SAMS & SAMS Rapid
Using SAMS, Semantico has successfully designed and implemented access management systems on behalf of many major international publishers, and manages the access control of some of the world’s busiest and most successful product sites. The largest SAMS deployment handles in excess of 5 million authentication requests per month, and in excess of 20 million API requests.
Growth of its large installed base has been aided by SAMS’s flexibility in covering access models for journals, e-books, reference works, directories and scholarly publishing.
This powerful, road-tested technology:
- Maximises returns
- Supports emerging online business models
- Integrates simply with third-party systems
- Provides a self-service web interface
- Offers usage and management reports as standard (ICOLC)
Together with the Semantico Information Publishing Platform (SIPP) SAMS offers a complete solution for online publishing.
Access solutions to fit your budget
Like SIPP, SAMS also comes in three flavours:
- SAMS Rapid
- SAMS Rapid+
- SAMS Classic
For limited budgets, SAMS Rapid provides a streamlined implementation that will fulfil most of your access control and subscription management needs with no compromise in quality, reliability, future-proofing, flexibility or user-friendliness. And as the name suggests, it’s fast. SAMS rapid can cut your time-to-market from months down to weeks.
If you need more bells and whistles – such as Shibboleth authentication as well as advanced management reporting for Counter and Sushi – here’s a fuller-featured version of SAMS that still remains remarkably budget-friendly, while cutting the timescale of delivery substantially.
