Shanghai Sportscn.com Information Technology Co., Ltd. Selects RepliWeb’s R-1 Distribution Manager to Replace Site Server (CRS) for Web Content Publishing
Sportscn.com, one of the most frequently visited Chinese sports sites, is replacing MS Site Server (CRS) web content publishing with RepliWeb's content deployment solution - R-1.
Pompano Beach, FL (PRWEB) July 5, 2005 -- RepliWeb Inc. a leader in
Enterprise Web Content Deployment technologies announced today that Shanghai
Sportscn.com Information Technology Co., Ltd., one of the leading sports
websites in China, has selected the RepliWeb R-1 Distribution Manager for web
content publishing of v.sports.com
Shanghai Sportscn.com Information
Technology Co., Ltd. (Sportscn.com) was founded in 2000 by MIH Group, the
largest media investment institute in South Africa, Shanghai Information
Investment Inc. and Li-Ning Sports (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., the number one sports
brand in China.
The company’s www.sportscn.com is a vertical
sports website which serves Chinese-speaking sports enthusiasts in Mainland
China and worldwide. Sportscn.com is building a technically advanced, content
rich interactive sports platform and integrated service system that delivers the
best sporting content (including text, image, video and audio) to multiple
interactive platforms (Internet, Mobile Phone and Interactive TV, etc.).
Sportscn.com is creating the strongest vertical interactive sports brand in the
Chinese sports industry and seeks to achieve the largest market
share.
Since its inception in 2000, Sportscn.com has relied on MS Site
Server (CRS) for web content publishing. With Site Server no longer supported
and Sportscn.com’s plans to upgrade to Windows 2003 Server, the company required
a new content deployment solution.
Sportscn.com is one of the most
frequently visited Chinese sports sites. As such, uninterrupted operations,
guaranteed content freshness and availability, and minimal overhead associated
with content deployments were critical issues. Sportscn.com’s web server
infrastructure consists of dozens of production servers each being updated from
one centralized content repository. The content under management included tens
of thousands of files, of varying size, with extensive subdirectory structures.
”The size and complexity of our environment required an extremely robust
solution” commented Song KaiCheng, Director of Technology, of v.sportscn.com.
”We tested many commercial replication products and found RepliWeb’s R-1 to be
most reliable solution for deploying content to the large number of servers that
we have under management. R-1’s error-free operations and over all performance
was unmatched.”
”When it comes to large scale Web Content Publishing and
specifically Site Server Replacements, RepliWeb delivers the highest value
product in the market.” Commented Garrick Herrmann, Vice President Sales and
Marketing for RepliWeb. ”There are lots of replication products that now claim
they are Site Server replacements solutions. Its really missleading to
consumers. These me-too products lack the scalability, stability and performance
that R-1 offers. For customers like Sportscn.com that operate in extremely
high-volume environments there is no room for error, and that is why they select
R-1.
Sportscn.com expects continued growth and expansion and considers
RepliWeb a key strategic technology partner.
