Project Horizon, based on Pivotal CF, the leading enterprise PaaS powered by Cloud Foundry, enables all digital content streams for the digital enterprise. It brings a unique approach with a mindset that puts mobile and the cloud at the forefront, providing a next-generation multi-tenancy content platform.
Customers will enjoy the freedom to innovate and consume based on content-specific use cases, delivering new levels of agility, user experience and productivity, leveraging data and analytics to automate common tasks and provide predictive insights.
“Digital companies are moving away from monolithic solutions. Knowing how people will handle content in the future will depend on a revolution in the way they access, manage, and deliver content,” said Rohit Ghai, President, EMC Enterprise Content Division.
Project Horizon Highlights:
• Agile Base: foundation for “multi-tenancy” offered as a shared services platform to build cloud-native applications.
• Bridge to the future: enables current generation Documentum solutions based on D2 and xCP™ to be hosted on Project Horizon, empowering customers to advance their digital journey and continue to access its user interface and platform services. Among the new solutions to be hosted on Project Horizon are Documentum Capital Projects Express and Documentum Life Sciences Solutions Suite 4.0.
• Modular architecture and immediate value: Built on a microservices-based architecture, Project Horizon is DevOps and Agile ready. The architecture supports continuous deployment and integration, thus enabling an innovation cycle of days or weeks rather than months or even years. Each of these Modules or “Tiles” will also have a ready-to-use application and the ability to embed it to create solutions by assembling these modular blocks of functionality. This reduces payback time and allows customers to use what they need and pay only for what they use.
• Co-innovation program: a new innovation program specifically designed to engage customers early in the development cycle through rapid visual prototyping. The program's unique approach leads partners and customers to work with EMC teams to create the "tiles" of Project Horizon.
