Organizations can now try Alfresco (http://www.opensourcegroups.com/www.alfresco.com) Community Edition 3.2 with minimum effort and provide a world class content management environment on Ubuntu Server Edition (http://www.ubuntu.com/products/whatIsubuntu/serveredition)for free.

Alfresco Software today announced that Alfresco Community Edition 3.2 is available as an easy to install package from the Ubuntu software repositories. The Ubuntu and Alfresco communities can now easily get up and running with Alfresco Community Edition.

"Ubuntu Server Edition is the most popular Linux distribution amongst the Alfresco user community. We see many open source community members looking to use a combination of Alfresco as their content management solution and Ubuntu as their chosen operating system," said Martin Musierowicz, VP Alliances, Alfresco Software. "Alfresco's approach to enterprise content management is to combine ease of use with a broad range of features without the complexity of proprietary solutions. This matches Ubuntu's approach to delivering a simple server environment."

Using Ubuntu’s Package Manager functionality, users can now more easily select and download new software from Ubuntu's partner repository. As they have been pre-built and tested, each download comes with the necessary drivers and dependencies to let users hit the ground running.

Alfresco is the open source Enterprise Content Management (ECM) system that includes Document Management, Web Content Management, Collaboration, Records Management and Image Management. Alfresco has seen major adoption of its open source ECM system throughout the world, with over 1.7 million downloads of Alfresco Community Edition, which is a free-to-download, free-to-use version developed on an open source stack.
