The Nuxeo Platform

Q&A How does this feed back into the cycle from the data stream providing content instead of a data stream that is based on content?

@Nuxeo #ECMChanges

Q&A This all makes sense from the perspective of a new effort, but what’s the best way to ensure we can utilize this thinking on our existing applications?

@Nuxeo #ECMChanges

Q&A Does everything have to move to the cloud? We have difficulty convincing our security and risk management group that the positives outweigh the negatives.

@Nuxeo #ECMChanges

Q&A What is the single most important technology to focus on? Mobile? Customer experience management?
