Content Stores
Managing the Mine
l Why manage content?
– For security, survivability and due diligence
l But it’s getting harder …
– Archival discipline challenged by the dynamic web
l Direct content management using either
– Hands-on management of content stores, or
– Ubiquitous archival agent with redirection to central store or
– Commercial content management solutions
l But …often not politically or technically feasible in an organization
Indirect content management by catalog
– Stores may or may not be managed, but
– Catalog knows what is in the store
– Catalog can track when it disappears
– Synchronization of inserts, deletes and updates an issue.
