SDL introduces next generation of SDL Tridion

SDL introduced the next generation of its intelligent content platform, SDL Tridion. The platform is designed to assist organizations with their digital transformation by addressing the full spectrum of single source content for employees, partners and customers. Offering content management, combined with SDL’s AI, Translation Management and Neural Machine Translation technologies, SDL Tridion creates a single source of truth for all enterprise information. Customers typically use SDL Tridion as a Digital Experience Hub to drive omnichannel experiences, and as their Enterprise Knowledge Hub to manage in-depth information such as documentation, policies, procedures and other business critical information on an internal portal or intranet. SDL Tridion comprises of four components that can be deployed together – or independently – on premises, in the cloud or in a hybrid environment:

  • SDL Tridion Sites: SDL’s Web Content Management (WCM) offering centralizes web and mobile sites onto a single platform, connecting people, processes and information across teams, markets and brands for impactful digital experiences across any channel and in any language. A new user experience introduced in SDL Tridion Sites – Experience Space – offers a workspace that helps organizations to build and activate digital experiences with fewer clicks and intelligent, predictive defaults. It also speeds up onboarding of new employees and reduces training needs.
  • SDL Tridion Docs: SDL’s offering for multilingual Component Content Management (CCM) democratizes the process of knowledge creation by making it easier for organizations to author structured content. The user experience – Collective Space – opens up new possibilities for subject matter experts (SMEs) and occasional contributors to collaborate and share knowledge in a controlled way without the need to understand and work directly with the underlying XML.
  • SDL Tridion Delivery: With its single-source publishing, SDL Tridion’s managed content can be delivered in any type of output format – and in any language. Content only needs to be authored once, and is automatically converted into multiple output types. SDL Tridion Delivery supports headless, dynamic, personalized and responsive web delivery, API-based access to content, XML or JSON output, RSS streams, static HTML, Help files, and eLearning – all the way to automatically formatted and accessible PDFs or print output.
  • SDL Tridion Accelerators: Accelerators bring together prebuilt connectors, sample code, and documentation that help unlock enterprise information stored across the business. They connect external content and data repositories to SDL Tridion. By integrating Digital Asset Management, Customer Relationship Management, Commerce Systems and storage repositories with SDL Tridion, organizations benefit from a single source of truth across their information architecture.

MarkLogic announces Data Hub Central for simplified data integration

MarkLogic Corporation announced Data Hub Central, the newest capability of MarkLogic Data Hub Service. Data Hub Central provides a simple user interface for self-service data integration where developers, architects, and business analysts can collaborate to integrate, explore, analyze, and share consistent data assets tailored to business needs. With MarkLogic’s built-in search capability, Data Hub Central enables analysts to “shop” for the exact data sets needed to solve business problems. Data sets can be saved, shared, and re-used in popular BI tools – without having to make an IT request.

Data Hub Central spans the integration lifecycle in a single interface. It enables architects who are tasked with overseeing data modeling and governance to collaborate with business analysts to define data models and relationships in the language of the business. Systems analysts, who understand source systems and data, can go to Data Hub Central to look at and adjust the model. As the model is adjusted, data can be loaded from multiple source systems to see how it maps to the target model, as it is changed. Developers have a centralized source of data assets and do not have to wait on lengthy ETL cycles to get access to the data. While Data Hub Central provides no-code capabilities, it is also extensible. While data experts are using it to integrate the data, developers can write re-usable components that extend and customize it. Because Data Hub Central runs as part of MarkLogic Data Hub Service, it has the same enterprise data security capabilities enforced at the data layer.
