OpenText Content Server Management
Everything You Need to Know
The PC Mag encyclopedia defines a content server as ‘a computer that stores content for the Internet.’ In this context, ‘content’ refers to articles, media, metadata, and other information.
Aside from storing content, content servers also serve such content to applications. These applications, in turn, provide a structure, or ‘interface,’ that users can interact with so that they can consume, edit, and otherwise use the content as they deem fit.
Organizations these days are drowning in ever-growing amounts of information that need to be presented to clients, employees, and business partners. As such, an organized and efficient way to locate and manage content is necessary.
Without a content services solution that is both efficient and secure, business processes can be hampered by security concerns and inefficient sharing and storing of information. Organizations have to ensure efficient ways to store content and work with it in an increasingly digital world. Otherwise, employees run the risk of being less productive due to insufficient content solutions.
Content server management addresses these concerns by ensuring the availability and security of information across an enterprise. Content management services have become particularly indispensable post-pandemic when organizations were challenged to adopt remote and hybrid work setups. Driven by this challenge across all industries, robust content management services were the key to most organizations’ resilience and productivity amidst the crisis.
Typically, a content server follows an object-oriented model. Everything is stored as an object in what is called a repository. Content server management includes the following:
Enterprise content management tools allow information to be accessed quickly and securely whenever needed. Remote and hybrid teams alike do not need to worry about slow downloads when they need to access information. Content creation is made more structured and organized, and an efficient, secure system supports collaboration.
Good content management solutions allow seamless integration with other business process applications and tools. As such, necessary information remains accessible across teams and organizations according to each one’s requirements. Data silos and mismatched information are also avoided, increasing accuracy and efficiency on all fronts.
Content server management allows for the control of information based on risk and value. End users who do not have the rank or clearance to access high-level and high-risk information need not be given access to it. Retention policies, as well as governance compliance mandates, can also be automatically applied.
The OpenText Content Suite, for example, allows for efficient content management throughout the content’s lifecycle. Information is managed across an enterprise, beginning with capture, then archiving, and disposition.
OpenText adheres to the latest data privacy and data governance best practices, thereby reducing risk for organizations. All an organization needs to worry about is focusing on productivity and growth with the information at hand.
OpenText is a cloud-native technology, which means that deployments, upgrades, and new features integration is simple and seamless. Some of its features are:
The user interface is easy to use. It supports both individual work and collaboration with:
Seamlessly integrates and supports the following applications:
Have the freedom to choose among available cloud models for public, private, or hybrid deployments. Flexible cloud solutions allow organizations to manage and protect data effectively.
Important historical content can be archived via a secure and centralized solution. Such content can, later on, be retrieved effortlessly via search, no matter how large the archive.
Extend the functionality of content through Hightail and OpenText Core Share’s mobile and cloud capabilities. Now, information can be gathered and accessed even in previously difficult to coordinate environments (supplier and contractor ecosystems, remote fieldwork, etc.)
Data and documents can be captured from multiple sources – electronic files, paper, and other sources – to be transformed to digital formats ready to be stored into ECM solutions and other business processes.
