Microsoft open sources Fluid Framework – announces Fluid Workspaces and Fluid Components for Office 365

Microsoft introduced the first way for end users to experience the Fluid Framework in Microsoft 365 with the upcoming availability in preview of Fluid Workspaces and Fluid Components. Fluid Workspaces and Components work like the web to bring the right level of context and connection as well as seamlessly capture follow-ups in-line and edit action items with an entire team. Fluid Components and Fluid Workspaces will become available in more places over time. This initial public preview includes basic text, tables, lists, agendas and action items. These Fluid components will be available for creation in Outlook for the web and Office.com. Microsoft also announced the Fluid Framework will be made open source and hosted as a repository available on GitHub in the next month, allowing developers and creators to use infrastructure from Fluid Framework in their own applications. Coupled with the release of additional developer documentation and tooling, developers can work alongside Microsoft to create and evolve Fluid Framework as it is developed. Developers can take advantage of JavaScript APIs that give them access to collaborative, shared data structures which can be used to power collaborative experiences. They also can create Fluid components — elements that can be reused within Microsoft 365 and across applications.

Enterprise social software

Enterprise social software (also known as or regarded as a major component of Enterprise 2.0), comprises social software as used in “enterprise” contexts. It includes social and networked modifications to corporate intranets and other classic software platforms used by large companies to organize their communication. In contrast to traditional enterprise software, which imposes structure prior to use, enterprise social software tends to encourage use prior to providing structure.

Multilingualism

Multilingualism is the act of using polyglotism, or using multiple languages, either by an individual speaker or by a community of speakers. Multilingual speakers outnumber monolingual speakers in the world’s population. Multilingualism is becoming a social phenomenon governed by the needs of globalization and cultural openness.

Language localisation

Language localization (from Latin locus and the English term locale, “a place where something happens or is set”) is the second phase of a larger process of product translation and cultural adaptation (for specific countries, regions or groups) to account for differences in distinct markets, a process known as internationalization and localization.

enterprise content management

“Enterprise content management” or “ECM” refers to a type of content management that is suitable for large complex organization or “enterprise” application, typically including many types of content (e.g., documents, web content, digital assets), workflows, and integrations with other enterprise software applications. 

The term “enterprise content management” came into common use by 2000, and evolved from “enterprise document management” which was created as part of a successful marketing campaign by document management vendor Documentum. When Documentum added support for web content management they were able to successfully re-brand themselves an enterprise content management vendor to compete with the growing number web content management vendors. 

“Enterprise content management” has always been a problematic term:

  • There is no agreement on when a content management system becomes an enterprise content management system.
  • The term can and often is meant to imply that:
    • a single content management system and repository can manage all of an enterprise’s content, 
    • or a single content management product can support the needs of every department or functional area in an enterprise.

Neither of these situations are easily, if ever, found in the real world. The only reasonable use of the term is to suggest a content management application or system, is at the complex end of the spectrum.
