Technical Briefs

Our technical briefs provide you with additional insight into the technical foundation
of our world-class web content management software. For IT, developers and
architects, these briefs provide valuable overviews about architecture, storage
and extension options for SDL Tridion.

Open & Extensible Architecture

We at SDL understand that our solutions are part of a bigger ecosystem in your organization. As such, we take great care in adopting established industry-standards for opening up our solution so that it fits into your IT landscape.

Cloud Readiness

“Cloud” is the buzz word of the moment; organizations and software vendors alike are told that they have to “be in the cloud”. There is a need for being in the cloud, but like “going mobile” we must be doing it for the right reasons that serve overall organizational goals.

Reliable & scalable infrastructure

SDL Tridion supports the standard load balancing and clustering scenarios and can deploy content to multiple datacenters consistently and transaction safe: if on-premise or to the cloud is your choice. And the SDL Tridion monitoring services will ensure that you always know exactly what is going on in your datacenters.

How to tackle integrations

SDL Tridion comes with a broad extension framework. This document explains how to utilize the standardized interfaces to integrate SDL Tridion with your IT ecosystem.

How To Tackle Content Delivery Networks

This article outlines how you can take advantage of the new extensible storage model to integrate with a CDN when publishing and unpublishing content to/from your website.

Extending Content Broker Storage

SDL Tridion’s Content Delivery storage layer allows seamless integration of both the Content Broker and proprietary storage in one layer. This makes it easier to extend data sources into multiple distinct storage environments, which are accessed through the same API.
