The IBM WebSphere Translation Server for Multiplatforms is a machine translation (MT) offering that can help companies remove language as a barrier to global communication and e-commerce. WebSphere Translation Server (WTS) enables enterprises to provide Web pages, e-mail messages and chat conversations in multiple languages, in real time. Specifically designed for enterprise use, the WebSphere Translation Server allows companies to leverage their existing Web infrastructure to provide content to users in their native language, at a fraction of the cost of professional translation.Based on IBM machine translation technology, WebSphere Translation Server is designed for scalability on multiple platforms. WTS can run on a dedicated server, using RMI and Java protocol to communicate with the WebSphere Application Server. Web page HTML content can also be translation-enabled to support HTTP servers from Netscape, Apache, Microsoft or IBM.
