| No portal solution is complete without two related
technologies-document management and information search and
retrieval. As a company creates and collects information,
employees spend increasing amounts of time searching for,
organizing, and managing that information.
There are several challenges of "information overload" that
businesses are facing in today's electronic world. Some of the
following challenge areas may even be applicable to your
organization:
 | Organization of Information
|
 | Control of information
|
 | Dissemination of Information |
SharePoint Portal Server document management brings order to
how your employees create, review, update, and store documents.
Information search and retrieval works hand in hand with
document management to make it easier for employees to find the
information they need, when they need it, wherever it is
located. SharePoint Portal Server has the power to search up to
millions of documents in a wide variety of databases including
Microsoft Windows, Microsoft Exchange Server, Lotus Notes, and
Microsoft SQL Server. Employees can search not only the contents
of a text document but also the information tags associated with
other types of content such as images, video clips, and sound
files. TI uses Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server as the
platform for document management projects.
