DPCI Announces the DPSBridge Module for Drupal

mike-johnston Profile

DPCI, an interactive technology agency that helps organizations create, publish, enrich and deliver content to Web, print, mobile, and tablet devices, today announced the release of DPSBridge, a Drupal contributed module that allows customers of Adobe Digital Publishing Suite (Enterprise Edition) to upload Web content from Drupal into Adobe DPS folios as HTML Articles. By connecting Drupal with DPS, organizations now have the option to create folios for Adobe DPS apps straight from source content within Drupal.

The DPSBridge module, which is an open-source Drupal module maintained by DPCI, converts selected web articles into HTML stacks and then uploads the articles directly to the Folio Producer Service in DPS by utilizing the Folio Producer APIs. In addition, DPSBridge compares each selected Drupal article with the version in the folio and indicates when the content is out of sync. An authorized user can then update the contents of the folio to utilize the most current version of the Drupal article. This functionality can all be accessed directly from within Drupal’s admin interface without having to jump out to the desktop or another application interface.

“The DPSBridge module extends the capabilities of Drupal and Adobe DPS by creating an easier process for publishing Web original content to tablet devices,” said Joe Bachana, President and Founder of DPCI. “As both a Drupal consulting firm and an implementer of the Adobe Digital Publishing Suite, we believe this to be a ground-breaking innovation in the integration of proprietary and open-source multi-channel technologies.”

“We are excited that DPS customers can use Adobe Experience Manager, the leading solution for Web and digital asset management, or software packages such as Drupal, to streamline the creation of app content by leveraging a central asset repository,” said Ben Choi, senior director of product management for Digital Publishing Suite, Adobe.  “Whether customers choose to use DPS with AEM, gaining access to an intuitive, template-driven HTML workflow for rapid app content creation or Drupal, organizations can deliver content-centric apps more quickly, resulting in significant time-savings and lower costs.”

The DPSBridge module currently supports Drupal version 7.x.
