 WHAT IS CONTENT
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (CMS) ?

A Content Management System is a software application used to create and

design the web content online. It allows the users to manage the digital
content easily by providing access to features like database handling, smart
reporting, archiving, designing and animation features etc. These are
generally used in Enterprise Content Management (ECM) and Web Content
Management (WCM). To design a web content programmer generally need
knowledge of programming languages like Html and CSS. Other new
languages like Angular and NodeJS are also there to build more effective
web pages. But for naive creators with no knowledge of such languages can
easily use features of a CMS and create web pages, websites and no
programming knowledge is required.

STRUCTURE
A CMs mainly has two major components. First is the Content Management Application (CMA)
which is used to allow user to create and design the web pages using drag and drop features.
It helps in creators to add, modify, and delete content from the web pages. Second is the
Content Delivery Application (CDA), is usually responsible for compiling the information and
updating the webpage. It works after the user makes all the changes ready to be published

WHAT MAKES UP A CONTENT MANAGEMENT

SYSTEM?
ON A MORE TECHNICAL LEVEL, A CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEM IS MADE
UP OF TWO CORE PARTS:

• A CONTENT MANAGEMENT APPLICATION (CMA) – THIS IS THE

PART THAT ALLOWS YOU TO ACTUALLY ADD AND MANAGE CONTENT ON
YOUR SITE (LIKE YOU SAW ABOVE).

• A CONTENT DELIVERY APPLICATION (CDA) – THIS IS THE BACKEND,

BEHIND-THE-SCENES PROCESS THAT TAKES THE CONTENT YOU INPUT IN THE
CMA, STORES IT PROPERLY, AND MAKES IT VISIBLE TO YOUR VISITORS.

TOGETHER, THE TWO SYSTEMS MAKE IT EASY TO MAINTAIN YOUR WEBSITE.

BEYOND THE SELF-HOSTED WORDPRESS SOFTWARE, OTHER POPULAR

CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS INCLUDE:

• JOOMLA

• DRUPAL
• MAGENTO (FOR ECOMMERCE STORES

MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS THAT TARGET THEMSELVES TO LARGE ENTERPRISES
