CSDB Setup & Deployment

Establish the Foundation for S1000D Technical Information

Set up and configure a Common Source Database as the controlled environment for creating, managing, validating, reusing, and publishing S1000D technical information.

The Challenge

A CSDB is the foundation of an effective S1000D implementation.

Poorly defined project structures, identification systems, metadata, BREX, workflows, and user roles can create problems across the entire technical-information lifecycle. A successful deployment therefore requires both technical configuration and an understanding of S1000D information management.

What We Deliver
CSDB installation
Environment configuration
Project setup
DMRL configuration
SNS configuration
Data Module identification
BREX configuration
Business-rule setup
Metadata configuration
Applicability setup
User and role management
Workflow configuration
Existing-data migration
Validation
Go-live support
How We Deliver

Assess → Architect → Install → Configure → Migrate → Validate → Test → Go-Live

We assess your S1000D requirements and target environment, establish the CSDB architecture, configure the project and information structures, migrate existing content where required, validate the environment, and prepare it for production use.

Key Capabilities

CSDB Installation & Configuration

Establish the technical environment and configure it according to project requirements.

Project Setup

Create the structures required to manage technical information within the project.

DMRL Management

Establish the Data Module Requirements List and manage planned technical information.

SNS Configuration

Configure the Standard Numbering System used to organize and classify technical information.

BREX & Business Rules

Implement project-specific rules governing technical-information creation and validation.

Applicability

Configure the mechanisms required to associate information with relevant configurations and conditions.

Workflow Management

Establish controlled processes for authoring, review, approval, release, and change management.

User & Role Management

Define permissions and responsibilities for authors, reviewers, administrators, and other users.

Data Migration

Move existing S1000D information into the new CSDB environment while maintaining required structures and relationships.
