Enterprise Content Management
- A more recent term describing newer applications that feature both
Web content management and
document management. In other words, ECM systems managle all of the
content within an enterprise, usually using some type of central repository.
The goal is better control of assets, such as logos or ext for a company
brochure, by keeping them in one place where various departments can get to
them. WebReference published an article that explains the concept of ECM in
more detail:

Extranet
- An extension of an institution's
intranet, especially over the World Wide Web, enabling communication
between the institution and people it deals with, often by providing limited
access to its intranet.
The extension of a company's intranet out onto the
Internet, e.g. to allow selected customers, suppliers and mobile workers
to access the company's private
data and
applications via the
World-Wide Web. This is in contrast to, and usually in addition to, the
company's public
web site which is accessible to everyone. The difference can be somewhat
blurred but generally an extranet implies real-time access through a
firewall of some kind.
Such facilities require very careful attention to security but are becoming
an increasingly important means of delivering services and communicating
efficiently.
