BACKGROUND
The Edgar Cayce Foundation was created to preserve the complete body of work of Edgar Cayce, including lectures, writings and other records. They are a growing resource for researchers and writers, and maintain a membership base that has access to many of these resources via the Internet.
REQUIREMENTS
The Edgar Cayce Foundation needed a parner to host their growing collection of websites, databases and vast amount of content, and provide .NET developer expertise on-demand. Access to a continual supply of bandwidth and disk space was needed to support their growing web presence.
IMPLEMENTATION
Solutrix placed the Edgar Cayce Foundation's web presence on a load-balanced web farm. Provisioning requests are routed through network operations and quickly processed, providing the Edgar Cayce Foundation with effortless additions to their hosting capacity.
INITIATIVES
-
Membership access to Edgar Cayce's reading, a database of over 28,000 pages, was streamlined.
-
A Google search appliance was installed to further enhance membership access to the content collection.
-
Solutrix developed an application to provide a a daily email service known as "Thought for the Day". Once a website visitor has signed up, an application automatically sends them a new thought each night so they have it first thing in the morning.
-
A Windows Media server was provided to efficiently host a growing collection of members-only video files.
