\u201cI wonder whether a modern DAM system should let us \u201cmanage\u201d decentralized or distributed assets<\/strong>: We should to be able to not just find them within the DAM, but also add\/edit metadata and rights information. [\u2026] Wouldn\u2019t it be great to sign up to a fresh cloud DAM system and have it automatically index and link my Dropbox files, Google documents and Facebook photos \u2013 then letting me search and organize them?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

It\u2019s great to see that Nuxeo<\/a> and Picturepark<\/a> (in my book, the two most innovative DAM vendors), are actually implementing this feature! (Can I make another wish now? \ud83d\ude0e)<\/p>\n

Picturepark<\/strong> product manager Olivia Sch\u00fctt talks about this in Rethinking Digital Asset Management<\/a> (the feature is planned for the upcoming Picturepark Content Platform):<\/p>\n

\u201cSocial media posts, Google Docs, corporate messaging\u2014these are all examples of content that you don\u2019t want to have to save into a file just so it can be uploaded to a DAM. But companies need to manage this virtual content too, of which many are borne and live in web apps. [\u2026] If you can keep track of all these contents, and add the metadata you need, you make them findable and valuable to your internal teams. [\u2026] So this was our first thought\u2014that we need to stop caring where content lives<\/strong>, where it needs to go, or what format it is in. Picturepark needed to become a content routing hub.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nuxeo<\/strong> has had a similar feature called Live Connect<\/a> for a while:<\/p>\n

\u201cNuxeo Live Connect links to the live version of your cloud-based files and freely integrates them with other content in the Nuxeo Platform\u2019s workflow system. [\u2026] No matter whether your content is stored on file sharing platforms or within the Nuxeo Platform itself, users will benefit from a unified and powerful search. [\u2026] For example, files stored in Google Drive can be opened with a native Google Drive editor, such as Google Docs, or you can launch a third-party SaaS application, such as Lucidchart for editing flow chart\/diagram files.\u201d<\/p>\n

Any other DAM systems which can do this?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
