Enterprise Content Management-A partnership between Business and IT

摘要

The continuous growth of information Presents a challenge to IT organizations and, if it remains unchecked, will become a crisis that impairs the ability of IT to meet the strategic and business needs of the organization. Information, including structured data (typically stored in relational databases) and unstructured content (stored in file systems, content management systems, email servers, and more), is growing between 60 and 200 percent per year and is generating a number of negative side effects: storage costs draining IT budgets, eDiscovery costs paralleling the explosion in growth, and employee productivity limited by time wasted searching for information that is often never found and ends up being recreated.
