Website Translation Platform for a Global Localization Provider

OneLink is the advanced cloud-based website localization solution aiming to facilitate translators’ work and reduce IT involvement in the website localization process.

Challenges

The team was challenged with the creation of an on-page editor module that allows translators to perform the work in real-time, without the need to connect to CMS, database, or backend which shortens the cycles of internal review and testing cycles. Besides, the tool is supposed to monitor a website for updates and submit new or changed content for translation.

Features

The major app in OneLink suite is OneLink Proxy. It is an interlayer between the translated website and the original website. Proxy can translate any content on the original website. Proxy understands HTML, XML, JSON, Javascript, .Net Ajax requests.

The app logic works as follows:

The web crawlers capture text segments according to the specified rules. Engineers classify images before translation for the further processing of Proxy. This data is translated by human translators. Then, the translation rules are applied to OneLink Proxy that allows for website translation on the fly.

On top of this, there’s a console that lets engineers do admin work related to text/segments management: import, export, various transformations, and statistics.

The core features of the app include:

Hosted (SSAE 16 SOC 1 Type 2) or on-premise installation
Savings for partially matched content
Internal engineering expertise for complex sites
E-commerce and CDN support
In-context preview / editing
Electronic scissors
Content reuse online and offline
Global data centers support (US, EU, APAC)

What is more, OneLink has become the first and only fully PCI DSS certified solution which adds to security standards of customer data.

Results

The customer has got a solution that provides customers with a fast way to implement and deploy translation of their websites with minimum customer involvement in as little as 30 days. As a result, OneLink occupied the top place in the market niche of website localization solutions.
