Case Study

Challenges

  • Juniper was using Documentum as their primary CMS for quite some time. It was a massive on-premise installation
  • Juniper wanted to reduce their on-premise infrastructure footprint and adopted cloud migration strategy. Documentum was a major hurdle in their roadmap
  • Documentum repository became messy and unstructured over time without proper governance.
  • Lack of proper Information Management Policies put the Intellectual Properties at risk
  • Users experience was poor for lack for proper classification. Content retrieval, authoring, publishing were all inefficient
  • The support contract for Documentum was ending
  • Juniper adopted Microsoft 365

Solution

  • A detailed assessment was done for Documentum for content volume, types, freshness, usage and organization
  • In consultation with stakeholders, SharePoint Online Information Architecture was designed. Detailed mapping was done for cabinets and folders to sites & libraries.
  • Documentum permission model was mapped to SharePoint permission model
  • Classification taxonomy was created and mapped to Content Types
  • Documentum export was migrated using NW Unified Migration Tool, where ETL was performed on the export to make it compliant to SPO repository. CSOM/REST API was used to populate SPO
  • SPO site pages were configured using a white gloves service agreement to provide desired user experience and features
  • URL redirection module was provided to redirect old bookmarked links

Benefits

  • A cloud-based Document Management System
  • Retained document authorship information, timestamp and ACLs
  • Carried over all document versions and metadata
  • Improved UX experience for users
  • Highly improved collaboration through O365 collaboration workloads. Always future compatible
