Nuxeo’s Eric Barroca on DAM innovation and interoperability
Better interoperability between Digital Asset Management and adjacent systems is one of my favorite topics (see my post on RDF and schema.org for DAM interoperability). I believe that this requires DAM vendors to work on standards or common “best practices” together. That’s why I love talking interoperability with DAM vendor people (and while we’re at it, why not talk about DAM in general?).
Eric Barroca is CEO at (open source) ECM and DAM vendor Nuxeo.
Tim: Would you mind telling us a little bit about you and your journey to becoming CEO of Nuxeo?
Eric: I started at Nuxeo in 2001 as VP of Operations. Since then, I’ve worn several hats until, in 2008, I was appointed CEO of today’s international company. I played a key role in the development of the Nuxeo Platform, as a digital asset platform.
Your product is called the “Nuxeo Platform”. Is it mostly targeted at large enterprise setups with a focus on custom development?
The Nuxeo platform is designed to be both highly scalable and cost effective, so it can be deployed by large enterprises as well as smaller departments and organizations. However, our platform is primarily targeted at large enterprises that need to manage large amounts of data or very complex assets.
