I was more puzzled and really donno what the meaning of WebDAV in Documentum is and its usage in Documentum. Then immediately he asked another question Is there a place or Dictionary kind of stuff for checking the meaning of the terms and terminologies used in Documentum.

Why not? I started searching in Google for the same. Then we have searched a number of websites, blogs and help files for DA, Webtop and etc and consolidated the glossary of the terms used in Documentum and their meaning.

There is a wide ranging and somewhat loose definition of what constitutes the concept and application of Enterprise Content Management (ECM). This is the first part of a series I am working on to describe ECM. This first post will focus on the highest level of what ECM is and does.

Why ECM? The graphic below depicts a very simple scenario that I developed while working at Kofax and FileNet in the mid-90’s. Are simple to describe yet must be robust enough to interoperate with and to provide key elements to a successful ECM solution. Final Words: ECM is not a panacea.
