Infopark Cloud Express: CMS, WebCRM, Elastic Web Platform
In the past Infopark gained a lot of expertise in the field of web architecture by developing Infopark CMS Fiona. The result is a pioneering technology in combination with genuine innovation.
Great Websites On-Demand.
As the first ECMS-developer we offer the possibility to run websites in the Cloud with Infopark Cloud Express. Infopark Cloud Express is based on Platform as a Service (PaaS) and comprises three components: CMS, WebCRM and Elastic Web Platform. This integrative approach guarantees that the individual components are well-matched and harmonize perfectly. Information is provided company-wide and is accessible via a browser based user interface. As Infopark Cloud Express is based on Amazon Web Services (EC2/ELB/S3/CloudFront) as Infrastructure as a Service it is easy to add additional capacities if necessary in an instant.
Fast and Intuitive - a CMS for Cutting-edge Websites.
The CMS component of Infopark Cloud Express combines tried and tested Content Management features with advanced Cloud features. Thanks to the multi-client capability of the CMS it is easy to maintain several different websites and large amounts of content. The Content Delivery Network guarantees a high speed, highest availability and very low loading times. Collaborative content editing, drag & drop features and the support of mobile devices make working with Infopark Cloud Express intuitive and efficient. Infopark Cloud Express is also the first ECMS based on Ruby on Rails that is able to display fully dynamic websites. The Cloud architecture offers the CMS at the touch of a button.
Powerful and Precise. The WebCRM for Online Dialogue.
Online marketing campaigns can be easily synced with new contents thanks to the integrated WebCRM. The WebCRM is equipped with lots of modules for online marketing experts and web administrators: flexible contact and data base maintenance, website integration, detailed web-controlling, web analysis, powerful newsletter management as well as tools to manage requests and events. The WebCRM is easy to use and as it cooperates with the CMS it is highly efficient. Lead data can be generated through the website, analyzed individual-related and be used for marketing campaigns in conjunction with the website’s visitors profile. This way a loop is created optimizing the online contents of your website.
Cutting-edge and Efficient. The Elastic Web Platform for Websites On-Demand.
The Elastic Web Platform (EWP) is the first European development environment in the Cloud which is especially tailored to implement complex CMS projects and web applications. It serves to standardize and helps to simplify the development of web applications on the basis of Ruby on Rails. The Elastic Web Platform is efficient and modern at the same time as it is pre-configured and ready to use. The Cloud services cover the following fields:
- Version management
- Error control
- Performance control
- Document-oriented database
- Cloud-/multi-client enabled search function
- Management platform to maintain the Amazon EC2-entities
