November 24, 2005 JA-SIG UK, Edinburgh CMS for websites & portals - Luminis & Documentum Presented by: David Simpson, The University of Nottingham
Introduction • Highlighting the key issues in implementing CMS across a university. • A practical guide to the challenges of an enterprise wide implementation • How Luminis CMS fits within the Documentum product family
Agenda • Background • Benefits of a CMS solution • The challenges • The key steps to success
Benefits of a CMS solution • Ease of use for editors – In context editing • Concentrate on content not technology • Ensure overall quality and consistency of layout and navigation • Ensure consistent branding
Benefits of a CMS solution • Ensure Accessibility • Introduce formal editorial practices - Workflow • Maximising database driven content • Schools’ individuality - retained via custom designed look and feel for each site • Standardised navigational structure for all websites • Prefabricated websites - merely awaiting content • Default pages & templates predefined • Optional pages available within the model website structure
Prefabricated websites Merely awaiting content…
Guidance for Schools • Work with Web Team to Develop Visual ID • Identify Site Manager and Key Contacts • Identify Content requirements with reference to the model – needs and resources • Develop content and enter via Content Collection Tool • Identify Content Editors and Content Managers • Process anywhere between 3-6 months

LCMS – What you get • A CMS product based on the leading ECM technology • Fully functioning EMC Documentum Content Server • Versioning • Workflow • Lifecycles • SCT Site Studio • Documentum Administrator • Support from Sungard SCT • More functionality with each version increment!
LCMS – What you don’t get • Publishing more than 1 version of content at any one time • Documentum licensed as an ECM solution • Direct access to Documentum support • Support is via Sungard SCT • Documentum Webtop/Desktop client
LCMS – Portal Integration • Automated Luminis Channel Creation (ALCC) • Publishing HTML content to a portal channel from within LCMS • Assign roles etc. to LCMS channels in the usual uPortal manner - but from within LCMS. • Inbox channel with SSO to LCMS • Shows outstanding tasks- workflow etc. • Currently, no support for Documentum portlets • Maybe with Luminis 4 & JSR168 compliance - next year? • Many off the shelf Documentum portlet are available • Currently, no integration with Documentum Portlet Builder • Maybe with Luminis 4 & JSR168 compliance - next year?
Portal Integration at Nottingham • ALCC - Single items of content published as channels • Better to bundle ‘micro-sites’ as portal channels • Awaiting more advanced functionality • Integration with Documentum Portlet Builder? • Inbox channel with SSO to LCMS • Implementation soon
Intranet Policy • Move external facing websites under CMS first • Consider migrating intranets later • Much intranet content is now within the Portal • Module information • SSO to VLEs • Exam timetables • Reading lists • Etc. • The Portal is the intranet for smaller schools
