In 2006, Business Objects faced a major challenge. How to migrate over 50,000 pages of unstructured non-topic based documentation it had acquired through rapid growth and acquisitions. The answer was to use DITA to standardize content creation, management, translation and publishing processes company-wide. In this session, you will learn how they went from planning to publishing using an iterative approach, and how you can use this method to see the results of a content migration sooner in your project cycle.<br /><br />
