Brightcove - OpenText Information Archive Integration and Automation

Common Integration Use Cases Between Brightcove and OpenText InfoArchive

1. Archive completed live event recordings and associated metadata

Data flow: Brightcove to OpenText InfoArchive

When Brightcove live streams are completed, the final recording, captions, event metadata, and publishing details can be automatically transferred to OpenText InfoArchive for long-term retention. This is valuable for enterprises, broadcasters, and educational institutions that need to preserve webinars, town halls, investor calls, or training sessions for compliance, audit, or future reference without keeping them in active production storage.

• Reduces Brightcove storage and content management overhead
• Preserves a compliant record of the event and related metadata
• Supports legal, regulatory, and internal audit requirements

2. Retain marketing and corporate communications videos for regulatory review

Data flow: Brightcove to OpenText InfoArchive

Marketing, investor relations, and corporate communications teams often publish videos that must be retained for policy, legal, or industry-specific review periods. Brightcove can send final published versions, campaign identifiers, approval records, and audience targeting details to InfoArchive so compliance teams can retain a defensible record of what was published, when it was published, and who approved it.

• Creates an immutable archive of published video assets
• Improves governance over externally distributed content
• Helps teams respond faster to compliance or legal inquiries

3. Decommission legacy video repositories while preserving access to historical content

Data flow: Legacy video systems or Brightcove content exports to OpenText InfoArchive

Organizations modernizing their video stack can migrate historical video libraries from legacy repositories into OpenText InfoArchive before retiring older systems. Brightcove can then be used for active content delivery while InfoArchive stores older assets, transcripts, and associated records for long-term access. This approach is especially useful for media companies and enterprises with large archives of training, product, and event content.

• Supports application retirement and infrastructure cost reduction
• Maintains access to historical video records without keeping legacy platforms online
• Separates active distribution content from long-term archival content

4. Archive video analytics and engagement records for compliance and reporting

Data flow: Brightcove to OpenText InfoArchive

Brightcove analytics such as viewer engagement, play history, completion rates, and campaign performance can be archived in InfoArchive to preserve reporting evidence over time. This is useful for regulated industries, internal audit teams, and media organizations that need to retain proof of content performance, audience reach, or campaign execution beyond the active reporting window in Brightcove.

• Preserves historical analytics for audit and trend analysis
• Supports retention policies for business reporting data
• Reduces dependence on short-term analytics dashboards

5. Store approved video assets and supporting documents from content workflows

Data flow: Brightcove to OpenText InfoArchive

Content teams often manage video approvals, rights documentation, release forms, and editorial records alongside the final media asset. Brightcove can pass the approved video file or reference, captions, thumbnails, and workflow metadata to InfoArchive, where supporting documents are retained together as a complete business record. This creates a reliable archive for content governance and rights management.

• Keeps video and supporting compliance documents linked together
• Improves traceability across content approval workflows
• Helps demonstrate rights clearance and publication history

6. Preserve training and learning content for long-term access

Data flow: Brightcove to OpenText InfoArchive

Educational institutions and enterprise learning teams can use Brightcove to deliver active training content while archiving completed courses, recorded sessions, and certification materials in InfoArchive. This ensures that outdated or retired learning content remains accessible for reference, policy review, or regulatory training evidence without cluttering the live video environment.

• Supports retention of mandatory training records
• Improves lifecycle management of learning content
• Reduces operational burden on the active video platform

7. Provide archived video records for legal hold and eDiscovery

Data flow: Bi-directional, with OpenText InfoArchive as the system of record and Brightcove as the source of active content

When litigation, investigations, or regulatory reviews require preservation of video evidence, Brightcove content can be transferred to InfoArchive and placed under legal hold. If needed, archived records can be retrieved back into Brightcove or another review environment for controlled playback and analysis. This workflow helps legal and compliance teams preserve evidence while limiting access and preventing accidental deletion.

• Strengthens legal hold and evidence preservation processes
• Ensures controlled access to sensitive video records
• Supports defensible retention and disposition practices
