Integrating OpenText Content Server with Microsoft 365 Copilot: A Smarter Approach

As IT leaders, you're constantly seeking ways to enhance your organization's efficiency and productivity. Microsoft 365 Copilot offers exciting AI-powered capabilities, but there's a catch: your valuable enterprise content is stored in OpenText Content Server, not SharePoint. This presents a challenge in fully leveraging Copilot's potential. 

The Migration Dilemma 

 Migrating all your content to SharePoint might seem like the obvious solution. However, if you've invested time and resources in setting up OpenText Content Server, complete with integrated applications, governance protocols, and information lifecycle management, a full migration can be complex and disruptive. 

A Better Alternative: Integration 

Instead of a complete migration, consider integrating your OpenText Content Server with Microsoft 365. This approach offers several advantages: 

Access to All High-Value Content: Copilot can tap into your existing OpenText repository, ensuring no critical information is left out. 

Minimal Disruption: Your current workflows and integrations remain intact, reducing the risk of operational hiccups. 

Cost-Effective: Avoid the expenses associated with a full-scale migration project. 

Flexibility: Maintain your OpenText investment while benefiting from Microsoft 365's AI capabilities. 

Enhancing Your Content for AI 

Integration isn't just about connecting systems; it's an opportunity to optimize your content for AI consumption. Here's how: 

Data Augmentation: Enrich your content with additional metadata, making it easier for Copilot to understand and utilize. 

Deduplication: Remove redundant information to improve AI accuracy and efficiency. 

Content Cleanup: Refine and structure your data to ensure Copilot receives high-quality input.
