Document Management System.
Sunday, 03 July 2011

I have been encountering this term many times in the past and still I haven't have the idea what it really does. So it manages a document. Is that too-big a deal now? Then I thought, it could be because they have created a system for it (and yes, they do have a document management software).

Here's what I got from Wikipedia:

A document management system (DMS) is a computer system (or set of computer programs) used to track and store electronic documents and/or images of paper documents. It is usually also capable of keeping track of the different versions created by different users (history tracking). The term has some overlap with the concepts of content management systems. It is often viewed as a component of enterprise content management (ECM) systems and related to digital asset management, document imaging, workflow systems and records management systems.

Well, content management rings a bell. Now I get it.
