What is Adobe Drive 2.0?
Adobe Drive 2.0 is available as of August 2010 to enable seamless  integration of an asset-management system with Adobe Creative Suite 5  applications. The Adobe Drive 2.0 Connect UI is an easy-to-use interface  that allows users to connect to a DAM server. Once you are connected,  Adobe Drive 2.0 offers simple, intuitive access to remote assets through  the platform file browsers, through platform dialogs such as Open and  Save, through Adobe Bridge, and directly from the menus and UIs of  Drive-integrated Creative Suite applications: Adobe Photoshop®,  Illustrator®, InDesign®, and Adobe Bridge.
Adobe will provide the Adobe Drive 2.0 SDK to third-party  asset-management vendors. The SDK allows DAM vendors to create custom  connectors for easy access to their servers. A custom connector can  expose features such as check-in, version comments, and version  retrieval.
With the customized connector, Adobe Drive 2.0 offers the user an  easy way to connect to a DAM server and access it as a network drive on  the user's file system. Users can treat remote managed assets as if they  were local, browsing them with the platform file browser or through  Adobe Bridge.
Adobe Drive 2.0 also accesses "hidden" user functions within the  integrated Creative Suite applications, allowing users to perform asset  management functions directly from the application, such as viewing  version history, or adding a check-in comment when saving a file. These  Creative Suite features are present in the application only when Adobe  Drive 2.0 (along with a DAM vendor's custom connector) is installed on  the user's machine.
