DITA creates smaller needles in a bigger haystack
• If you had 1000 documents under management, each with 100 reusable parts (e.g. procedures), now you have 100,000 objects under management
• You can browse folders to find things – but that only works for small teams familiar with the content
• Full text search gets too many hits…• Solution: use metadata to improve the findability
of DITA content for reuse• We’d expect organizations with DITA or other
component reuse to be more mature in their adoption of metadata and taxonomy best practices.
• This isn’t exactly what we found…2
