ALEXANDRIA, Virginia, October 26, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

    Bitrix, Inc. ( http://www.bitrixsoft.com), a trendsetter in business
communications, has announced the release of Bitrix Site Manager Version
11.0. Most notable product enhancements are: Cloud storage support;
Geo-distributed Web Cluster for smarter web traffic distribution; Quality
Monitor tools with extendable tests.

    "We made modifications throughout our product to make this version a
'Cloud platform' for web development." - said Sergey Rizhikov, CEO, Bitrix,
Inc.

    Bitrix Cloud Storage module supports Google Storage, Amazon S3, Windows
Azure Storage, and OpenStack, as well as CDN (Content Delivery Network),
which accelerates uploading of large files.

    The new Geo-distributed Web Cluster module provides insurance against a
service outage in a single data center. If one data center goes down, a
replicated server in a different location will ensure website availability.

    Version 11.0 is equipped with a Project Quality Control tool which
offers a set of tests that ensure optimal quality of integration of the
design, the program's external environment, security, performance, and
hosting settings within the system.

    Bitrix Site Manager now provides authentication via an unbreakable
method of password encoding using an RSA algorithm with a 1024-bit key. The
password is transferred to the server in this encoded form regardless of the
browser or environment.

    Other important product enhancements

   
    - Social Search - search results based on content and user
      reputation evaluation;
    - Admin Dashboard - back-end desktops with drag-and-drop gadgets
      and quick search;
    - Photo Gallery - additional skins, a new thumbnail slider, and
      the Live Feed support;
    - Schema.org support - microformats in the e-Store for better
      search engine indexing;

      more.
