Axiope's Catalyzer platform improves on established data
management technology in two synergistic ways (see architecture diagram). The
platform's use of XML database technology has
enabled us to provide a comprehensive range of components which can be
combined in different ways to address
a variety of application areas. And the Catalyzer
platform enables users with limited computer skills to
build, configure, modify and maintain systems which are
web-accessible, secure, and which link all their information
sources. Catalyzer-based applications make use of a family
of plugins developed for data formats commonly used in the
industry, e.g. microscopy, flow cytometry, imaging and image
analysis, and electrophysiology. Proteomics and genomics
plug-ins, and plug-ins for general purpose applications,
such as Microsoft Office and Adobe's PDF and Photoshop, are
also planned or under development.
Catalyzer is used in a variety of applications including:
Typically customers approach us intending to use Catalyzer
for one of the application-areas already described. After
adopting Catalyzer for that application, or, increasingly,
in the course of evaluating the system, they become
enthusiastic about Catalyzer's capability to handle a full
range of their data management needs.
