XML in the Content Lifecycle
Key Findings:
- The market for XML content lifecycle solutions is expected to grow from $1.8 Billion in 2003 to over $11.6 Billion by 2008.
- Producers of content in the enterprise spend over 60% of their time locating, formatting, and structuring content and just 40% of their time actually creating it.
- By 2008, about 60% of all content lifecycle products will be XML-enabled.
- the primary challenge in the enterprise for producers of content — information that is intended for human consumption — is content reuse: the ability to integrate content from disparate sources.
- Efforts to improve content processes have been slowed by efforts to extract and manipulate content from multiple, disparate data sources.
