When a workflow executes in Adobe Experience Manager (AEM), it stores workflow runtime information in the JCR repository under the instance node.

My colleague Candace recently wrote a guest post on Workflow Security in Sitecore, where she referenced the common desire of a Content Manager to have intelligent, context-specific emails generated around Sitecore Workflows.  Here’s her follow up on how to produce such emails. Sitecore provides email functionality out of the box with its workflows.  It’s really […]

All over the web, there are plenty of links to how to interact with SharePoint 2010 via the Client Object Model. Unfortunately, these interactions are all done via the compiled Client Object Model, not the Silverlight or JavaScript versions. That means you have to do the translation to JavaScript or Silverlight yourself. For Silverlight, that’s […]

When I look at Forms products I see a huge return on investment especially if it can be paired with an easy to use workflow tool.  Just as the market continues to evolve, IBM continues to work on their Forms tools. What’s New IBM renamed it to IBM Forms.  It is now the Forms tool […]
