Chapter 6. DDL and WCM

A Web Content Management (WCM) system is designed to simplify the publication of web content to both regular websites and mobile devices. In particular, it allows content creators to submit the content without requiring technical knowledge of HTML or the uploading of files.

A WCM is a software system used to control a dynamic collection of web material, such as, HTML documents, images, and other forms of media. While a CMS facilitates document control, auditing, editing, and timeline management, a WCM typically facilitates automated templates, access control, scalable expansion, easily editable content, scalable feature sets, content virtualization, content syndication, multiple languages, versioning, and so on.
