SilverStripe: Up-and-coming

Keeping an eye on SilverStripe

Our development is constantly on top of new and exciting technologies. SilverStripe is one of those up-and-coming technologies. As SilverStripe develops into a full-fledged CMS, we are making sure we watch its developments and are ready when it is.

What is SilverStripe?

SilverStripe is an open source content management system (CMS) for creating and managing websites through a simple web interface. It has many advanced features. These features include an MVC framework, XHTML compliance, multiple ways of organising navigation through folksonomy, a flexible data object model, multiple templates per page, a separate "draft site" and "published site through staging content, asset management , image resizing, versioning and rollback, SEF URLs with meta-data. It also deploys content through RSS and full text search, including searching of PDF's and Word documents.

What's Exciting about SilverStripe?

SilverStripe has recently come under the wing of Google. Google has begun offering resources to develop and support SilverStripe. This means that SilverStripe will be very accessable and search engine friendly. For us, this is a big advance in the world of CMS. We'll be keeping our eye on this one and will offer it when it's time comes.
