📅 - divine, inc., a software and managed service provider, today announced a partnership with FT.com, the Financial Times' on-line operation. divine (divine.com) powers its FT Pro subscriber service, a global news portal.
FT.com was developed using divine's Professional Services. The divine Software Services' NewsMachine application was tailored to give the site its unique appearance. The FT Pro application is managed at dedicated divine hosting facilities.
Now, FT.com will use divine's software, professional, and managed services.
?FT.com is among the best examples of describing the extended enterprise in practice,? said Charles Barnick, Managing Director for divine UK. ?
?Historically, launching a service such as FT Pro would require the coordination of several different vendors, each coming to the project with different approaches. For the customer, this approach means more development time and greater cost. divine's philosophy, to offer all these services under one roof, cuts through these barriers, achieving the objectives with better integration from back office to end-user.''

Weeding through a multitude of news stories, the discerning online interface keeping the user abreast with business information relevant to their needs, based on requests of company names, subjects, industries and regions.

?With FT Pro and our other services, such as AskFT and FT Mobile, we've succeeded in creating new revenue streams for the company,? he said.
