Eliminates 95% of Network Traffic (Chelmsford, Mass.) August 26, 2002: Leveraging its powerful FastMirror technology, Availl unveiled today Availl 2.0, establishing a breakthrough in collaboration and content delivery technology. Availl 2.0 is the industrys only solution for automatically mirroring files on a massive scale, between or to users PC hard drives. Availls breakthrough is simplicity: 100% transparent file mirroring, in real-time, in Microsoft Windows folders. Because its FastMirror technology eliminates 95% of all traffic, and operates transparently 24 x 7, Availl enables collaborative workgroups or content delivery across any domain or supply chain. Changes made to any file (such as documents or CAD drawings) by any group member, instantly updates to all other members. Availl operates exactly opposite of portals, by mirroring data out to the edge (the user PCs).Enterprises need 24 X 7 file collaboration for workgroups, including groups that cross supply chains said Bob Perry of Harbor Controls. But IT Managers know that users wont learn new interfaces and the solution must be 100% transparent in order to be successful. Finally, IT needs a secure solution that eliminates virtually all traffic from file sharing, and also for delivering ever-changing files like manuals and catalogs. Availl is the first company to meet these needs.Availl solved the core problems of workgroup file collaboration, but also those of file distribution and delivery. As the Anti-Portal, Availl leverages the internet to transparently keep all files up to date at the edge. For example, enterprises must keep remote offices and supply chain partners updated with the latest information. Forms, price lists, product information, shop manuals and more. With Availl, workers are up to date on a 24 x 7 basis, in real-time, without demanding repeated browsing of company portals and repeated full-file downloads - or a barrage of emailed files. They always have the latest files with them, transparently, and with 95% less traffic.Users create workgroups spanning organizations in three easy steps: The folder owner creates a new Windows folder. The owner creates the list of group members. The owner sends an email with a link. Once a new group member clicks on the link, the groups folder appears on their PC (in the Windows folder UI), and the files appear. Only changes are then mirrored in real time, 100% transparently, and 24 x 7.-more-Availl 2.0 Anti-Portal: Effective Collaboration and Content Delivery / p.2The Availl platform leverages the internet in a truly unique way to efficiently deliver content to the network edge: user PCs. It brings together unlimited groups of any size; whether supply chains, customers, or cross-department peer groups. Features include: Availls FastMirror TM technology eliminates 95% of sharing bandwidth since only changes (deltas) are ever mirrored. This file differencing is especially important for large files (i.e. CAD, presentation and graphics), or often changing files. Every group member always has only the latest version, in real-time. No stale versions, multiple copies, or working on obsolete copies. It is 100% transparent, and operates 24 x 7 to all end users. No new interface; Availl works within the Windows folder UI, and is automatic, silent operation of real time mirroring. Any group member who makes a change, has it instantly mirrored onto all other group member PCs. Past file versions are kept on the server for one-click web retrieval (95% efficient; it only stores deltas on the server). Files are local to each members PC. Full on/off line access and work is done at drive speed. Control the permission level of all group members for read/write or read-only capability. Extends to any groups spanning any organizations, located anywhere. 100% secure with integral SSL and encryption. Supports all file types.
