—Ed Robinson, Lead Program Manager, Microsoft Corporation“Content management is a complex, multifaceted application area, and Microsoft’s CMS Server is a complex product. This book sets out everything you could possibly need or want to know about CMS. The title could easily be The CMS Resource Kit since it will be an essential addition to the library of any IT professional or developer working on content management and Microsoft’s CMS.”
—Thomas Lee, Chief Technologist, QAContent Management Server (CMS) is fast becoming a vital content-management tool that helps administrators and developers handle the ever-increasing amount of content on their Web sites. However, an authoritative source of product information has been missing . . . until now.
Microsoft Content Management Server 2002: A Complete Guide is the first book that explains how to effectively unlock the power of CMS. Administrators and developers alike will learn how to enhance their Web servers’ scalability, flexibility, and extensibility by using CMS features and API to manage content on the Microsoft platform.
This thorough reference explains the product architecture, then shows you how to create and edit content and use the workflow. Topic coverage includes CMS administration and security, the Publishing API, deployment options, site configuration, and template development. A running example is used throughout the book to illustrate how important CMS features are implemented in real-world Web site development. Inside you’ll find answers to such questions as:
- Chapter 6: How do you customize workflow?
- Chapter 10: How do you develop for Microsoft Content Management Server (CMS) 2002 using Visual Studio .NET?
- Chapter 17: How do you establish user rights?
- Chapter 22: How do you best deploy CMS according to your organization’s needs, size, and resources?

A must have resource but..., By
This review is from: Microsoft Content Management Server 2002: A Complete Guide (Paperback)
There is a lot of excellent information in this book. I was just disappointed that there wasn't more depth in the areas of interest to me. I wanted more details, like when it comes to an upgrade path from CMS2001 - what are the limitations(for example: is there a maximum database size or channel count that the upgrade tool can handle?) or gotchas? What things have changed? However, there were only three pages on upgrading from CMS2001 in this 1000 page book.As another example, there was some interesting sample code in the Tips & techniques section, but they didn't give a complete usage scenario of the bit that interested me, so I wasn't sure how to implement the sample that interested me. I must say that I was impressed that this book was so thick yet not padded with the usual repetitive and excess verbiage. It is all good content. This book is the most comprehensive resource I've found. I've been going back and forth between MSDN articles and the documentation that comes... Read more

Poor Layout. Not for beginners., By Bartio06 (Howard County, MD) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Microsoft Content Management Server 2002: A Complete Guide (Paperback)
I bought this book to help my client evaluate CMS 2002. First few weeks with the book was agonising to read through. The author explains in verbose text about something and you have to read through it all coz you dont know what is fluff or where he might say something useful! I read through the documents that came with CMS 2002 last week and there is one called SiteDevl.chm which has a chapter on how to Use VS.net to create a CMS web site. I finished the whole chapter in about an hour creating my site simultaneously. Since I did a web site from scratch I had a better understanding how to use various CMS components! First read this help file before you buy this book.I went through the first 286 pages of this book and was yet struggling. Then I read through this help file that comes with CMS which has 36 pages now the difference is like day and night! Since there are no other good book available you have to get this book just coz you odnt have a choice. There is a new... Read more

Book needs more focus. Maybe OK for a beginner.,

This review is from: Microsoft Content Management Server 2002: A Complete Guide (Paperback)
First, a note on my background, since it may have increased my frustration with this book. I have been developing (ASP/COM, ASP.NET) for a long time, and have built numerous custom DB-driven content mgmt systems from scratch. So, I was hoping for a quick introduction of the CMS paradigm this product uses, followed by specific guidance on how to implement realistic sites with the product. Not what I got. This material might be more helpful to a traditional "webmaster" role (who knows just a little C#), but if you already understand concepts like templates and publishing workflows the book wastes a lot of your time.The book does not need to be 1000 pages long: |
