Follow on Google News | MEI and DPCI to Showcase Dynamic Content Delivery Using K4 and DrupalMEI and DPCI today announced that the two companies will showcase connectivity between the vjoon K4™ Publishing System and Drupal Web content management system. The webinar will demonstrate how K4 can seamlessly deliver content to Drupal.
By: Managing Editor Inc. The free webinar, which takes place Wednesday, May 6, at 2 p.m. Eastern Time, will illustrate how the K4-Drupal connection facilitates several publishing workflows, including print-to-Web, Web-first and Web-only models. Attendees will learn how to leverage these top technologies to author and organize multi-channel content under one integrated system, with significant time and money savings. The powerful K4 database provides writers and editors with a managed workflow during the authoring and revision processes. Once content has been edited and approved, DPCI’s connector module for K4 imports the data into Drupal, where it is published online, enriched with SEO key terms in the appropriate section of the designated Web site. “K4 and Drupal connectivity provides a much-needed solution for all publishers: a single system that feeds multiple channels, instantly and effectively,” Hundreds of companies worldwide are already using K4 to produce thousands of titles, including GQ, The New Yorker, BusinessWeek, Cosmopolitan, Rolling Stone and more. And with millions of downloads already logged, Drupal’s popularity is growing rapidly as well; users range from organizations such as recovery.gov, consumersearch.com, NYU Langone Medical Center and The Onion, to sites representing Beyonce, Bob Dylan and Hillary Clinton. Thanks to MEI and DPCI, customers of both systems now have an off-the-shelf toolset for using them together. “For publishers who create breaking news content, speed to market is everything. Companies just can’t afford any kind of latency in their workflow,” said Joseph Bachana, president and founder of DPCI. “We created the K4-Drupal module for those customers who are looking to swiftly integrate their print editorial investment with online content delivery without needing to lovingly handcraft files into Web-ready format.” Visit www.maned.com/ About K4 The vjoon K4 Publishing System, integrated with Adobe InDesign and InCopy, allows publishing professionals to manage design and editorial workflow and to control the entire production process.
