EMC’s Faulty Perception of Content Management
While at the Monktoberfest last week, I had the luck to run into some people from EMC. Not just any folk from EMC, they were from “core”, the storage side of the business. After convincing them that I knew enough about EMC to have a real conversation, we discussed Documentum and the Information Intelligence Group… Continue reading

Collaboration, Just a Documentum Side Effect
Last year I posted an article on how CenterStage was the Latest ex-Collaboration Tool from EMC. Turns out I understated the case. EMC isn’t going to be building a collaboration tool, at least not one purposely built to encourage collaboration. In many ways the announcements at this year’s EMC World just reaffirmed the direction set… Continue reading

License Audits…Enforcing Ethics
Ethics. In the consulting business, the perception of your level of ethics can break you. I haven’t seen a lot people gain work because of their perceived ethics, but I have seen several lose work. We all like to assume that the person across the table, phone, or email will act in a fair and… Continue reading

Where in the World is Pie?
As you may have noticed, I’ve been a little inactive lately. If you are even more observant, you may have noticed a few references to the fact that I was very busy in August and September. After all, CMIS was finally released last month and I haven’t even posted an analysis on how it measures… Continue reading

Sailing with EMC’s Magellan
I’ve been debating on whether to talk about Magellan or SharePoint next. It was a heck of a decision, but I quickly resolved it when I decided to do both. I pulled out my notes, did a little research, and remembered the disclaimer. This is unreleased software. Things may change before the Magellan Beta, much… Continue reading
