Soutron takes full advantage of relational database technology including advanced data management structures such as taxonomies and thesauri, related records, parts and amendments.
Ease of Search & Discovery
These include federated and real time indexes to access digital content with full text where available. Citations found are immediately transferred into Document Request systems to locate the article or information needed in a highly efficient process.
Modern day connectors such as APIs or web services enable our systems to integrate with your internal systems in a seamless manner. Where security is important clients can implement granular security and permissions models with or without DRM.
This makes it easier for content to be made accessible to peripatetic staff, yet remain secure.

Search Portal
The information service supporting users need flexibility. This is demonstrated by the use of template designs to create one or more search portals. Each one customised to a particular research group and targeted at specific content. Alternatively, a single search portal can be designed that searches across all types of content.
