Contents

As a supplier for AC drives, the digital agenda is crucial for Danfoss Drives. That is why we are implementing digital product information delivery as close to industry standards as possible. Hence, we selected a DITA-based CCMS and based the metadata model on iiRDS right from the beginning. After we have demonstrated the metadata anlayzing and definition phase in last year's presentation we will present the implementation/usage of iiRDS elements in MadCap IXIA CCMS together with our partner parson AG, who helped us developing and implementing the metadata model. Both, the definition and the implementation phase were done as official iiRDS pilot projects.

Takeaways

The attendees will learn about practical implications, challenges and expected benefits in implementing a metadata model supporting a content delivery strategy for digital product information.

Prior knowledge

Basic knowledge about metadata, CCMS and iiRDS.
