Web 2.0

As business embraces Web 2.0 technologies, enterprise content management (ECM) solutions must enable these new, flexible user paradigms while continuing to ensure organizational control, security, and compliance.

The EMC Documentum family of products provides scalability, services orientation, and virtual repositories to help enterprises maintain security while harnessing the power of Web 2.0.

New ways of working

The fast-growing trends of individual participation and social networking are bringing new creativity and dynamism to the enterprise.

Documentum supports these new ways of working by leveraging visualization tools such as Adobe Flex® and AJAX technologies, guided navigation, team workspaces, dynamic filtering and screen configurations, and federated search.

New elements of risk

Web 2.0 technologies also present the enterprise with new security, management, and legal discovery challenges, due to the proliferation of content formats and the increasing fragmentation of content.

Documentum's compliance infrastructure gives you the flexibility to meet these new challenges. With Documentum you can implement a consistent set of retention and security policies across a broad range of content types and applications, and even beyond your organization's borders.

And, Documentum helps you conform to industry regulations by applying good-governance practices to content retention, records management, legal hold, integrated content archiving, and other content services.

New strains on the infrastructure

As Web 2.0 technologies drive demands for scalability, your underlying infrastructure must become more flexible so it can accommodate a proliferation of content, fast-changing application requirements, and newly emerging content types.

Documentum helps you meet these demands by providing robust, flexible support for today's Web 2.0 information infrastructure requirements, as well as additional capabilities to support high-volume transaction and archive environments.

In addition, Documentum provides XML capabilities so you can manage XML documents and components, perform searches and queries on XML content, dynamically deliver XML material for publishing, and transform XML content for repurposing and personalized publishing.
