hive is a system for electronic archiving. The main features are the simple user interface and the fast full-text search. The server-side processing requires no document scanners or scanning workstations.
construction
Hive itself uses open source components in most areas . Both the background processing and the user interface are completely developed in the PHP scripting language . The documents are stored in the file system with all converted additional files. The MySQL database system with MyISAM as the storage engine is used to store data such as metadata , full text and document properties . The result of a hash function is always used as the storage key .
properties
No installation is required on the client side. The web interface offers all the functions required for use and administration. Processing such as document separation , OCR and automatic keywording takes place on the server . Documents are stored without a hierarchy . The retrieval takes place via categories, additional information ( metadata ) and full text. The search uses the full text search engine of the MyISAM storage engine.
