With a company’s digital content increasing dramatically everyday, a need for digital asset management in an accessible and scalable format is essential.

An XML content server is today’s XML management solution. Enterprises are discovering that they need a tool to unlock all of their content in an efficient and streamlined way without spending a ton of money and time trying to create a way to do it.

Companies who already have files and files of usable content have a difficult time accessing their information because their older versions will not talk to their newer ones and their information is stored in a gamut of styles such as PDFs, PowerPoint and images to Excel spreadsheets and word processed documents.

Recently, new content management solutions have evolved to help organizations take control of their content with new content applications built onto Service Oriented Architectures, SOA, transforming the way organizations deal with enormous content bases.


With the introduction of the Internet and XML language, organizations are using XML content and creating XML content everyday. With that, organizations need to have a searchable system within their own enterprise that allows access to all of their content and the ability to transform all of that data into XML without the need to create a DTD or XML schema.

The solution is an XML content server with XQuery enterprise search capabilities. XML content servers allow companies to transfer terabytes worth of content bases into XML. With this new XML management technology, enterprises can perform XQuery search into their XQuery engine - like an Internet search engine digs through files from the world’s postings, an enterprise search retrieves files from within the enterprise’s own database.

Furthermore, XQuery allows high level programming language to be entered into the enterprise search, unlike basic Internet search engines.

Whats more, the enterprise is able to retrieve exact matches of text or data or images only related to the XQuery search, not lists and lists of possible matches like an Internet search engine. This new XML management is beneficial for all employees of a business.


Developers can perform queries into the XQuery engine and find code that they can then reuse and repurpose into another product or format.

Publishers and producers can find completed written works and repurpose and reformat them into new products that can in turn, become a new source of profit.


Businesses are finding that this new Digital Asset Management style allows them to display more of their organization online where they were unable to display it before.

Also, with this new digital asset management design, enterprises can learn from their employees by seeing what employees are querying and use that new information to create new content applications and address new ways of content delivery, and present that exact information they are looking for.


Finally, there is a way for a content heavy organization looking for a way to have content management and content control to easily access hidden content and create new ways of increasing profit.
