The FileNet Integrated Document Management (IDM) products consists of a family of client applications and Imaging and Electronic Document Management (EDM) services. These services provide robust facilities for document creation, update, and deletion along with document search capabilities. Document properties are stored in an underlying relational database (RDBMS); document content is stored in files or in a specialized optical disk hierarchical storage manager. FileNet Corporation's Visual WorkFlo® and Ensemble® workflow products can be utilized in conjunction with FileNet's IDM technologies to automate production and ad hoc business processes respectively.
This talk will discuss how Integrated Document Management requirements affect an IDM system's usage of a RDBMS. The IDM requirement areas that will be discussed include Schema and Schema Evolution, Security, Events and Workflow, Distributed Access and Manageability.
