Content Management Server (CMS) is fast becoming a vital
content-management tool that helps administrators and
developers handle the ever-increasing amount of content on
their Web sites. However, an authoritative source of
product information has been missing . . . until now.
Microsoft Content Management Server 2002: A Complete
Guide is the first book that explains how to
effectively unlock the power of CMS. Administrators and
developers alike will learn how to enhance their Web
servers' scalability, flexibility, and extensibility by
using CMS features and API to manage content on the
Microsoft platform.
This thorough reference explains the product
architecture, then shows you how to create and edit content
and use the workflow. Topic coverage includes CMS
administration and security, the Publishing API, deployment
options, site configuration, and template development. A
running example is used throughout the book to illustrate
how important CMS features are implemented in real-world
Web site development. Inside you'll find answers to such
questions as:
- Chapter 6: How do you customize workflow?
- Chapter 10: How do you develop for Microsoft Content
Management Server (CMS) 2002 using Visual Studio .NET?
- Chapter 17: How do you establish user rights?
- Chapter 22: How do you best deploy CMS according to
your organization's needs, size, and resources?
- Chapter 32: How do you publish dynamic data?
Books in the Microsoft Windows Server System Series are
written and reviewed by the world's leading technical
authorities on Microsoft Windows Technologies, including
principal members of Microsoft's Windows and Server
Development Teams. The goal of the series is to provide
reliable information that enables administrators,
developers, and IT professionals to architect, build,
deploy, and manage solutions using the Microsoft Windows
Server System. The contents and code of each book are
tested against, and comply with, commercially available
code. Books published as part of the Microsoft Windows
Server System Series are an invaluable resource for any IT
professional or student working in today's Windows
environment.
