A Document Management System (DMS) Instance is a database management system for document records (that supports the document management tasks).
- Context:
- It can (typically) have DMS Features, such as:
- DMS Version Control (version control feature) for tracking changes and updates to documents over time.
- DMS Access Control (access control feature) to manage who can view or edit specific documents based on user roles.
- DMS Search and Retrieval (search and retrieval feature) capabilities to quickly find documents through metadata or full-text search.
- DMS Document Indexing (document indexing feature) to categorize and organize documents for efficient management.
- ...
- It can (often) be based on a Document Management (DMS) Platform, such as: Google Docs and NetDocuments DMS.
- It can (often) support Document Workflow Automation, allowing documents to follow predefined processes such as approvals or reviews.
- It can (often) integrate with Enterprise Content Management (ECM) Systems.
- It can (often) include features such as storage, versioning, metadata, security, indexing, and retrieval capabilities.
- It can (often) facilitate collaboration and improve efficiency in document handling across various sectors.
- ...
- It can range from being a Digital DMS System to being a Hardcopy DMS System.
- ...
- It can be related Digital Asset Managements, Document Imaging Systems, and Records Management Systems.
- It can include Document Workflow System (for document workflows).
- ...
- It can (typically) have DMS Features, such as:
- Example(s):
- a Corporate DMS used by a legal firm to store contracts, legal agreements, and case files with integrated access control and versioning.
- a Cloud-Based DMS like Microsoft SharePoint that allows teams to collaborate on documents remotely and track changes in real-time.
- a Healthcare DMS that securely stores patient records and complies with regulations such as HIPAA for data privacy.
- a Semantic Text Management System, for managing documents based on their semantic content.
- a Clinical Trial Document Management System, for managing documents in clinical trials.
- a Legal Matter Management System, such as a Contract Management System, for managing legal documents.
- …
- Counter-Example(s):
- an Issue Management System, for managing and tracking issues or problems.
- a Knowledge Management System, for managing an organization's knowledge in the form of documents and other resources.
- a Requirements Management System, for managing and tracking project requirements.
- a Records Management System, for managing records rather than documents.

- A document management system (DMS) is usually a computerized system used to store, share, track and manage files or documents. Some systems include history tracking where a log of the various versions created and modified by different users is recorded. The term has some overlap with the concepts of content management systems. It is often viewed as a component of enterprise content management (ECM) systems and related to digital asset management, document imaging, workflow systems and records management systems.
