Presented by Sarah O’Keefe

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.

With CaaS, you turn over decisions about filtering, delivery, and formatting to others—a content-on-demand model. The content owner is no longer the publisher. Instead, the content consumer controls delivery; the content owner’s responsibility ends when the content is made available to content consumers. In a connected world, CaaS lets us deliver relevant content at the point of need. But it’s a potentially difficult transition because, as content creators, we are accustomed to controlling not just the content itself, but the packaging and delivery. In this presentation, you’ll see some ideas on how CaaS might change your content operations.
