OpenText World 2022 – Day 2

Here we are: Day 2 of OpenText World 2022 in Las Vegas!

Today started for everyone with a Technology Innovation Keynote followed by an Innovation Demo showcase!

After the big announcements of yesterday with the release of Cloud Editions 22.4 during the Opening Keynote, OpenText EVP & Chief Product Officer, Muhi S. Majzoub, kicked off Day 2 with a keynote focused on OpenText product innovation of the 22.4 release. He went through the three pillars – Intelligent, Connected and Responsible – driving their latest initiative, Project Titanium.

And he shared the vision and timeline for this project as well as how the OpenText roadmap aligns to meet the future.

Muhi has been joined on stage by Shyam Pitchaimuthu, Manager ESS, Document Management & Asset Lifecycle at Chevron. Shyam talked about their journey they moved their Documentum infrastructure from On-Prems to OpenText Cloud solution with Microsoft Azure Kubernetes Services.

His presentation was followed by the Innovation Demo Showcase where we could see the latest technology in action presented by different Product Management people from OpenText.
