SDL, the leading provider of Global Information Management (GIM) solutions, has announced the acquisition of XyEnterprise®, an award-winning leader in XML Component Content Management (CCM) and Dynamic Publishing solutions. With the integration of XyEnterprise products, SDL offers the most advanced technologies in the market for sharing and publishing structured component-based content.
Since the acquisition of Trisoft in 2008, SDL has seen a growing demand for technologies that manage, reuse and deliver product information across a company's base of global customers, including everything from service manuals to user documentation. Moving into XML standards such as DITA and S1000D, companies are seeking ways to create, translate and publish structured content once and share that information across their global organizations and customer base.

With this acquisition, SDL is creating a merged business unit of XyEnterprise and SDL Trisoft that will be called "SDL XySoftTM". SDL will continue to support both XyEnterprise and SDL Trisoft customers and products, as the R&D organization moves to a shared component development model.
With the acquisition of XyEnterprise, SDL significantly expands its product offering and technical capabilities.
This acquisition brings:
Two powerful Dynamic Publishing capabilities, XPPTM (XML Professional Publisher) and LiveContentTM
Enhanced support for XML standards (S1000D and DITA)
Expanded R&D and technical services capacity
Tight integration into SDL's GIM technologies, giving SDL the industry's only end-to-end solution for managing technical and consumer information from authoring to translation and publishing
