My Presentation From Gilbane DC - Everything You Wanted To Know About MOSS 2007…

 

CIMG0256 I spoke on a panel at the Gilbane conference on content technologies the week before last in Washington, DC. While at the conference I attended and enjoyed the opening keynote, “Gurus Debate The Future of Content Technologies” this morning. The panel was moderated by Tony Byrne from CMS Watch. The panelists included:

The following are some of the key points from the keynote:

  • Some of the biggest risks to content management project success include user adoption and recognizing that there will be political or business changes required
  • Ann Rockley made the point there is an opportunity to manage content as a strategic asset
  • All panelists agreed that by 2012 most core capabilities will be in the infrastructure platform

Later that day I presented on a panel entitled “Everything you wanted to know about MOSS 2007 (but were afraid to ask)”. You can view my presentation here. Click through to my Blog site from your RSS reader to view within my Blog.

What Does The Future Hold For ECM?

I presented on the title of this post last Thursday at the AIIM National Capital Chapter breakfast meeting. I had a great time presenting my view of what the future may hold and talked about some of the clues that we may have been able to pick up at the recent AIIMexpo 2007 conference in Boston.

The meeting was very well attended (all you early risers :-) ) and the discussion and questions posed by the audience was very interesting. One of my conclusions (and this should not be a surprise to anyone) was that over the next 3-5 years the Big 3 will emerge as the primary providers of the ECM core infrastructure. As ECM technologies become more of a commodity, those Big 3; IBM, Oracle, and Microsoft will also be joined by a fourth, EMC. Although  EMC will not deliver commodity ECM infrastructure per se, they will remain a significant influencer in the marketplace because of their hardware footprint and company size.

One of the other big predictions I made was that “effectively managing information becomes strategic”. I am hopeful that this prediction comes true! I believe that organizations cannot afford for this prediction not to become true if they are going to effectively leverage one of the most strategic assets they have. I also presented my new concept for how this goal and vision could become reality. I will outline this in another post.

For those who attended the breakfast event last week, I really enjoyed our time together and as usual I learned something from my audience. That is one of the reasons I really enjoy speaking at these events. You can access the slides here. Or you can click through to the BetterECM site to view the slides online.

BetterECM Upcoming Events

The next couple of weeks are pretty busy. Tomorrow I am participating on a panel discussion called: “Point/Counterpoint: Microsoft vs. Open Source” at the Greater Baltimore Tech Council. The event will be held at the Holiday Inn Select, 2004 Greenspring Drive. Timonium, MD.

After that, I am co-presenting with Connie Moore, VP & Research Director at Forrester for an “invitation only” Executive Roundtable event at the Baltimore Ruth’s Chris Steak House. The event is entitled: “BPM: Realizing Your Microsoft Investments Through Process Automation”.

Finally, come join me for breakfast, next Thursday morning, May 10, 2007 for the National Capital Chapter - AIIM monthly event. My presentation, “What Does the Future Hold for ECM?” will look at the future of ECM by reviewing some of the clues I observed at the 2007 AIIMexpo in Boston last month. I hope to see a great turnout and look forward to a spirited discussion about the future of ECM. The event will be held at the Key Bridge Marriott, 1401 Lee Highway, Arlington, VA, Phone: (703) 524-6400.

Keeping Your Content Secure Everywhere: My AIIM 2007 Presentation

I gave the following presentation yesterday at AIIMexpo 2007 in Boston: Keeping Your Content Secure Everywhere: Even Outside The ECM Repository.

There were some great questions and I enjoyed the discussion we had during the session. One question came up that was telling for the ECM and content management industry. One of the audience asked if there were any industry standards around rights management or enterprise digital rights management. Unfortunately, I had to answer that there were not. I think everyone in the room concluded that this is an area that of interoperability standards that needs to  be addressed.

Note: For RSS only readers, click through to the post and you can view the slides within the BetterECM post using the SlideShare viewer that WordPress now supports. Really cool :-)

Thanks to everyone who attended.

Oh yeah, now you can download the slides from SlideShare.net. Very cool.
