RIDC – Proprietary Thin-Client API for Communicating with Content Server

Advantages:                                                                                                                                                        • Easy to learn for those with extensive Content Server experience (very little abstraction from Content Server)

• With proper development, can be highly scalable, but requires more attention to detail

• Very lighweight; uses less system resources than CIS for enterprise applications

• Supports connecting via web server (authentication required for every request) or directly to Content Server socket (trusted connection).

Disadvantages:

• No configurable caching; all caching must be coded into application

• No built-in application logging; all logging must be coded into application

• Requires extensive Content Server architecture knowledge

• Only available for Java application.
