Ascent Collection Server

The Ascent Collection Server is the universal front door to Ascent Capture. It accepts documents from anywhere using the Internet or a network connection and delivers them to Ascent Capture. Any third party application, digital copier, or multi-function peripheral (MFP) can be integrated into an Ascent Capture solution for ad hoc and batch-oriented document capture.

The Ascent Collection Server allows any client application to obtain Ascent Capture batch and document information. Additionally, clients can submit documents (images, e-documents, and index data) to the Ascent Collection Server which delivers them to Ascent Capture. Because the Ascent Collection Server plugs into Ascent Capture, the world’s most popular information capture platform, you get an enterprise system that can collect any document, transform it into accurate, retrievable information, and deliver it into your enterprise content management system. You can even deliver information into multiple systems at the same time.

The Ascent Collection Server comprises three components:

• The Ascent Collection Web Server provides the Web services API that client applications interact with, along with an administration utility.
• The Ascent Collection Service connects the Ascent Collection Web Server with Ascent Capture and exchanges data between the two applications.
• The Ascent Collection SDK contains tools, sample applications and Web services API documentation to assist in building the client connection to the Ascent Collection Server.
