How does Documentum work ?

Documentum is at its core an object-oriented database system that sits between Microsoft Windows and the Windows applications you use every day.
Numerous extensions and customizations are available for Documentum. Documentum will be integrated with an access control system called Authentica and a scanning/optical character recognition (OCR) component called Captiva.
Documentum is not an operating system, nor will it require you to use unfamiliar applications. You will be able to continue using the Windows applications and tools with which you are familiar, like Microsoft Office, Microsoft Outlook, Adobe Acrobat, and SAP.

Because Documentum is a true object-oriented relational database system, many types of database queries, content relationships, and workflow automation are possible. For example, workflows can be defined such that a document can be automatically forwarded through review, sign-off, implementation, and archiving phases, with each step acting as a programmatic “trigger” for subsequent steps.
