Free But Not Cheap: Open Source Content Management Systems

by John Harney

Content management is a product space traditionally dominated by large vendors of conventionally installed systems such as Interwoven and Vignette. Their products have been around long enough to be feature-rich, robust, and scalable. It's not unusual for a customer using one of these systems to support multiple Web sites in multiple languages with 50,000 or more Web pages and hundreds of content authors with tens of thousands of hits per day. That performance comes at a price, however -- oftentimes in excess of US $1 million.
