K2 Version 4.5 Released
What is new in K2 Version 4.5
Both K2 blackpearl 4.5 and K2 blackpoint 4.5 now feature a new Web-based K2 Designer for SharePoint and Office-like K2 Studio designer for faster and more intuitive application design. K2 blackpearl’s other application designer, K2 Designer for Visual Studio now supports Visual Studio 2008 SP1.
Other new or updated platform highlights:
- K2 Inline Functions allow users to build complex logic and calculations with simple drag-and-drop tools.
- K2 View Flow is improved to give users a graphical, real-time view into the status of any step in the process. For every action taken along the path of the workflow, audit information is available so users know what decisions were made and who made them.
- The K2 ADO.NET Data Provider, K2 SmartObjects and runtime components have been enhanced, so complexity is reduced and developers can build more sophisticated .NET applications that make use of data across systems and organizations.
- K2 Process Portals are SharePoint sites that provide a one-stop location for access to information and management of processes. Reports included on the site provide deep visibility into process performance and can help uncover bottlenecks and inefficiencies.
Microsoft 2010 Product Support
Microsoft will be releasing Visual Studio 2010 shortly, with other 2010 products to follow in the coming months. K2 is committed to provide support for specific 2010 products within 90 days of their release. These products include:
- SharePoint 2010
- Visual Studio 2010
- SQL Server 2008 R2
To find out more about the new enhancements, visit the K2 blackpoint website or contact Deltascheme. We recommend K2 for workflow/BPM applications because of it’s deep integration with Microsoft SharePoint.
