This new level of cloud support will allow Managed Service Providers to extend their offerings to include the Enterprise Service Desk.
Further extending support for open standards LiveTime’s new platform extends its reach not only into new cloud platforms but also new storage engines. This includes support for all major databases as before as well as new distributed databases such as Google BigTable, Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) and Apache HBase (Hadoop). This shift will allow Managed Service Providers to offer an Enterprise Service Desk, on their architecture of choice, along with other services being delivered to their customers.
Utilizing HTML5 standards, this new platform requires no browser plugins, no ActiveX components and no client downloads and supports every major browser from Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Opera through to Explorer 7 or later. This new architecture will also feature RESTful Web Services as the primary API for Web Service integrations.

Out of the box enterprise integration with Authentication, Asset and Inventory Management, and Event Management has enabled customers such as Lockheed Martin, Verizon, Pricewaterhouse Coopers, and Wellpoint to implement LiveTime within a matter of weeks, streamlining the typically lengthy on-boarding process.
