Editor's Notes

  1. END USER level 200
  2. Too much information 64.000 words of new information / day  a book / day Organizations with HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS of documents!
  3. Don’t know where to search what you need
  4. Global organization Offices on four continents No proper cross-office / cross-department communication
  5. Data centers on four continent 200M+ documents Dozens of CMS applications No cross-application platform Duplicated content
  6. Search metaphor broken Maybe that’s not what we should be focused on… setup for findability
  7. FINDABILITY is what we should be focused on. Search is just a piece of that. We’ve had navigation for a long time (though many of us never got it right). We’ve been focused on search Search is dependent upon accessibility of the content (permissions, technology [format & container & connectors to content]) & information architecture (which again, many of us never got right) The user experience of search has gotten better Some search results take into account user interactions with content (e.g. clicks) but they are accounting for other users’ behaviors related to a search query, not my behaviors or preferences. What’s been missing is the user himself or herself. An understanding of the user—their persona—to help determine what the user might be trying to find or should find.
  8. Delve demo
  9. On-prem vs. cloud components
  10. Don’t get scared Complex, challenging but beautiful
  11. Metadata Everywhere Metadata Inventory: Common metadata (title, author, etc.) Custom metadata for each content type Content audit Stakeholders & Key users Existing metadata and needed metadata Manual Auto-tagging
  12. DEMO: aghy
  13. Think of Search & findability when you create/upload content Metadata!!!
  14. ‘I want Google-like Search in my Enterprise’ ‘I want it just work.’ ‘I want to be able to find everything.’ These are NOT requirements. These are dreams.
  15. Office Graph & Delve integration Unified Access Unified Hybrid Search
