Jahia the Open Source Web Content Management (WCM) for high-end deployments

Jahia: an Enterprise Class Software


Installing Jahia on a server takes only minutes. All you need are the components that are already pre-packaged in the Jahia installer for Linux or Windows. A web wizard guides the administrator and installs Jahia in a few clicks. You get the benefit and power of standard open source frameworks bundled in a enterprise-grade hassle-free package.

 

  • Open Source and Open Standard

    The Jahia WCM pre-integrates and leverages the best available Java open-source libraries. Jahia itself is fully available under the well-known GPL. Finally Jahia tries to comply as much as possible with existing open standards. This mix makes Jahia one of the most open Java-based WCM business solutions available today.

     
  • High Volume, Performance and Availability

    Dealing with high-volume web sites and high-availability servers while maintaining effective and if possible linear performance, is easier said than done. These factors, in combination with distributed environments and the possible inclusion of dynamic micro-applications on any web page, give an idea of the complexity of such systems.

     
  • Enterprise Connectors

    Jahia was specifically designed to be smoothly integrated with all your other enterprise servers. Be sure not to install another content silo: choose your WCM carefully and choose the one that will be able to evolve in your existing IT ecosystem.

     
 
 

Built-In Ultra-Fast Reverse HTML Cache Proxy

  • Built-in HTML cache proxy to speed up access to content and pages: developed with ultra-fast performance and high load delivery in mind
  • Granular ESI-inspired HTML cache proxy: each content item is cached independently
  • Permission-based cache sharing capabilities: to reduce memory footprints, cache fragments are shared among users based on their authorizations.
     

Password Policy Module

  • Enforce a stronger password policy on your users logins
  • Build powerful security schemes with minimum length, mandatory characters requirements, expiration schemes after a certain number of days, etc.
  • Pre-integrated with each user's personal settings page and his login action: when a user password expires or need to be changed, the user is automatically redirected to his personal settings pages for modification
     

Single Sign-On and Other Authentication Systems

  • Native supports for most SSO standards such as CAS, JAAS or Kerberos.
  • Connect one or several LDAP/Active Directory servers to your Jahia system with support for both users and groups.
  • Possible cookie-based authentication
  • Add any other proprietary third-party authentication system thanks to the flexible and extendable user provider mechanism.

Dynamic Site Replication

  • Automatically replicate one, some or all your virtual sites on remote front-end Jahia servers: ideal for split environments with distinct authoring and publishing servers or for developing both your public-facing and intranet initiatives behind the firewall and replicating your public web site on your unsecured servers only occasionally.
  • Cron-based replication on a per-virtual-site basis: decide when you want the replication to occur - every hour, during the night or once a week.
  • Replicate only incremental differences to minimize bandwidth impact
  • WebDAV-based replication going through your http port. No need to open a new unsecured port on your firewall and create new security holes
     

XML Import/Export

  • Export and import any content item, section, site or the whole content repository in XML
  • Ideal for migration or backing up backup purposes
  • Rapidly export and reimport a temporarily overloaded virtual site in a dedicated environment so as not cause problems on other hosted virtual sites
  • Use the XML import capabilities as a site or section skeleton: rapidly replicate a pre-define structure dozens or hundreds of times
  • Ideal for developing rapid performance benchmarks on a high-volume web site with fictitious pre-populated content.
     

Administration and Monitoring Center

  • Built-in web-based administration and monitoring center to let site administrators manage their sites on their own
  • Control current ongoing back-end processes (workflow tasks, replication jobs,...) or the underlying caches from within your browser
  • Manage users, groups, roles, templates, portlets, security schemas, ontologies or default settings directly from the administration center
  • Built-in wizard to help you create a new web site in a couple of seconds
