Subsequent chapters of this book contain examples to help you implement your requirements, such as collaboration, customization, document management and so, on using Alfresco. These examples are an attempt to solve similar content management problems, that are encountered in a typical enterprise.
The idea of providing examples in this book is to:
- Engage the reader, and keep the material feeling realistic.
- Help you apply the features of Alfresco to your business decisions. You will see in the fictional example that decisions are made for particular reasons, and you can compare and contrast these reasons (and thus the decisions) with your own situation.
- Give the book an overall theme, through a narrative engine, to keep things moving and not make this book feel like technical documentation.
