Before there were the web service interfaces, 3rd parties could integrate to Cinegy Archive via the Cinegy MAM COM Objects. This provided a fast, efficent method for developement, and was the preferred mechanism for both 1st and 3rd party integration.

However, the current recommended model for communication is via the more flexible web services (Cinegy Archive Services). This documentation is provided for customers that have already produced an integration with this older model - we do not recommend any new projects are started using this interface (we are not using these interfaces internally for new work either - CAS is the future!).
