One would think that with the recent influx of XML-based tools into the marketplace it would be easier to justify authoring and storing documents directly in XML. By now, most IT managers have been exposed to the benefits of creating enterprise content management systems according to some agreed upon set of documentation rules. However, understanding the benefits of this technical approach and being able to justify the expense of implementing it are two different things. Many XML developers are not able to articulate the long-term advantages of converting corporate data repositories to XML in order to build a suitable business case to get such a project off the ground. This presentation outlines the many cost savings and revenue generation opportunities created by managing enterprise data directly in XML.
