Automated Content Deployment Application for Governance Compliance

Resolve Bottlenecks,
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions

Solution Overview

Problem

Existing content publishing software, such as Tableau Server, requires manual administrative intervention to ensure compliance with governance, security, and change management policies, leading to delays in content sharing and publication.

Innovation Solution

A rapid content deployment application that automates the publication process by interfacing with the publication platform, including a receiver, file existence checker, file preparer, and uploader, to ensure compliance with organizational policies through access control and authorization mechanisms, allowing for automated deployment without manual intervention.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If manual administrative intervention is used to ensure compliance with governance, security, and change management policies, then compliance reliability is improved, but publication speed and productivity deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvecompliance reliabilityVSAvoidpublication speed

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSProductivity

Solution Approach 1:

The system enables self-service automated deployment where the publication platform automatically checks compliance with governance, security, and change management policies without requiring manual administrative intervention. The platform performs self-verification of compliance requirements, eliminating the need for human administrators to manually review each publication while maintaining compliance reliability.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #25Self-service

Solution Approach 2:

The system performs preliminary compliance validation by checking governance, security, and change management policies before the actual publication process. This preliminary action ensures that all compliance requirements are verified in advance, allowing rapid deployment to proceed without delays for manual compliance checks while maintaining reliability.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

2Reliability

If manual administrative intervention is required for each new publication or change, then security and governance control are improved, but deployment time and operational efficiency deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvesecurity controlVSAvoiddeployment time

Core Design Contradiction:

ReliabilityVSLoss of time

Solution Approach 1:

The system implements automated feedback loops where the publication platform continuously monitors and validates compliance with security and governance policies. The platform receives feedback from compliance checks and automatically adjusts the deployment process accordingly, eliminating manual intervention while maintaining security control through automated policy enforcement and verification.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

Solution Approach 2:

The system introduces an automated compliance verification intermediary layer between the publication process and security policies. This intermediary automatically checks and validates security and governance requirements, acting as a mediator that ensures compliance without requiring manual administrative intervention, thereby reducing deployment time while maintaining security control.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

3Productivity

If automated deployment is implemented, then productivity and speed are improved, but compliance with organizational policies may deteriorate

Engineering Contradiction:

Improvedeployment efficiencyVSAvoidpolicy compliance

Core Design Contradiction:

ProductivityVSReliability

Solution Approach 1:

Inventive Principle:

Principle #10Preliminary action

Solution Approach 2:

The system implements automated feedback loops where the publication platform continuously monitors and validates compliance with governance, security, and change management policies. The platform receives feedback from compliance checks and automatically adjusts the deployment process accordingly, ensuring policy compliance is maintained throughout the automated deployment process.

Inventive Principle:

Principle #23Feedback

AI summary

A system for rapid deployment of content on a common publication platform. The system includes a rapid content deployment application hosted on a stand-alone or networked computer that is interfaced with the common publication platform. The rapid content deployment application includes a receiver to receive a file for publication on the common publication platform, a file existence checker to verify existence of a collaboration file on the common publication platform compatible with the received file, and a file preparer to prepare the received file for uploading to the common publication platform in compliance with one or more of governance, security, and change management policies including access control and authorization policies. The rapid content deployment application further includes a file uploader to upload the prepared file to the common publication platform for publication.
