dotCMS is a scalable, java based, open source content management system (CMS) that has been designed to manage and deliver personalized, permission-based content experiences across multiple channels. dotCMS can serve as the platform for sites, mobile apps, mini-sites, portals, intranets or as a headless CMS (content is consumed via RESTful APIs). dotCMS is used everywhere, from running small sites to powering multi-node installations for governments, Fortune 100 companies, Universities and Global Brands. A dotCMS environment can scale to support hundreds of editors managing thousands of sites with millions of content objects.
dotCMS is available for download or as a cloud based product.
