Leveraging Web Services to Integrate With EMC Documentrum in an SOA

This white paper examines features of the EMC Documentum 6 platform that enable its industry-leading enterprise content management capabilities to participate in a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) and communicate with other systems via web services. The primary enabling feature, EMC Documentum Foundation Services (DFS), is examined in technical detail, and sample code fragments that illustrate how to use DFS are provided. The EMC Documentum Process Suite is also examined as a prototypical orchestrator of SOA services. After reading this paper, one should have a good understanding of how to access Documentum services in an SOA using web services.
