14. A Quick Snapshot
● Focused on the online customer experience and intelligence, Sean and team
are responsible for HDS.com, Geo sites and microsites.
● The team also manages the marketing technologies
(CMS, mkt automation, globalization/localization, analytics, etc.) and
Marketing Operations.
● Hitachi Data Systems has a good and long standing relationship with Google
and Fishbowl
15. The Content Challenge
● Years of content and assets being added to multiple destinations made it almost
impossible to find the right content of asset.
● Multiple renditions of assets, posted in multiple repositories or destinations, with
or without search available
● Other than the corporate website, no SEO or tagging process for assets
● Lack of easy access to support and technical documentation by the customer
base
16. The Approach
Establish ‘Single Source of Truth’ for assets, create a process
for adding meta data and SEO to assets.
● Initiate a single repository strategy, leveraging our CMS system, including
workflows and version controls and asset relationships
● Expand the deployment and use of GSA to federate and standardize search
● Deploy Fishbowl’s GSA connector to tightly integrate search into web platforms,
applications and CMS systems
● Establish publishing process with TechPubs group for publishing of technical and
support assets
● Redesign HDS’ resource library to provide a better user experience and a gateway
to technical assets not generally listed on the pages on the Dot Com
