Big data concept has emerged in line with the developments in information and communication technologies. This concept is considered as the start of a new era. It is not possible for archives and electronic document management centers to stay out of these developments. Not only the need for structured data, but also the need for unstructured data is increasing more and more in these centers and in the applications in use. And the use of big data technologies, especially for the processes such as data and text mining, analytics, etc., offers great opportunities through particularly unstructured data in these systems.
Nowadays, the archives are equipped with not only written or comprehensible contents, but also digital records consisting of non-abstract bits, data, and codes. The fact that there has been a new transformation in the archives with digital archives undeniably appears.
Electronic document management systems and data in digital archives are in rapid growth in terms of volume, speed and diversity, with the inclusion of also unstructured data. The data to be collected in data warehouses gains a processable nature by using analytical methods such as data mining, text analytics, etc. By processing data stacks with these techniques, it is possible to produce the necessary information and predictions for decision support systems of institutions.
Digital technologies has also changed how the archives are accessed and used by the public. Millions of visitors visit the websites of archives every month. Users are in need of digital archive services such as accessing archived government websites, viewing old social media posts by the public, accessing legal content, ability to make a detailed search in the catalogs of archives etc. The expectations from the archives are quite high and for example, it is also imperative to keep up with the increasing use of mobile devices. Social media platforms introduce us to new archiving challenges, but it also provides exciting new ways to reach new users. The users also have the potential to change the form of contribution to the archive, by improving the cataloging of our collections.
With digitization and the transfer of documents to electronic media; the studies to be carried out on "big data" appear as processes that must be carried out inevitably by many institutions. This situation will take its place throughout the issues such as volume, velocity and diversity that characterize big data. Efficient management of information and documents plays an important role in increasing corporate success. Electronic document management systems can be effective in the success of business processes as much as personnel, capital, natural resources, tools and methods to assist in product realization.
You have a chance to have the key to save time and monetary cost by choosing the right software product and using structured communication, audit and verification mechanism, decision support system as a tool, in the management of your information and documents.
Electronic document management systems have reached a crucial position for corporate memory, organization, business processes and transparent management criteria, thanks to the strong footsteps of the digital age.
We are happy to stand by our institutions/organizations with 3+EDM during this process. We will continue to ensure and develop the effective use of valid electronic approval mechanisms by companies and public institutions with their unique, user-friendly, reliable, modular certificate/document management, fast and secure e-signature applications.
3+EDM is an application that has been a pioneer in electronic document management system projects with its strong infrastructure and technology, developed entirely with domestic resources in accordance with legislation and standards since 2009 and shaped by the requirements of a diverse customer profile and keeping pace with the digital age.
In conclusion, it is of critical importance to use resources rationally and in such a way to meet institutional needs on the largest scale and for institutions and organizations to shape the future.
