This month, we are pleased to release downloadable versions of EMC Documentum Content Server Developer Edition and EMC Documentum xDB Developer Edition.

• EMC Documentum Content Server Developer Edition
  provides developers with free access to the foundation for the world’s most comprehensive ECM software. It offers a "one-click" deployment that can be run on a laptop so that developers can quickly and easily start creating Documentum-based solutions.
• EMC Documentum xDB Developer Edition
  available for both partners and customer development environments is a scalable, high performance native XML database that’s ideal for building content-oriented applications. It offers an easy install, and allows you to be up and running in less than five minutes.

With these two offerings, Documentum and xDB are now the platforms of choice for ISVs, OEMs, and other developers wanting to create content-centric applications for any industry. With these offerings as your foundation, it is easier than ever to develop applications that have anything to do with content.

In addition to the downloadable versions, we have added other tools and content to enhance your experience and use of this EMC Documentum community site. These include:

• Easy to understand development and "Getting Started" guides
• Full product documentation
• Sample code
• Sample applications
• Architectural whitepapers
• Product demos, and more

And through the Documentum and XML communities, developers have unprecedented, open access to a host of resources, can exchange tips and tricks, learn best practices, and connect with peers.

The free developer editions of Content Server and xDB are for development, testing and trial only. Standard licensing fees apply for production and run-time deployments.

Do-it-yourself imaging isn't all it's cracked up to be. It's time-consuming, expensive, and often proves ineffective.

With ISIS PixTools toolkits from EMC, you can easily add image capture to your solutions and applications—allowing you to win more business.

Watch this free, recorded webcast to find out how to build document capture and imaging solutions that sell.

Join EMC experts for a high-level discussion of document imaging and capture, including benefits. You'll learn more about scanners (as both distributed and centralized devices), common image storage formats, and the differences and similarities between them. You'll also hear about synergistic OEM technologies, such as intelligent document recognition, and platform-specific toolkits.

Watch this webinar to learn how you can:

• Create competitive document capture solutions that go to market quickly
• Reduce development, support, QA, and maintenance costs
• Win more business and generate additional revenue
