CAB-i-NET Enhancement for Remote Office Locations

Andrew Whatling — Wed, 31 Aug 2011 14:45:24 +0000

tsaADVET’s customers have already deployed CAB-i-NET to their office locations outside the UK as they look to maximise their resources spread throughout the world. This enables a 24/7 design process on projects and they are all on a common database of drawings and documents. To improve the performance further across the wide area network, CAB-i-NET has been enhanced to allow local replication of the CAB-i-NET database. This improves performance in obtaining information across the WAN. File replication and caching can be accomplished using any industry options the customers wish, due to the fact that CAB-i-NET does not store the file data in a vault environment. Working closely with our customers this development is currently in testing before being released later in the year.

Rail Data Transfer Workshop

Andrew Whatling — Fri, 08 Jul 2011 11:22:49 +0000

tsaADVET held a data transfer workshop for its Rail customers in Birmingham on the 8th July. CAB-i-NET is widely used within the Rail industry for managing drawings and associated documentation. CAB-i-NET customers shared their experiences of transferring data with their suppliers and customers. The data held in CAB-i-NET can be easily exported as it is not held in a proprietary vault based system unlike most other EDMS systems. Currently there are no standards defined for data transfer and this is something the group is looking to establish to bring efficiencies to all parties.
