A new year brings new opportunities for our customers to drive efficiency, sustainability, profitability and growth with cloud-based digital transformation. With OpenText™ Cloud Editions (CE) 23.1, announced today, we introduce innovations to propel organizations into 2023 and beyond by enabling more intelligent, connected, and responsible operations.
These innovations, part of the Project Titanium roadmap, represent an evolution of capabilities across the information management domains in which we play: content services, business network, digital experience, security, and developer APIs. And with our acquisition of Micro Focus, the integration of their capabilities will become part of our Project Titanium journey to deliver unified, integrated information management in public, private, and API clouds.
Let’s dive into what’s new.
