ORLANDO, Fla – Aras®, leading Microsoft enterprise open source software solution provider, today announced at SolidWorks World 2009 that it has forged a technology partnership with Actify, Inc., the global leader in product data collaboration solutions. The partnership will provide the SpinFire visualization products embedded in every download of the advanced PLM software suite from Aras to deliver seamless 3D and 2D file translation, publishing, and distribution.
