At the moment, he is wriing his thesis on current database trends. Besides that, he's working as a freelance IT trainer and web developer, mostly using SilverStripe, but also Drupal, CakePHP, and Smarty. He started using SilverStripe in 2007 as one of the Google Summer of Code students improving the project, beginning with the efort to support muliple databases (besides MySQL). During this, he got a detailed insight into the inner workings of the project. Since then he's been in love with SilverStripe... Philipp is currently employed at the University of Technology, Vienna as diplomate for an industry project and as IT training manager at Splendit IT Consuling GmbH. When doing freelance work he's frequently working for men on the moon GmbH, on SilverStripe projects, or as IT trainer for SPC GmbH. Even when working on something inspiring, wriing a book is actually hard work—lo and behold ;-). Therefore a huge THANK YOU to the people making it possible! Packt Publishing for channeling my enthusiasm into something useful, while helping wherever they could. "Danke" to Michelle Quadros for making our schedule work out, and also Tarun Singh, Meeta Rajani, Hithesh Uchil, and Aaron Rosario for keeping me on the right track. Ingo Schommer from SilverStripe Ltd. lent more than one helping hand in the creaion of this book. Addiionally he and my other two reviewers Sigurd Magnusson (SilverStripe Ltd.) and Aaron Carlino (Bluehouse Group) provided crucial input—without you the book would only be half as good. Last but not least my girl, family, and friends, who lost me for months to wriing this book. Without you providing the right background this would have been impossible! www.allitebooks.com About the Reviewers Aaron Carlino is a web developer who is beter known in the SilverStripe community by his whimsical pseudonym "Uncle Cheese". He has been doing web development since 2005, and has found his niche in SilverStripe programming ater an exhausive search for a content management soluion that was welcoming to developers and would stay out of his way. Since then, he has established a strong reputaion in the SilverStripe community as a mentor, support provider, and, most notably, a contributor of some of the applicaion's most popular modules including DataObjectManager, ImageGallery, and Uploadify. During the day, he is employed full-ime at Bluehouse Group as lead SilverStripe developer, surrounded by a team of talented designers, programmers, and HTML developers. At Bluehouse Group, he has worked on several sophisicated web applicaions built on SilverStripe, including All Earth Renewables, ISI, and Yestermorrow. In his spare ime, he keeps his SilverStripe thirst quenched by entertaining a variety of freelance projects which range from ad-hoc support work for his modules to full-featured web applicaions, including Xeic.org. In addiion, he has almost always worked on new open-source contribuions to the SilverStripe CMS, because, quite frankly, he can't get enough of it. When he is not coding, he usually thinks about what he'd like to code, and when he's not doing that, he enjoys cooking (and subsequently photographing) all kinds of delicious foods. He is also a talented guitar player and French speaker, as well as a connoisseur of all things Elvis Costello. He lives a blessed and charmed life in beauiful northwestern Vermont with his wife and shih-tzu, Oscar. Ingo Schommer is a senior developer at SilverStripe Ltd. in Wellington, New Zealand. He is responsible for large scale web applicaion development. Not enirely by chance, he is also a core team member and release manager for the SilverStripe project. Originally hailing from Germany, he was co-author of the irst SilverStripe book in his naive tongue, quickly followed by an English translaion. He's always keen to spread the word about his favorite CMS, and hence thrilled to see a Packt publicaion on this topic. www.allitebooks.com Sigurd Magnusson is one of the three co-founders of SilverStripe Ltd (http:// silverstripe.com/). He has been in this business for more than ten years and currently focuses on sales and markeing. He's been living and breathing the Internet since 1995, when his city council provided the only local internet service, enirely text-based at the ime. The potenial of the Internet piqued his interest and he began learning computer programming. While his days at SilverStripe are no longer spent propgramming, he coninues to be deeply interested in the technology advances of the Web. Sigurd is an evangelist for the principles and technology of the Web, and is an avid supporter of open source, open data, and the Web as a modern sotware plaform. He is very familiar with both the commercial and open source segments of the web content management industry, and he inluences the direcion of the open source SilverStripe CMS and Sapphire framework. Of the Web, he enjoys spending ime with his family, cross-country mountain biking in New Zealand, and experiencing foreign cultures. www.allitebooks.com www.PacktPub.com Support files, eBooks, discount offers and more You might want to visit www.PacktPub.com for support iles and downloads related to your book.

Also contains different types of tools and software. Content Management (CM) is the process for collection, delivery, retrieval, governance and overall management of information in any format. The term is typically used in reference to administration of the digital content lifecycle, from creation to permanent storage or deletion. The content involved may be images, video, audio and multimedia as well as text. A Content Management System (CMS) is a computer application that supports the creation and modification of digital content. It is typically used to support multiple users working in a collaborative environment. A Content Management System (CMS) is a tool for creating and managing digital content such as documents, text, web pages, videos and images.A content management system (CMS) is a software application or set of related programs that are used to create and manage digital content. CMSes are typically used for Enterprise Content Management (ECM) and Web Content Management (WCM). An ECM facilitates collaboration in the workplace by integrating document management, digital asset management and records retention functionalities, and providing end users with role-based access to the organization's digital assets. A WCM facilitates collaborative authoring for websites. ECM software often includes a WCM publishing functionality, but ECM webpages typically remain behind the organization's firewall.

    Harrison Oriahi CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS (CMS) CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS (CMS) Harrison Oriahi Bachelor’s thesis Autumn 2014 Degree Programme in Information Technology Oulu University of Applied Sciences ABSTRACT Oulu University of Applied Sciences Degree in Information Technology, Internet Services Author(s): Harrison Oriahi Title of Bachelor’s thesis: Content Management Systems Supervisor(s): Veijo Väisänen Term and year of completion: Autumn 2014 Number of pages: 48 + 3 appendices ABSTRACT: This thesis describes the three most common and widely used content management systems (CMS) used to power several millions of business websites on the internet. Since there are many other content managements systems online, this report provides some helpful guides on each of these three most used systems and the web design projects that each of them maybe most suitable. There are plenty of options when it comes to selecting a content management system for a development project and this thesis focuses on making a detailed comparison between the three most commonly used ones. This comparison will help provide a clear understanding of why a content management system maybe preferred to the other when considering any web design project. To help detect the content management system (CMS) or development platform that an already existing website is built on, some helpful website analyzing tools are also discussed in this report. By reading this report, a reader with no previous experience with content management systems will be able to have a general view on what they are, what the commonly used ones are and what to consider when making a choice of content management system to use.

    Agenda Item II.O. Society of American Archivists Council Meeting August 25, 2008 San Francisco, California Report: Website Working Group (Prepared by Brian Doyle, Chair) WORKING GROUP MEMBERS Brian Doyle, Chair Gregory Colati Christine Di Bella Chatham Ewing Jeanne Kramer-Smyth Mark Matienzo Aprille McKay Christopher Prom Seth Shaw Bruce Ambacher, Council Liaison BACKGROUND For several years, there has been a keen and growing interest among SAA’s members in the deployment of a robust content management system (CMS) featuring state-of-the-art Web 2.0 applications—wikis, blogs, RSS feeds, etc. While these types of programs are often associated with social networking, a comprehensive CMS would also redress a number of important organizational challenges that SAA faces: • How can SAA’s component groups (e.g., boards, committees, task forces, etc.) collaborate more effectively in an online environment? • How can official documents (e.g., minutes, reports, newsletters, etc.) be more easily published to the Web by SAA’s component groups, described and accessed via appropriate metadata, and scheduled for retention? • How can SAA enhance its online publishing capabilities and ensure that the necessary tools are available for authorized subject experts to edit and update such official electronic publications as Richard Pearce-Moses’ Glossary of Archival and Records Management Terminology , DACS Online, and the EAD Help Pages, as well as such important resources as an SAA standards portal or the Technology Best Practices Task Force working document? Report: Website Working Group Page 1 of 17 0808-1-WebWG-IIO SAA’s existing Web technology does not adequately fulfill these needs.

  • Evaluation of Password Hashing Schemes in Open Source Web
    Evaluation of Password Hashing Schemes in Open Source Web Platforms Christoforos Ntantogian, Stefanos Malliaros, Christos Xenakis Department of Digital Systems, University of Piraeus, Piraeus, Greece {dadoyan, stefmal, xenakis}@unipi.gr Abstract: Nowadays, the majority of web platforms in the Internet originate either from CMS to easily deploy websites or by web applications frameworks that allow developers to design and implement web applications. Considering the fact that CMS are intended to be plug and play solutions and their main aim is to allow even non-developers to deploy websites, we argue that the default hashing schemes are not modified when deployed in the Internet. Also, recent studies suggest that even developers do not use appropriate hash functions to protect passwords, since they may not have adequate security expertise. Therefore, the default settings of CMS and web applications frameworks play an important role in the security of password storage. This paper evaluates the default hashing schemes of popular CMS and web application frameworks. First, we formulate the cost time of password guessing attacks and next we investigate the default hashing schemes of popular CMS and web applications frameworks. We also apply our framework to perform a comparative analysis of the cost time between the various CMS and web application frameworks. Finally, considering that intensive hash functions consume computational resources, we analyze hashing schemes from a different perspective. That is, we investigate if it is feasible and under what conditions to perform slow rate denial of service attacks from concurrent login attempts. Through our study we have derived a set of critical observations.

  • Making User-Friendly Experiences That Leverage Online Collaboration
    Making user-friendly experiences that leverage online collaboration BY JUAN SEBASTIAN PAZ A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Design Innovation Victoria University of Wellington 2019 1 A 90-point thesis submitted to Victoria University of Wellington in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Design Innovation in Media Design By Juan Sebastian Paz MDI specialising in Media Design Victoria University of Wellington School of Design 2018 2 Abstract The recent rapid advancements in web technologies has led to an increase in the development of new devices, applications and methods of interaction that are continually evolving. However, the rate of these technological advancements outpaces those of design. This has also given rise to a new way of understanding how to work and collaborate online. Interestingly, in addition to this understanding came a corresponding increase in the frequency of online collaborations. A good example of this is a content management system. This system gives the ability for multiple users to collaborate online with the goal to maintain and create content for a website. However, during the time of writing this thesis, most content management systems come with limited functionality and not as user-friendly as they could be. As most of this systems are used by non tech-savvy users. This thesis sets to understand social aspects of online collaboration, new design methodology, and to design and develop a user-friendly interface for both front-end and back-end admin area to leverage the online collaboration within an educational setting.

  • Choosing Craft CMS Over Wordpress a Look at Two Different Content Management Systems from a Developer’S Perspective
    Choosing Craft CMS over Wordpress A look at two different content management systems from a developer’s perspective Joel Ström EXAMENSARBETE Arcada Utbildningsprogram: Online Media & Art Direction Identifikationsnummer: 15378 Författare: Joel Ström Arbetets namn: Choosing Craft CMS over Wordpress Handledare (Arcada): Owen Kelly Uppdragsgivare: Yrkeshögskolan Arcada Sammandrag: Då det gäller att välja ett CMS finns det flera saker som måste tänkas på. I dagens läge är det allt viktigare att systemet man väljer passar projektet i fråga. Det finns en hel del system på marknaden som löser problem på olika sätt, men i detta arbete kommer jag att koncentrera mig på de populäraste systemet, Wordpress, samt Craft CMS som är en relativt ny tävlare. Jag kommer att ytligt gå igenom vad som CMS är, varför man skulle använda CMS, samt introducera både Wordpress of Craft CMS. Jag kommer att gå djupare in på hur båda systemen används, och demonstrera kod med hjälp av praktiska exempel. Allt detta sker från en webbutvecklares perspektiv. För att komma till en slutsats har jag gjort flera jämförelser mellan dessa två system. Förutom mina egna åsikter och resultat analyserar jag data som jag samlat från en frågeformulär som skickades åt andra utvecklare, och från en expert intervju var jag intervjuade två kollegor från min arbetsplats. En längre sammanfattning på svenska kan hittas i slutet av arbetet.
