KGS also for non-SAP
KGS has added a new product to its solution suite: KGS WebAPI acts as a link between individual specialist applications and the KGS archiving solution established in the SAP environment.
The API is designed as a web service and can be connected independently of programming languages. This means that in future, any application can archive or search for documents and data in KGS ContentServer4Storage via web technologies.
The substructure of the non-SAP archive is the same as the previous KGS solutions in the SAP area and is characterized by high reliability, speed and performance.
Customer portals can also be connected via the new API; companies can set up any solution scenarios based on KGS's own licensing rules. A prerequisite for using the solution: documents are archived with a unique ID that can be used to find them again later.
The document can then be displayed or processed directly in the specialist application/customer portal. With the new WebAPI and the KGS ContentServer4Storage, KGS recently implemented an archive service for one of Germany's largest energy supply companies, which now provides any number of users with high-performance access to millions of documents.
