Choosing A CMS Solution For Java Application Architecture

With widespread access to the Internet, people prefer to do many of their favourite jobs online—like shopping, banking, attending meetings, etc. Earlier, tasks requiring online (Web based) technology proved to be costly due to resources and other constraints. Nowadays, with the invention and widespread usage of cloud computing as well as access to shared or rentable resources over the Net, people prefer online computing to a great extent.

A CMS (content management system) comprises a set of techniques and features to handle shared data and to manage the related workflow. Knowledge management sites (sharing articles and technical query forums) are examples of a CMS. Content management is coupled with workflow management (like a series/sequence of predefined workflows for handling content). To make it simpler, since the volume of users online is too huge for handling unauthorised content publishing, a gateway is provided for the approval process (like upload, accept, approve, publish, share) which is defined with different stages, before becoming available to public users.
