New search options are coming for Razuna 1.4.6

by on August 1, 2011 in Digital Asset Management, Razuna

Just a short note, but we are working on brand new search options for the upcoming Razuna 1.4.6 – open source digital asset management - release. Sure, we could hold it off for a major new release number, but thought we rather bring you these new options rather sooner then later.

The new search options will contain:

  • Custom advanced search option
  • Search for single metadata fields
  • Update to the latest search components
  • more goodies that will be revealed in a future post
The new search options will be made available the next release candidate of 1.4.6 and of course in the final Razuna 1.4.6.

Razuna 1.4.6 Release Candidate 1

by on July 23, 2011 in Digital Asset Management, Razuna

Greetings! The first release candidate for Razuna 1.4.6 is now available. We encourage everyone to download and test this release – please though, not on your production server unless you’re extra adventurous.

We’ve handled a number of issues since 1.4.5, including an additional mobile view version (to make your self hosted version compatible with the Razuna Google Chrome Extension!), the option to download assets directly in the folder view, updated the application server core bringing Lucene 3.3 to the game, updated SQL scripts for better performance and last but not least, updated API calls to enable metadata read and write and manipulation of folders from the API. Additionally, we fixed a couple of issues that cropped up after the 1.4.5 release.

The Razuna 1.4.6 release notes are available over in our Wiki.

We encourage everyone to test things out, so we can fix things before the final release. If you find problems, there are a few ways to let us know:

Go ahead and download Razuna 1.4.6 Release Candidate 1 now and become a part of the Digital Asset Management Revolution!

Razuna Chrome Extension: Your help is needed

by on June 20, 2011 in Digital Asset Management, Razuna

We have been hard at work here at Razuna and are about to bring you our latest Gadget –  a brand new Razuna Chrome Extension!

The Razuna Chrome Extensions lets you browse all of your digital assets right within the convenience of the Google Chrome browser. The extension is a perfect fit to access your Razuna in a quick intuitive way.

Today, we are making the first public Release Candidate available for you all to try and therefore need your help in testing the extension. If you are running Google Chrome, we emphasize that you go ahead and give the Razuna Chrome Extension a try. You can do so by simply installing it within seconds (no restart required).

Please note that currently only users with an account on our Razuna Hosted Platform are supported! Razuna self-hosted accounts will have the pleasure of using the Razuna Chrome Extension laster on as it requires a upgrade to their current Razuna 1.4.5 installations. But fear not, the update is coming real soon.

The Razuna Chrome Extensions is brought to you by the very same people that are working on the Razuna Digital Asset Management and we hope it is another way to increase your productivity with Razuna.

Razuna 1.4.5 publicly available – most trusted Open Source Digital Asset Management

by on June 15, 2011 in Digital Asset Management, Razuna

The most trusted Open Source Digital Asset Management System has a new version available now for download.

Today see’s the release of Razuna 1.4.5, containing may important new features. The version introduces “Widgets”, which is a new way to share and collaborate on digital media assets combined into a single convenient view.

Enhancements to the API include metadata improvement and extended support for embedding assets on any system.

Razuna 1.4.5 is now available as a free download at http://razuna.org. Details of the hosted Digital Asset Management options are available at http://razuna.com

London, UK June 14 2011 – Razuna Ltd today announced  the release of version 1.4.5 of its flagship product, which is a major upgrade to the world’s most used open source Digital Asset Management System. Having seen major adoption in many worldwide organizations it is both free to download and use. Razuna is based entirely on an open source technology stack and has been downloaded thousands of times since its original release.

Nitai Aventaggiato, Founder of Razuna Ltd says -  “Razuna 1.4.5 brings low cost digital asset management to every organization, and dramatically reduces the barrier to organize and collaborate on your media library, be it video, audio, images, or documents.

Our customers already enjoy the benefit of managing and accessing all of their digital asset management requirements with Razuna. With Razuna 1.4.5 we’ve made it even easier to collaborate with your clients and customers on projects”.

Delivering the best open source Digital Asset Management Solution

This release continues to build on Razuna’s history of delivering low-cost, innovative and Enterprise enabled Digital Asset Management solutions. Here are, but a few, new features available in the Razuna 1.4.5 release:

  • Widgets – Share and collaborate on your assets with the ease. Widgets allow you to publish, share and collaborate on any given folder or collection on any site by simply embedding a widget. This allows assets to be available outside of Razuna. Assets can also be displayed with either a thumbnail view or slideshow.
  • Browsing Subfolders – In line with the release of Widgets, we have also enabled browsing through subfolders in the general folder view, shared folders and within a widget. This permits users to drill into all available shared folders via collections or widgets.
  • Single Asset View - allows you to combine all assets into a single view, for convenience. Based on feedback from our customers, as more and organizations continued to move to Razuna, the need for a “unified view” was raised. For instance, you may have different versions of your assets deployed on You Tube, Vimeo, Flickr and SoundCloud or simply want to upload already converted assets to Razuna. Previously this could only be achieved by creating new “asset records”. By using the new “Additional Versions” functionality one can simply point an existing asset, either on the net or upload into Razuna. The combined, single or unified view will display not only the original asset, but all its different converted formats and version.
  • Performance Enhancements – Razuna’s codebase and Javascript libraries have undergone a complete rewrite. As a result our users will experience a tremendous performance boost, thus allowing customers to find and serve digital assets more quickly and conveniently.

How to get your very own Digital Asset Management System

Razuna is available at http://razuna.org. Customers have options to use our preconfigured Razuna Virtual Server, download the dedicated Razuna Standalone Server or a deploy to a J2EE-Server with the Razuna WAR/EAR distribution.

If you rather have a hosted Digital Asset Management solution, then Razuna is also available as a Hosted Solution over at http://razuna.com. Razuna Cloud Server is also available for teams and organizations who require a dedicated Digital Asset Management server.
