Search applications company Endeca Technologies has signed a partnership with Open Text, a global provider in enterprise content management solutions. The collaboration will see Endeca's Digital Asset Navigator solution being delivered on Open Text Digital Media Group's enterprise media management solution.
The joint offering is designed to enable media, publishing and retail organisations to cut costs and streamline operations by leveraging existing digital assets.
John Andrews, vice-president of industry solutions for Endeca, says: “By combining the powerful workflow and digital asset management capabilities of Open Text media management with the search and discovery capabilities of Endeca's Digital Asset Navigator, creative personnel can gain far superior visibility into existing assets available for reuse, saving tens of millions of dollars.”
Endeca's Digital Asset Navigator integrates related data from Open Text's enterprise Digital Asset Management solution, as well as databases, file servers, enterprise applications and other source systems, providing a 360-view of information relevant to digital asset reuse. The joint solution also ensures that users only have access to data they are approved to use.
According to Damian Saccocio, vice-president of product marketing for the Open Text Digital Media Group, the partnership improves the solution's speed of development and flexibility, which he says is attributed to the robust set of open standard interfaces that both Open Text and Endeca support.
Saccocio adds: “We look forward to further implementations at other organisations seeking to maximise their media investments and optimise workflows.”
