K2 for SharePoint - Introduction
K2 provides several optional components that can be used with a SharePoint environment. The K2 for SharePoint components provide a Web-based designer that is hosted within the SharePoint environment and a K2 Worklist Web part. SharePoint wizards allow documents, lists, users and sites to be used or created based on a process. The K2 for SharePoint components also provide integration with SharePoint Server-specific functionality, such as Records management, Publishing, BCS, Search and InfoPath Forms Services.
