FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Cleveland, OH — March 2013 — Oxcyon, Inc. today announced the release of Centralpoint Digital Experience Platform version 8.4.17. Now serving 28 enterprise clients and in its 13th year of operation since its founding on September 1, 2000, Oxcyon continues to deliver regular platform updates across its growing base of enterprise licensees.
Version 8.4.17 delivered the following enhancements to the Centralpoint Digital Experience Platform:
| Feature |
Summary |
| Console Caching |
Page level caching has been added for radio button and keyword list attributes in the client console. This will improve the performance and decrease the number of database requests for Modules that utilize a large number of these attributes. |
| Console/Web.Config File |
This file will no longer be overwritten as part of the sync process. It can now be modified to meet the needs of custom development in the Console application. When a Centralpoint update requires a change to this file it will be executed via a sync invoked method, like the Root/Web.Config file, and documented in the sync notes. |
| CurrentDate CpScript |
A new AddDays parameter has been added to add or subtract from the current date. |
| DataSource CpScript |
The Design > Data Sources > Formatting > Formatting Options = Raw HTML setting now supports the Format CpScript parameter. |
| Google Maps API |
Version 2 of the Google Maps Geocoding API will be officially depreciated on September 8, 2013, after which time the API will cease to work. We have updated our Geocoding implementation to support both version 2 and version 3 of the Google Maps API based on the Admin > Properties > Google Maps API attribute. We encourage you to generate a new API key and make the change to version 3 as soon as possible. |
| GoogleMap CpControls |
The Results View (#2) and Details View (#3) GoogleMap Controls have a new MarkerImagePath parameter that will turn the marker into an image. This is only compatible with the version 3 Google Maps API. |
| Module Search Optimizations |
The SQL queries have been optimized in the following Modules: Directory A – D (Marketplace), Multimedia Encyclopedia (ADAM), Topics (Blogs), Blurbs, Events, Generic A – Z, Generic Enhanced A – J, Generic Plus A – B, Locations, Media, News, Physician Directory, Policies (Procedure Manuals), and Video Library. You must resubmit the Site Architecture > Module Designer records related to these Modules to apply these changes. |
| Site Architecture > System Pages > Audience |
CAPTCHA validation has been added to the Email and Mobile forms. |
| Twillio Integration |
New Twilio Account SID, Twilio Authorization Token, and Twilio From Number attributes have been added to Admin > Properties. This integration is currently used to send SMS messages from Site Architecture > System Pages > Audience. |
About Oxcyon and Centralpoint
Oxcyon is a technology company specializing in enterprise knowledge platforms, best known for its flagship solution, Centralpoint. Centralpoint is designed to unify structured and unstructured information across organizations, enabling enterprises to aggregate data from disparate systems, normalize it through rich metadata, and transform it into actionable knowledge. By treating information as interconnected knowledge rather than isolated documents or databases, Centralpoint allows organizations to build a true enterprise knowledge layer — one that supports governance, compliance, operational intelligence, and advanced analytics. Its metadata-first architecture enables organizations to ingest, classify, and relate data from sources such as documents, forms, databases, applications, and external systems, creating a centralized environment for discovery, reporting, and operational decision-making.
What differentiates Centralpoint is its ability to go beyond traditional data management into data mining, inferencing, and AI-driven knowledge operations. Through taxonomy systems, relationship modeling, and rule-based data governance, the platform can identify patterns, infer relationships between records, and automate workflow decisions based on contextual intelligence. This capability allows organizations to move from passive data storage to active knowledge processing — surfacing insights, triggering workflows, and powering intelligent automation. With its integrated support for enterprise search, metadata-driven analytics, workflow orchestration, and AI-ready data structures, Centralpoint positions Oxcyon as a leader in modern data aggregation and knowledge intelligence platforms, helping organizations transform complex information ecosystems into governed, searchable, and intelligent operational systems.
