Integration

The Immediacy framework is web service based and therefore leverages XML, SOAP and web services natively. Using plug-ins, Immediacy can access and display content from XML data sources from any provider whether local or remote on the web.

Extensibility

Immediacy server plug-ins allow developers to make full use of the power of ASP and ActiveX to add functionality to the publish process. Extensions for syndication, xml feeds, forums and access to third party databases are common.

 

Immediacy client plug-ins have access to an internal API. Client plug-ins can be used to allow editors to configure server side plug-ins or to render content for a given page. Admin add-ins, much like server plug-ins offer the full power of ASP and ActiveX to build powerful management extensions into the Immediacy system.

Server configuration

The most common architecture for Immediacy is the separate Staging server/Live server model. This requires two separate servers, the staging server generally within the corporate firewall and the live server outside and accessible to the public Internet. The required SQL database may be shared by both, or completely separate. However another standard model is to have both staging and live servers on one computer.
