Document Summary

In the broadest sense, content is property: often closely related to intellectual property (a form of creative endeavor that can be protected through a trademark, patent, copyright, industrial design, or integrated circuit topography) Expanding volume of content and the growing number of formats in which it"s provided can make it difficult for individuals and corporations to effectively utilize that content. Challenge in content management is indexing or cataloguing the right information, processing it and storing it, and then getting it to the right person in the right format at the right time. Cms"s have evolved: now actively seek out documents located across an organization and automatically manage access to this content, provides increased organization for a wider range of a corporation"s data assets, handle document archiving. If the structure of the list is simple enough, there"s no need to use database technology. Lists that involve a single theme can be stored in a spreadsheet.
