Extending Office

MarkLogic has released a new set of toolkits and connectors that contain customizable applications for the Microsoft Office suite, enabling authors to tag, search and reuse previously created content.

Developers can then build rich applications for Microsoft Office to extend its functionality. Once a document has been created, it is stored within MarkLogic Server and can be searched and updated to increase collaboration and content sharing between different teams within an organization.

MarkLogic toolkits are available for:

• Microsoft Word—allows for intelligent information authoring and dynamic assembly for reuse when creating new content;
• Microsoft Excel—search across spreadsheets and workbooks for text, formulas and metadata to improve information reuse and discovery; and
• Microsoft PowerPoint—create new custom presentations by searching and retrieving information that already exists in your library of presentations, documents and spreadsheets.
