Magnolia 3.0 Enterprise Edition Final released
-----------------------------------------------
Magnolia International celebrates Magnolia's third
anniversary with the release of Magnolia Enterprise Edition,
a major upgrade to the leading JSR-170-based Enterprise
Content Management system.
Magnolia Enterprise Edition introduces significant new
features and is backed with unlimited support from Magnolia
International.
Magnolia Enterprise Edition allows you to:
* create custom layout directly in the browser
* display Magnolia content in JSR-168 portals
* authenticate and authorize using directory servers (LDAP,
ADS)
* package content and resources into single entities to
facilitate multi-stage deployments
Magnolia Enterprise Edition is available for download
today from www.magnolia.info
SITEDESIGNER(TM)
In addition to Magnolia's powerful custom template abilities
Magnolia Enterprise Edition introduces Sitedesigner to
create complete web site layouts directly in the browser.
Unlike standard template-based approaches that simply let a
user pick between a couple of predefined layouts,
Sitedesigner completely replaces traditional client-based
web design tools. This has significant benefits:
* fully working prototypes can be build within hours
* new ideas can immediately be realized online
* layout (as well as content) is versioned and changes can
easily be undone
* updates are painless, since no custom templates are
involved
Sitedesigner produces valid XHTML, generates and consumes
RSS, provides functionality for news items, glossaries,
FAQ's, podcasting, multimedia, mp3's, navigation, sitemaps,
imagemaps, custom CSS, analytics and statistics integration,
content inheritance and seamlessly integrates into the
Magnolia document management system. In addition it can
easily be extended with custom functionality without
breaking the upgrade path.
JSR-168 PORTAL SUPPORT
Magnolia EE is delivered with Portal integration that allows
you to publish content to any JSR-168 Portal with Magnolia's
renown ease-of-use.
Magnolia's distributed architecture provides unique benefits
for large-scale portal deployments. Each portal can contain
its own copy of Magnolia as a subscriber to the Magnolia
author environment. This eliminates the traditional
communication bottleneck between a portal and its content
delivery system and allows for unlimited scalability and
speed.
LDAP/ADS DIRECTORY SUPPORT
Magnolia Enterprise Edition uses JAAS, a standard for
authentication and authorization. This standard allows to
use JAAS modules to implement single-sign-on requirements or
connect to existing directory servers. Magnolia contains
functionality to connect to ADS and LDAP servers for user
authentication. This makes it easy to deploy Magnolia in
large scale intranet settings where user management
infrastructure already exists.
PACKAGE MANAGER
The Package Manager allows anybody to bundle arbitrary
content, including templates, files and static resources,
into a single entity. This makes the Package Manager an
ideal tool for custom backups, delivery of updates and
multi-staging scenarios.
Magnolia Enterprise Edition is available for download
today from www.magnolia.info
