WindFire Gains Momentum with ECM Solutions for Banking Industry

Production-class system deploys in seven major banks

June 1, 2002 - San Diego, CA—WindFire Technology announced that their Xtorm™ enterprise content management (ECM) applications have been selected for deployment in seven major Korean banks. Components of the suite were sold and deployed by the Alliance Systems, WindFire's Asian partner, in cooperation with major system integrators including EDS, IBM and Fujitsu.

The new customers include four of the five largest banks in Korea: ChoHung Bank, KookMin Bank, Housing and Commercial Bank, and Korea First Bank.
Xtorm ECM applications are specifically designed for production-level transaction processing environments. Highly scalable, the applications are capable of processing millions of documents per day with a high degree of reliability and fault tolerance.

"WindFire's ECM components and framework dramatically exceeded our competition's offerings," said SungGu Cho, CEO of Alliance Systems. "In fact, our banking clients' key requirements were performance and scalability; Xtorm won on every account by a sizable measure, and at a significantly lower cost."

Deploying content management with high-volume imaging components, these major banks utilize WindFire's virtual repository framework to ensure high performance processing, storage and retrieval capabilities.

The Xtorm applications are a suite of fully integrated and embeddable ECM applications. Built in J2EE, XML and Unicode, the suite includes support for web services.
