Yes.

No. WebCenter Sites is a different product. The only thing available in the newest release is that you can use WebCenter Content as the content repository for Sites' content, so you should be able to expose DAM's features such as multiple renditions and/or streaming also in Sites. But you will need to license it (or get the WebCenter Suite Plus license which contains everything).

Adobe Bridge As A Digital Asset Manager
I've begun to work more with digital stills in my work with FCE. Bringing stills for touch up into Photoshop CS4 is typically part of the work flow. Adobe includes Adobe Bridge as one way to import the stills.
Adobe also suggests that Bridge is a "powerful program for previewing and managing a diverse array of assets." This suggests that Bridge can be used as a Digital Assets Manager (DAM) for stills, audio, swf, and video files.
The more work we do in media development - the more we need to better manage our media. I'm curious if there are any with experience attempting to use Bridge as a DAM and if so, how it has proved as a viable tool for asset management. Please let me know of any experience or knowledge you may have.
Thanks!I posted it to this group for three reasons.
1) I'm curious if Bridge really does "bridge" well between Adobe and Apple products or is it really just for Adobe products. With Final Cut, we often find ourselves bridging between these competing companies. Id Bridge a viable solution?
2) Are there viable DAM products out there that media professionals are successfully using and if so what are they and is Bridge one of them?
3) Like many of us on this list, I use FC and Photoshop. Have FC users found Bridge to be a viable DAM solution or not for these tools?
Hope that helps to clarify my question. -
Hi all,
I've been using idImager to keep track of photos and videos. The one problem I have found with this product is setting it up in a collaborative environment.
I was wondering what people are using to keep track of the digital assests and where they are used.
The things I need to keep track of are:
Images
Video (complete and clips)
Audio files
Cubase and Ableton Live projects (and their assets)
Adobe project files
CC Prelude looks like it is only usefult for video clip pull in.
Any ideas?
I wasn't sure what forum to post this in. If there is a more appropriate area let me know
Thanks
IanWe use WebDAM for collaboration and digital asset management. Its an awesome DAM Software . For all design activities, our entire team uses Adobe Creative Cloud. They both seem to work really well together. Managing your images, video (complete vids and clips), audio files, projects, adobe files, and almost any file is completly supported. WebDAM also allows us to control versions, edit and control metadata, supports EXIF and XMP metadata standards, comment on assets, automatically convert file formats, set expiration dates, get automated alerts when others work on files, easy search, viewing capabilities, control access, and share/secure/collaborate on our files anytime from anyplace. Its super easy to use. Our team also loves the video module which allows you to serve your videos and clips to various websites, control versions, etc. haha, sounds like a sales pitch. I'm pretty sure Intel, New Balance Shoes, Santa Cruz, Symantec, GE, bunch of design agencies, and almost every college uses WebDAM. Being near Adobe's headquarters in Silicon Valley, I think their software engineers interact with Adobe consultants as well.
But I guess the question is, are you looking for something to use for your entire team, company, or just for personal use? That will determine what type of software you should be looking for. -
Hi all,
I am coming to this forum with this question because this amazing community of design professionals has helped me SO MUCH over the past few years...so I come to you for help once again as I search for a digital asset management solution that will also catalog InDesign files. I first used to use Canto Cumulus many years back, and then used Portfolio Standalone but both of those had their issues and are now discontinued. I am now looking for something else. It is for my small business and needs to handle all of my InDesign files and all associated artwork (I have a HUGE library of files....this also includes all of my image files, pdfs, etc.).
Extensis Portfolio Server is just WAY overkill and WAY too expensive for what I need. Also, the cheapest option (which is $1,999) only handles "thousands of files" whereas I have tens of thousands. I am also not interested in storing my "asset catalog" within the cloud...I just want it stored locally.
Please please can someone help point me in the right direction? I have been scratching my head searching for something...there is SO MUCH out there...the majority of which won't properly handle InDesign files as well, which is a NECESSITY.
Thank you so much as always,
ChristinePurple_Jim, for some reason I just lost my new reply, so am writing again:)
I just checked out the program and one CAN easily update the database when changes are made to the volume(s) as files are added/removed/renamed/moved, etc. This is GREAT!! I am busy trying it out and it is WONDERFUL and EXACTLY what I need! And it is SO SPEEDY too...I LOVE it!
I just had to contact their support tho' as it doesn't seem to want to add in all of the images. It APPEARS to be adding them but not all of the folders are showing up. If I can get this issue sorted out then this program would be IDEAL:) It's great to know that you haven't had any issues:) That gives me hope as this program looks PERFECT!!
Thank you so so much for letting me know about it:)
**UPDATE**
In CASE you can shed any light on my issue...
I just did some more testing and it seems that the problem occurs if/after I hit “STOP” when the volume is being scanned. Once I try to update the volume after that so that I can continue adding images, then it seems that nothing is added to the directory in Tri_CATALOG after the point when I chose to hit “STOP”.
It does not seem to be cataloging everything:( I just tried adding a new volume but it appears to have stopped adding images to the database even tho’ it SEEMS as if new items are still being added in the “Scan Volume window”.
Here is an example: The image below labeled “469-00625” appears to have been added to the “Clients/Ascot Supply Corp./Buyer’s Guide/2014 Buyer’s Guide/Archive/z_buyer’s guide image library_jpg/06_valve hardware/JPEG” folder but when I do a search for the image it cannot be located, and this folder also does not appear in the catalog directory (second screenshot below). No matter how many times I try to update the volume, the number of images for the “Clients” folder below remains at 811 pictures (as if it has stopped scanning, even tho’ new ones are still being added) and I am not able to add anything else. The Tri_CATALOG database appears to have stopped adding images after the “2011 Buyer’s Guide” folder below even tho’ there are still several new folders still need to be added….see third screenshot for ACTUAL directory on the volume.
From Tri_CATALOG: (Won’t add anything else below “2011 Buyer’s Guide"
Screenshot of ACTUAL directory from volume I am trying to scan into Tri_CATALOG: -
Aperture as a Multi-User Digital Asset Management Tool
Does anyone have any experience using Aperture in a multi-user environment? I'm trying to compare it to Cumulus by Canto which is designed as a multi-user tool.
I realize that each user would have a copy of Aperture on their Mac, but are there other issues that are not such as multi-variable searching capabilities of one versus the other. My gut tells me that Cumulus is more robust and can handle much larger libraries as well as all types of digital data and can search within document such as InDesign for a particular image.
Thanks
--MitchThere is no possible way you can use Cumulus and
actually save money.
I don’t expect to save money. I expect to save time finding info, and avoiding duplication of almost everything we have
Stepping into digital asset management is a far bigger
issue than your boss can imagine. Try not to take this
personally, but your initial question about using
Aperture as an enterprise or workgroup DAM suggests you
have no idea what you're suggesting or possibly getting
into. Canto is all smoke and mirrors unless you can
afford the training and have dedicated, competent and
engaged support personnel.
Nothing taken personally. The question was asked because management is promoting Aperture as the end-all and be-all of imagement, whereas I’m looking for a tool to manage all our documents
Before you go much further, you need to understand
databases and you need to understand that DAM's return
on investment is not about saving money, it's about
preventing the spending of money; a huge difference and
there are few mgrs who can parse that difference from
the sales hype. Buy a copy of "The DAM Book" and try to
get someone to explain databases, cataloging
applications and server-based storage to you.
I understand databases quite well, but I will get a copy of the book you mentioned. I am running an Xserve in my environment, so I do understand servers and OS X Server.
I wish you tremendous luck and hope your experiences
are better than most of the Canto customers I have ever
met, including me. You just have no idea how expensively
wrong your decision to employ Cumulus could turn out to
be. Not that it's a bad product (although we thoroughly
despise it); it's sold as a miracle. Cumulus is a
supremely complex (not necessarily complicated),
over-designed and totally un-Macintosh application.
What version of Cumulus are you using, and why are you so unhappy with it? May I contact you off line to discuss this?
Thanks for the reply

Lightroom V2 replace Iview as Digital Asset Management software?
I need software that will allow me to locate images that are stored on DVD's. For instance, search for image "JFP-TurnerAgency-134", find a preview of the image, and then see that it's located on DVD #759. I'm using Iview currently, but don't like it.
The "volume management" feature appears that it might work but no one is really talking about this feature. Will Lightroom V2 accomplish this and work as DAM software (digital asset management)?
Thanks,

Digital Asset Management (DAM)
I'm looking at purchasing software that can act as digital asset management, does Aperture have this ability. Basically I need to store digital images off my of hard drive onto DVD/external drives for archiving and then need to be able to find them again quickly.
I already use Canto Cumulus 6 for this but I have moved on to Intel Mac Pro and need to upgrade, might be time for a change.Any advise is appreciated.
Thanks for the help.
BillBill-
At this point in time Aperture IMO is the best app on the planet for volume DSLR capture management and DAM for folks with adequate Mac hardware (your basic setup qualifies, but if you do buy Aperture you will want one of the better graphics cards available after Expo). After Mac Expo SF is over on January 18th I will have refined my opinion after spending extensive time at the relevant booths on the show floor.
IMO cursory evaluation of Aperture is a waste of time. Without really good competent guidance one usually either totally does not get it and/or simply develops bad habits.
I recommend that folks with adequate hardware (MacIntel, minimum 2 GB RAM, 4+ GB is better) invest time and $33 in Apple Pro Training Series: Aperture 1.5 (Apple Pro Training) by Orlando Luna and Ben Long (Paperback - Oct 2006). It is a training Tutorial, not just a manual; its value is as a tutorial, not as a manual. As you work through the tutorial the various Aperture workflow choices become evident and then you can choose your preferred configuration.
Even if you ultimately choose another app the workflow choices learned working the tutorial are invaluable. Aperture has a free 30 day trial, but have the tutorial CD in hand and RAM installed before downloading the trial so you do not waste time of the trial.
Aperture is hardware-intense and there are routines to learn to optimize speed. A good forum exists at <http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=1092>.
Note that Aperture allows a dual laptop/desktop installation and will run on your G4 Powerbook, but marginally. I recommend that you thoroughly learn Aperture and its workflow alternatives on your Mac Pro before trying to implement any workflow that involves the PB. Making dual-computer setups work is tricky, and scaling volumes of images for laptop access is a challenge.

What 'Digital Asset Management' system do you use?
I'm researching Digital Asset Management systems that I can use to create a elegant online image and graphic download centres, branded for individual clients.
Has anyone found or created their own solution in this field? I would be interested to hear of your experiences and view online examples if available.
SteveSteve,
There are literally hundreds of Digital Asset Management systems out there as numerous vendors from a wide range of backgrounds (software vendors, printers, design agencies, video producers etc) all think they have some insight that makes them uniquely qualified for this field. This makes it a bit tricky to recommend a specific option as a lot depends on what kind of asset you're needing to manage. You need to do an assessment of:
What kinds of assets you're most interested in
How many there are (i.e. the scale of the library)
Is it single or multi-users, do you have external suppliers who may need access
If you have IT skills in-house to install and maintain the system
If so, what technologies you prefer, if not to what extent you are comfortable with external hosting and someone else holding the assets
What you want to do with the assets: download, manipulate, integrate etc.
Who will catalogue the assets and what kind of tagging/metadata etc. you want to apply
How the assets will get on/off the system and who decides whether they should or should not
With that information, it's easier to narrow down the list of potential candidates, but you will still have quite a few other decisions to make to isolate the right product for your needs.
If you're interested in information about Digital Asset Management, check our our site: http://www.daydream.co.uk for some reports and articles that are relatively spin-free (disclaimer: we're consultants so we can't claim total impartiality). We're also the original developers of an open source .NET based DAM: FocusOPEN Digital Asset Manager. If .NET doesn't appeal then http://www.opensourcedigitalassetmanagement.org seems to have a good run down of the major options that don't cost anything to get going.
Good luck

KM + Digital asset management
Hi All,
Does SAP KM 7.0 supports digital asset management? If yes, then please explain how it does.
Best Regards,

what type of Digital Asset Management u r talking about?
The term "Digital Asset Management" (DAM) also refers to the protocol for downloading, renaming, backing up, rating, grouping, archiving, optimizing, maintaining, thinning, and exporting files.
:- found from wikipedia.
If this is what u r talking about then it supports with the combination of KM and Collaboration services.

Digital asset management features
can any one tell me the digital asset management features?
I know the basic features like,
.Workflow, version control, security, archiving, subscriptions, content conversion, collaboration, record disposition, and Web publication assets leveraging core capabilities of Oracle WebCenter Content
• Content check-in and accessibility from anywhere with Web-based and Windows Explorer interfaces
• Compression of content to decrease bandwidth demands
•Automatic categorization of assets for easy searching
•Quick identifying of files via automatically created thumbnail renditions
any one knows anything other than this?
I would like to know the specific features like image cropping is possible, multiple renditions are possible.
I need some thing like thisTake a look at the documentation. I guess the best place is here: Working With Image and Video Conversions - 11g Release 1 (11.1.1)

Does KM support Digital Asset Management
I have come across several references to Digital Asset Managment (DAM) with respect to the portal but can find no information.
Does KM support DAM?
I believe that CRM 5.0 will support DAM but I can find no references to how.
Does anyone know any answers?
Thanks
PatrickHi Patrick,
as Digital Asset Management seems to me as a abstract term, I would say that KM supports DAM in that sense that
- it offers unified access to your digital content (the Repository Framework allows integration of nearly any kind of media library within the portal)
- if offers an integrated set of capabilities, like searching, viewing, editing, sharing documents.
In that sense, KM supports DAM.
What do you expect from DAM and what would be your use case you would like to use KM for?
Best regards,

Hi,
can anyone guide me how to implement DAM (Digital Assets Management) for Oracle UCM.
My Inviroment:
Web Server: Apache2.2
Data Base: Oracle 10g
Content Server: 10gR3
OS: Windows 2003
Thank you & Best RegradsInstalling DAM isn't too bad, check out the documentation. It boils down to installing a handful of components on content server and at least one on inbound refinery.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10316_01/cs/cs_doc_10/documentation/integrator/install_admin_dam_10en.pdf
You will need something like image alchemy for image conversion, or photoshop (though image alch is the one default settings are provided for). This costs money separate from your oracle license -
