Content as a Service (podcast, part 1)

In episode 116 of The Content Strategy Experts podcast, Sarah O’Keefe and Patrick Bosek of Heretto talk about Content as a Service.

“Do we still have places where building a static site or a static set of help materials makes a lot of sense? Totally. But there’s a natural aspect of dynamic changing content. If that content is going to be a little bit different based on who or where or when you access it, then you can’t build it statically. That’s one of the things you’ll never get from a PDF.”

Content as a Service

Content as a Service (CaaS) means that you make information available on request. The traditional publishing model is to package and format information into print, PDF, or websites, and make those collections available to the consumer. But with CaaS, consumers decide what information they want and in what format they want it.

Content as a Service: the backbone of modern content operations (webcast)

Content as a Service (CaaS) moves content out of the traditional publishing world. Instead of creating content and pushing it to consumers at the end of the content lifecycle, you make content available on demand. Content consumers connect to a content repository and extract what they need.

In a CaaS system, the content consumer might be a human or a machine. Instead of publishing the content, you let the requestor decide what they need.

In this webcast, Sarah O’Keefe (Scriptorium) and Divraj Singh (Adobe) explore the concept of Content as a Service and provide CaaS examples. If you have complex content requirements, especially in personalization or system integration, CaaS could help you by providing a way to disconnect content authoring, rendering, and delivery.

Self-service content in the age of AI with Patrick Bosek

In episode 165 of The Content Strategy Experts Podcast, Sarah O’Keefe and guest Patrick Bosek of Heretto discuss how the role of customer self service is evolving in the age of AI.

I think that this comes back to the same thing that it came back to at every technological shift, which is more about being ready with your content than it is about having your content in the perfect format, system, set of technologies, or whatever it may be. The first thing that I think either of us will say, and a lot of people in the industry will tell you, is that you need to structure your content.

Going global: Getting started with content localization

Have you been asked to deliver your content in another language but don’t know where to begin? The decisions you make early on when designing and developing your content can make or break your translation and production processes. It’s very hard (and expensive) to make changes as you run into problems during translation or production. It’s even worse when the problems are discovered by the consumers!

Let’s begin with some definitions and then take a look at what you can do to prepare for localization and how translators perform their work.
