"We are very excited about the initial success of these products. We have made substantial investments to initiate and lead the JSR 170 specification, the global standard for enterprise content access, and we have developed our own products in parallel with the standard. We are now on track to position Day Software as the leader in the emerging market for Java Content Repositories. We believe that this expansion of our product portfolio will be an excellent basis for further growth," explained David Nuescheler, Chief Technology Officer of Day and Specification Lead for JSR 170 initiative.

JSR 170 is the new standard that defines the interaction between a business application and the repository where the application stores content.
