Veeva Vault – How to Integrate with Other Applications
In some previous posts we discussed our addition of the Veeva Source and Target to our OpenMigrate platform. As we were becoming familiar with the Veeva API for the purposes of migration, we started to think what else could be integrated with a Veeva implementation. It is rare that an ECM system is completely standing alone with no outside integrations and we wanted to explore how those could work with Veeva. This post will cover some examples of potential integrations, as well as ... [Continue Reading]

FileNet Migration – Recorded Alfresco/TSG Webinar – 05/29/2019
On May 29th, 2019, TSG and Alfresco hosted a webinar detailing an innovative solution for migrating off of FileNet onto more modern ECM solutions. Taking the approach of a rolling migration combined with offline access methods enabled users to stop running FileNet very quickly compared to a traditional “big bang” migration approach. When IBM dropped their support for FileNet Content Manager 5.2 on April 30th, many customers were left stranded with an old, unsupported version that may have ... [Continue Reading]

Federated Search versus Rolling Migration
In moving our legacy repositories customers to new modern solutions, one of the major recommendations to reduce cost, risk and stress is a rolling migration. In a discussion with a client last week, there was some confusion in mixing a rolling migration with a federated search. This post will discuss the differences and how a rolling migration is more practical for moving and retiring legacy repositories. ... [Continue Reading]
Migrating to Veeva – Reduce Risk, Stress and Cost with a Gradual Migration
Too often, migrating to Veeva Vault can be seen as a massive undertaking where the migration effort means moving all the content, integrations and people to the new platform in a migrate all-at-once “Big Bang” approach. Given the effort to move all the different components, along with training the users on a new system, it is easy to see why so many legacy systems (like Documentum DCM) are still around today as their owners can, when confronted with this daunting task, choose to “wait ...

Veeva Vault – Documentum Integration Options
One of the issues our Veeva Vault and other document management clients often struggle with is searching for content across Veeva Vault and other existing repositories, such as Documentum. Scenarios like sharing manufacturing specifications that are stored in a Documentum repository with Veeva-based eTMF and Submissions applications are difficult to support as users will typically require separate searches against the individual repositories. This post will talk about how a ... [Continue Reading]
