    The Content Triforce: DITA, metadata, and microcontent

    Content that meets the needs of an organization and its users requires standards for structuring, describing, and guiding the writing of content.

    This is true even more so with AI and internet-connected devices when content is used by humans and machines. DITA helps organizations meet the first of these requirements by providing a standard to structure content, but it needs help to describe content and guide the writing of content. Enter its helpers: metadata and microcontent.

    This presentation will explore how a metadata standard, such as iiRDS, and microcontent help to fill in the gaps left by DITA to create valuable, targeted content that has a clear audience, purpose, and intended user response.
