflow actions available within Apogée.

The second Eclipse RCP-based application was delivered to CNCC (French institute of statutory auditors) enabling every French auditor (18 000 + users) to access the legal regulations and the best practices databases (hundreds of thousands of documents) without being on-line (on client site for example). Users can also add content within Apogée (digital annotations on interesting content). When connected, Apogée is automatically updated via CPS Platform.

The next step in implementing Nuxeo's vision of next-generation ECM is to design and build a framework, Apogée, that will become the cornerstone for various ECM-oriented desktop applications and it's independent from vendor or technologies. Since January 2006, Apogée became a proposed open source project under the Eclipse Technology Project.
