ABBYY Recognition Server 2.0
Development and Integration
ABBYY Recognition Server provides a set of development tools allowing easy integration of the OCR functions into other server-based systems, such as enterprise content management (ECM), electronic records management (ERM) or document management systems (DMS):
COM-based API – An open COM-compatible Application Programming Interface (API) that allows third-party systems to transfer recognition tasks to ABBYY Recognition Server and retrieve output files.
Web service API – A programming interface that enables cross-platform integration and integration with remote systems and applications by using SOAP and HTTP protocols.
XML tickets – Program-generated XML files (XML tickets) used to customize processing parameters for certain documents. An XML ticket can be generated by means of ABBYY Recognition Server API or by a client application.
ABBYY Recognition Server offers the following benefits for software developers:
Server-based architecture
Allows rapid integration of the OCR module with other server-based systems without spending extra time and resources on developing a Windows service functionality.
Lower-cost integration with third-party systems and applications
Recognition Server’s high-level API provides access to the ready-to-use document conversion functionality that can be used without additional programming.
System scalability
The ability to easily scale the system and increase the OCR capacity by using additional hardware
High reliability and fault-tolerance of the OCR module
Ability to provide detailed information on the system operations, warning and error messages issued by the system.
Document quality control
Ability to automatically sort out low-quality documents according to a pre-set accuracy threshold.
SOA-ready solution
Recognition Server delivers ready-to-use Web Service interface and can be used as OCR Web Service in a service-oriented architecture.
