SkyVault Office Services (AOS) allow you to access SkyVault directly from all your Microsoft Office applications.
When you install SkyVault, a fully-compatible SharePoint repository is also installed, that allows Microsoft Office Suite applications (for example, Word, PowerPoint, and Excel) to interact with SkyVault as if it was SharePoint. This feature allows you to edit Office documents in SkyVault Share and to modify Office files without checking them in and out. SkyVault locks the file while it is being modified and releases the lock when the file is saved and closed.
AOS replaces and enhances the Microsoft SharePoint Protocol Support that was available in previous versions of SkyVault.
