Whether it is a streaming video, a legal document archived for
future reference, or an image of a book cover meant for distribution
to an e-tailer, the goal of Digital Asset Management (DAM) is
to get the right file in the right format to the right place at
the right time. More importantly, a DAM solution serves as a part
of the core infrastructure for any organisation, allowing it to
best use its rich media content in more flexible ways than ever
before.
How can it benefit you?
It is a set of coordinated technologies and processes that allows
the quick and efficient storage, retrieval, and reuse of the digital
files that are essential to all businesses. These digital files
may include photos, videos, audio files, engineering specs, architectural
plans, web pages, text documents, and many other pieces of business
collateral. DAM provides the business rules and processes needed
to acquire, store, index, secure, search, export and transform
these assets and their descriptive information.
