Documentum, Not Going Away Without a Fight
As I fly back from EMC World, I am left pondering the future of EMC in the Content Management space. This is a space that is undergoing an overhaul. There is a surge of innovation which we haven’t seen since the nineties. The cloud is becoming a more important part of the equation for organizations… Continue reading

Dreaming of the Documentum Community and Conferences
I had a dream that I was at the upcoming Documentum Developer Conference and TechSet next month here in the DC area. (Seriously, I did. Was a little strange, even for me.)

The End of an Era
In my last post I mentioned that I have been very busy of late. Well, part of that work has been working towards this…I am leaving the world of consulting. That’s right, after spending almost my entire career being a hired gun, I am choosing sides and becoming a “client”. More than that, but I… Continue reading

Looking Back on Pie’s 2011 Predictions

Documentum Patch Process, Adding a Touch of Common Sense
I haven’t been writing a lot as I’ve been going crazy at work and nothing has jumped out at me as time sensitive. I’ve starting writing some “expert” blogs for AIIM on Enterprise Content Management, their label, so you can get a small fix over in the AIIM Community. It is the summer and things… Continue reading

Oracle Buys FatWire, Now What?
If you missed it, Oracle bought FatWire yesterday. Whether or not this was a shock depends on who you ask. In fact, I suspect that the tension of the sale has been rippling though events for several months. This acquisition raises several questions, such as, does anyone care, that is, outside of the FatWire install… Continue reading

EMC Goes Mobile, Creating a Redundant Déjà Vu Experience
One of the strangest things to happen at EMC World was the announcement by EMC of a mobile client for the iPad. It is scheduled to arrive in Q3 of 2011 (I made them commit to a specific Q3). Some people even said July 15, but I’d be more than happy with an arrival before… Continue reading
