iOra SharePoint Replication Technology Successfully Tested by US Coalition Warrior Interoperability Demonstration
GUILDFORD, England, March 16, 2012/PRNewswire/ --
iOra, the world's leading provider of high performance SharePoint replication
solutions, has been successfully tested by the US 2011 Coalition Warrior Interoperability
Demonstration (CWID). The CWID is a US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff-directed
annual event that engages cutting-edge information technology, focusing on operational
shortfalls identified by combatant commanders and government agencies.
The results for the 2011 CWID demonstrated that iOra's SharePoint replication
technology was fully compliant with the US DOD IA Policy. In addition the testing
demonstrated that iOra:
- was easy to install
- enabled the simple and straightforward replication of shared portals
- its functionality for manual and automatic updates reported zero failures
- that 100% of data was the same after replication based on users verification
- easily replicated and stored data
Currently, cross-site access is often limited by the network, units are forced to work
in silos, and operational effectiveness is threatened. The iOra patented SharePoint
replication solution allows users to quickly access content that is local to the user,
even when there is unreliable reach back capability to headquarters, and also allow the
bi-directional transfer of information. The trial demonstrated a live synchronization over
a simulated satellite link of typical operational data from a simulated headquarters
environment to a deployed user.
"iOra provides Microsoft SharePoint replication solutions to the world's largest
military organizations including the US Navy, the US Army and the UK's MOD. iOra
SharePoint replication technology allows the changes made to huge volumes of information
to be rapidly synchronized to remote servers or laptops to facilitate continuous Microsoft
SharePoint, and file-based access to the latest mission critical information. Military
users can actively collaborate to jointly manage mission plans within an operational
environment as well as deliver duty of care and training packages using networks that have
limited bandwidth and intermittent availability such as satellite, HF, UHF."*
iOra's patented technology works in environments where the bandwidth is as low as
2kbps with over 65,000 machines currently licensed to perform iOra replication. Offering
both server to server and server to laptop solutions, iOra is used extensively in the
commercial and public sectors including over 20 military organizations to replicate data.
iOra has been replicating data for customers for over 10 years across a broad range of
industries including shipping, financial services, consumer packaged goods, mining, and
energy.
"The CWID tested the functionality and capabilities of iOra's SharePoint replication
solution to the limit. Operating under very challenging conditions iOra's technology
achieved excellent results and demonstrated its fitness for purpose. This demonstration
gives customers, who are looking to replicate their SharePoint intranets and extranets
across low bandwidths and to offline users, a very high degree of confidence in the
capabilities of iOra," commented John Thompson, CEO, iOra.
