XML Content Management Made Easier

Although the XML market has so far been focused mostly on data management and Web services, XML also works well for content management. With the right tools, it's a natural for tracking information created by humans, including the contents of product manuals, technical material, Web sites, and program documentation.

Blast says Xmetal Reviewer's real-time collaboration feature is unique, along with its ability to work with native XML files. The product includes integration for Word documents; integration with external applications can be done through APIs on the XMetaL Reviewer server.

According to John Holden, a senior research analyst with the Butler Group, features of the product that make it stand out include the Web-based user interface and its embedded contextual collaboration. That last feature, Holden says, can help make XML authoring part of a company's overall business processes.

Unified Business Intelligence

For example, structured data enables carmakers to determine when a warranty repair is made, what was broken, what model was affected and the age of the vehicle repaired. But, by analyzing the unstructured data in the comments field of a warranty claim, the manufacturer can identify the set of circumstances that may have caused a problem. Reading through thousands of warranty claims is not feasible, but using a text analytics tool, the manufacturer can analyze all of this unstructured data to pull out potential root causes for warranty repairs. The combined result, in this case, is that the carmaker knows what repairs were made, when, how old the vehicle was and what the root cause was.

To effectively realize the benefit of integrating structured and unstructured data, BI must include an integrated view of structured and unstructured data. Advances in standards, hardware, software and storage are making this integrated view possible. The relational leaders such as IBM, Microsoft and Oracle are already raising the stakes by offering better support for unstructured content. With its acquisition of Venetica in August of 2004, IBM Software Group's Data Management unit extended its access to unstructured data sources. For its part, Oracle provides enhanced support unstructured content management with Oracle 10g. XML's emerging prevalence along with better, faster text analysis tools make tagging unstructured data and integrating it into structured data sets a reality.
