( EMAILWIRE.COM, February 13, 2007 )   Berkshire — Alfresco Software, Inc., the first and leading provider of an open source enterprise content management solution, today announced the release of the first book on Alfresco. This is a guide for people interested in the Alfresco system and building successful Content Management applications.

In the last two years Alfresco has evolved to cover the four major pieces of Enterprise Content Management – Document Management, Web Content Management, Records Management and Image Management. It has also worked with open source leaders to deliver and benchmark the most scalable JSR-170 repository on the market today. When Packt, a publishing company with a proven track record in Open Source publishing, approached Alfresco about the possibility of producing a book, the team quickly agreed that this would be a great way to provide the Alfresco community with the team’s expertise at a very low cost of delivery.

“On the publication of this book we now have 500,000 downloads, 5,000 community sites running on Alfresco and hundreds of subscribers to the Enterprise Network,” said John Powell, CEO, Alfresco, Inc. “This book is the perfect opportunity to enable people to participate in the open source community and the Alfresco journey.”

“Alfresco has rapidly become the leading open source Enterprise Content Management system,” said Munwar Shariff, CTO, CIGNEX and the book’s writer. “This book is the end-product of the expertise we have gained by implementing Alfresco in numerous enterprises and training business users. Whenever, we come across an excellent product that can benefit with more documentation, as an SI we step-up to fill the gap. We expect this book to become a catalyst for expanding the Alfresco community.”

A downloadable chapter of the book – Implementing Document Management - is available in the Alfresco Content Community at:
