MySQL and Alfresco are putting on a web seminar on March 9 featuring Alfresco co-founder and CTO John Newton. Enterprise Content Management (ECM) is consistently a top-ten initiative of CIO's in the Global 2000. ECM has grown from a nice to have to a necessity driven by the indispensable role of content in commerce, compliance and collaboration.

A new model is required to manage content across the enterprise to address the scalability challenges of: Users, Activity, Information and Geography. Scaling up hardware, apart from being a very expensive solution does not necessarily solve the problems of scale. New content architectures are required to provide the means to scale-out the content capacity of the organization utilizing clustering, replication, federated indexing, decentralized authority, modularity, distributed caching and locking. This needs to be built using the latest state-of-the-art open source components to provide the most scalable architecture and speed the development of new capabilities.

Attend this webinar if you are considering any of the following:

* A new content management initiative for your organization
* Replacing an existing proprietary Content Management product with the leading open source ECM
* Learning about open source ECM for Document Management, Collaboration, Records Management, Knowledge Management, Web Content Management and Imaging.
