FARIO is now fully implemented on a leading edge web-services platform using IBM Websphere application server and IBM Web services toolkit. This means that although FARIO comes with a browser interface, customers of Graphic Data can access all the document storage, retrieval, digitisation etc requests via their line of business systems by calling the industry standard SOAP and UDDI compliant services exposed by the FARIO infrastructure. The FARIO system was specifically designed and constructed to scale to very large numbers and is intended to have the capability of supporting 100 000 users and hundreds of millions of documents.See https:\\www.fario.net\ and www.graphihcdata.co.uk
