Architecture 

Built on a single, consistent platform, Objective ECM is designed to support the content needs of government agencies both within and beyond the firewall. 

Objective ECM 8 supports the delivery of targeted, lightweight and agile applications based on the design principles of: usability; performance; flexibility; breadth; governance and security.

Fifteen core services are deployed on top of the operating system and database layers. Server to server communication is via CORBA on top of IIOP.

Utilising this core architecture; document management, records management, workflow, business process management, approvals, reporting, audit, security, renditions, physical records management and search are harmonised in a single stack, single database and single content source model. This can be physically distributed to meet a wide range of application and organisational needs.

Core services are underpinned by WebTalk, an integral part of Objective ECM’s architecture. This delivers comprehensive integration and interoperability capabilities based on web services and ensures a robust architecture for delivering additional ECM capabilities as well as facilitating integration of Objective with external applications.

Overall, the architecture ensures continued integrity, security and auditing for all Objective capabilities and custom developed applications while seamlessly delivering the flexibility and performance expected in large scale ECM implementations.
