Mention the word “KnowledgeLake” and you might have an image of people swimming in a “lake” filled with technical and IT-related words and jargon in your mind. Before you grimace, let’s look at what KnowledgeLake is all about.  To do that we first need to understand a little about Enterprise Content Management (ECM).

ECM in a nutshell is a content/document management solution. The KnowledgeLake website supplies a terrific definition of ECM as defined by AIIM, "Enterprise Content Management (ECM) is the strategies, methods and tools used to capture, manage, store, preserve, and deliver content and documents related to organizational processes. ECM tools and strategies allow the management of an organization's unstructured information, wherever that information exists.”  More than a lake, think of KnowledgeLake as an information super highway - getting you where you want to be and keeping everything moving in an orderly fashion.
