 The Scene7 Infinite Imaging Platform (IIP) package is a set of tightly integrated modules with everything you need to create, enhance, manage, publish, and serve “dynamic images.” The premier edition to the Scene7's platform includes the following components:  Use the Image Production System as your primary image repository or integrate it with your existing legacy site-architecture environment. IPS comes with a SOAP/XML service that allows direct connection between your existing application servers, CMS, and/or DAM systems. The Infinite Imaging Server is a web service configured to a port on the server. It acts like a black box, responding to image requests with simple URL calls. You can integrate the IIS into your production web environment by changing your website pages to request an image from the IIS instead of from a web-server folder. As an added advantage, your request can include parameters that change the size, resolution, and other parameters for the image on the fly. You can create these requests in IPS and then cut and paste them into your dynamic website pages. When you integrate the Scene7 Infinite Imaging Platform, your overall production environment and website might look like the one shown below. 
Microsoft Office Integration: Access images in IPS directly from Microsoft Office 2003. Using the Microsoft Office Research task pane, images stored in IPS can be made available for use in Microsoft Word documents and PowerPoint presentations. This integration extends the reach of image assets within IPS, and allows information workers to access the power of Scene7’s Infinite Imaging Platform directly from the tools they work in everyday. Scene7 for Microsoft Office allows you to search the image repository within IPS for corporate approved imagery that can be modified and inserted into your Word documents or PowerPoint presentations, ensuring accurate, up-to-date visual information. A SOAP Web Service running under the IPS application server provides simple text and advanced search queries for IPS assets. Using a client-installed Smart Tag library, images can be processed through sophisticated image templates and inserted directly into Word or PowerPoint applications. To Platform Overview  |
