Major product upgrade in Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2
The Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2 implements a feature rich and XML based component layer for building enterprise solutions. It provides a deployment platform that matches the newly released development platform, Intellix Designer 4.11. The performance of the Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2 has been increased significantly, in particular for ISF based knowledge solutions.

The prospects for adding value to your business processes by using Intellix' products to automate and support intellectual decision processes have been increased significantly with the release of the Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2.

New transparent licensing model
A major feature introduced in Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2 is the implementation of a new licensing model. The new licensing model is flexible and transparent and allows various configurations of the Intellix Knowledge Server to be priced according to their respective feature sets. The licensing model suits small as well as large solutions by allowing solutions components to be acquired as needed, and it makes it easy to plan and estimate solution costs and TCO whenever the specific solution requirements have been charted.

The new licensing model is based on a server license and a solution license. Both types of licenses are necessary for solution deployment. A server license can be either a Small Business Server, a Medium Business Server, or an Enterprise Server. Their main characteristics are described in the following.

The Small Business Server (SBS) license gives access to basic knowledge server deployment features, and to additional features such as a session store and a Local Administrator, the UI for the knowledge server. The Medium Business Server (MBS) license is supplemented with the Intellix business integration framework and a Remote Administrator, and allows for solution sizes twice as big as with the SBS. The Enterprise Server license adds features for advanced handling of fail-over to the MBS feature set, and allows for solution sizes twice as big as with the MBS.

The solution license is a Pay Per User license that specifies a maximum amount of users, and it has a fixed price for each end-user seat.

Improved Repository
The Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2 is based on a new repository format, Intellix Repository 1.1, that allows for a logical separation of several solutions on the same Intellix Knowledge Server installation. This is vastly improving the ease with which each solution can be maintained on the same server, and allows multiple solutions to co-exist on a server without any conflicts.

Improved Warning and Notification Events
In version 2.2, errors reported via the operating system's event log now include missing license, license failure and expired license. Warnings are reported in the event log in case either 75%, 90% or 95% of the time period of a time-limited license has passed or in when the limitations of a solution license are approached.

Major performance improvements
Performance of knowledge solutions based on the ISF has been improved from Knowledge Server 2.1 to Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2. For details on the performance characteristics of the Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2 please consult the documentation provided in the Intellix Knowledge Server Developer Pack 1.2.

New administrators and developer pack
The release of Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2 is accompanied by the release of new versions of the administrator products, the Local Administrator 2.2 and Remote Administrator 2.2 with new and improved UI features, as well as a new developer pack, the Intellix Knowledge Server Developer Pack 1.2.

In conclusion, the Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2 comes with a heavily improved licensing model that gives customers a more flexible and transparent set of options for deploying knowledge management solutions. The Intellix Knowledge Server 2.2 and the Intellix Designer 4.11 now present themselves as a fully fledged pair of development and deployment platforms widening the scope for building and deploying advanced knowledge management solutions.
