EMC drives free content management

EMC is offering free, full-function developer editions of its enterprise content management (ECM) products and releasing two new online communities dedicated to EMC Documentum and XML developers, states PR Newswire.

Through the Documentum and XML communities, EMS says that developers will have open access to resources that includes code samples, tutorials, full product documentation and introductory guides.

Whitney Tidmarsh, chief marketing officer for content management and archiving division at EMC, says: "Through our various online communities, developers can take full advantage of free tools and content as well as work together and foster the growth of the Documentum community."

Sitecore has released a Web content management survey which found that the number of organisations deploying Web 2.0 technologies increased by over 250%, reports CMS Critic.

The survey was conducted over 83 US Web content management customers, showing that Microsoft's SharePoint had a 100% growth rate in portal to public Web site integrations.

While content sharing is a stated goal of many Web projects, to see such a high growth rate of actual implementations indicates the trend is now established.

Ingeniux has rolled out Cartella, which it claims to be the first unified social content management platform, combining social networking, analytics and Web 2.0 tools into one solution, says KM World.

Cartella includes modules for managing documents, wikis, blogs, rich media and social networking.

The solution is a Web 2.0 platform, featuring group, role and user permissions and access, team collaboration, online workspaces, notifications and analytics as well as customer collaboration and rich media for publishing videos and podcasts.
