Intro to DocDB Andreas Jansson 2011/2/2
Different needs Share (temporary, private) Document (save/retrieve/search/find) Control (document decisions) The likelyhood of something being uploaded to a document management system is inversely proportional to the effort it takes. This is especially important for things that do not formally need to be saved in such a system.
Current Implementations ADU Portal (Alfresco) ESS web site (Joomla) Target portal (Plone) ESS intranet (Drupal) EDMS Catia/Dassault DocDB Homepages with manually updated files
DocDB Simple to upload Easy to upload Quick to upload Multiple ways to upload Unique document number that can be referenced Short permanent web links that can be referenced Version handling Search by author, topic, keyword, event etc distribution list (subscription Calendar Simple event management Simple document sign-off
Where to find it? (Will likely move to a more permanent location soon)
