What is a CMS?

C- Content M-Management S-System

Content
Content is in essence, any type or 'unit'

of digital information.
It can be text, images, graphics, video,
sound, documents, records etc

or in other words, it can be anything

that is likely to be stored and managed


in an electronic format.

Management
Because the information

being managed is digital in


nature the method of
managing is also typically
conducted electronically.
The Management refers to
the process of storing content
via rules and process (or a
combination of the same) often with associated
workflows - so that the
content is deemed to be

System
The System itself is
definable as a software
tool, or combination of
software tools, that
facilitate the efficient and
effective management of
the content so as to
achieve the desired
'output (which can be
electronic or hardcopy).
..

Combining all three definitions we


get the following;
A CMS is a software tool that enables groups
of (centralised) technical and (decentralised) non technical staff to store,
create, edit, manage and publish a variety
of digital content types to an intended
audience, whilst being constrained during
the content process by a centralised set of
rules, process and workflows that ensure
coherent, validated and managed
electronic content is produced.

So how come there are so many


CMS Solutions?
Given that there are many different types of digital

content...it follows that there are many different


types of CMS these are the most common examples;
Web Content Management
Document Management
Records Management
Collaboration including Web 2.0 (Forums, Blogs)
Digital Asset Management
Portal Content Management
Enterprise Content Management (all off the above)

Which CMS is right for me ?


The type of CMS that meets your
requirements will depend on the
type or types of content you wish
to manage, the size of your
organisation, in-house resources,
size and type of content experience
you are managingand many
other factors..
