Overview
DB2® Content Manager Standard Edition V8.3 provides a new entry-level content management solution for small and medium-sized businesses. Sharing common code with DB2 Content Manager Enterprise Edition, this new offering is initially available on the iSeries(TM) server platform for i5/OS(TM).
With DB2 Content Manager Standard Edition V8.3, organizations can manage a single, common repository for all types of content, improve productivity across the entire organization, and speed the delivery of business content, where and when it is needed.
The graphical workflow builder within the system administration client enables business users to define document-routing processes. Document-routing functions include decision points, actions, action lists, parallel routing, and line-of-business access nodes.
Web services support provides a self-contained, self-describing, modular Web services interface to use within your applications, with other Web services, or in complex business processes to seamlessly access items stored in DB2 Content Manager. This Web services interface lets you dynamically integrate your applications with DB2 Content Manager, regardless of the programming language they were written in or the platform on which they run.
The XML schema mapping utility simplifies the process of defining the DB2 Content Manager schema to support incoming XML documents adhering to specific XML schemas. After the mapping is generated, XML documents adhering to the mapped XML schema may be captured, shredded, stored, and managed in DB2 Content Manager automatically, with no human interaction.
