[edit] Overview
The Sense/Net Content Repository (SNCR) is the storage system underlying Sense/Net 6.0. According to the ECMS philosophy of Sense/Net 6.0, every piece of data that is stored by the system is considered Content inside the Repository.
Some of the main features of the Repository:
- A Metadata system with base types, inheritance and lists (more info at Content Type System)
- Structured storage
- Metadata indexing for fast search and filtering
- A support for Links or Shortcuts
- Version control (check in and check out) and version history
- Hierarchical permission management
- Delegation of permission settings
- Notification and subscriptions
- An event model and workflow interface
- A support for accessing Contents by a friendly URL
[edit] Make sure to...
Maintain a well-defined logical hierarchy among Contents when working in the Repository, and always assign proper names to the Contents you have created. This will help you realize the full potential of Sense/Net 6.0 as an Enterprise Content Management System.
If you are responsible for creating your Enterprise Portal from scratch, implement a well-planned taxonomy to ensure scalable and self-explanatory navigation. In the long term, it can prove beneficial to hire a professional at the start who is experienced in designing portal taxonomies.
[edit] Content Explorer
Users can interact with Sense/Net Content Repository through an intuitive, AJAX based GUI called the Content Explorer. This tool simplifies the management of organizational content, making the modification, creation and removal of Content self-explanatory and straightforward. Your developers will also make good use of the Content Explorer, as it provides a logical overview of the entire Repository structure.
