As already mentioned on the webpage before, a content management system, short “CMS”, is a special system that is used for the collective creation, development, editing, adaption and organization of any kind of content. Strictly speaking we are talking about different forms of content consisting of text and different multimedia documents. A content management system is very easy to handle. So it enables nearly every person without any programming or HTML knowledge to use it as a blog or webpage. Any kind of content can easily be added into the backend which works like a general word-editor. Consequently the respective information content gets saved and is displayed in the so-called frontend – in other words – on the webpage itself.
Creating a website by means of a so-called content management system also requires special hardware. Strictly speaking a web space or a server is needed in order to save data (text, pictures, photos, movies, clips, sounds, songs, etc.) and consequently display them in the frontend. In this context it has to be stressed that the respective kind or type of hardware does always depend on the content management system. Exemplary famous and very popular content management systems are for instance Drupal, TYPO3, Joomla! and WordPress.
You do have a webpage in the form of a content management system? Everything works perfectly apart from the hardware? In the case of having problems with hardware, strictly speaking with the server or the web space, we recommend to seek technical advice.

As already mentioned before, different types of content management systems do need different hardware. WordPress is commonly used as blog software. In the case of using WordPress as a general website, no special hardware like a high-capacity server is needed. Consequently, content management systems that run by means of WordPress can be put on a normal web space.
Joomla! on the contrary is more complex than WordPress. This is the reason why content management systems via Joomla! should be put on a bigger web hosting or even a virtual server.
TYPO3 represents a server-side content management system. So-called server-side content management systems need a server-side programming language which is usually linked to a database. The database is typically either located on the same server or one or even more servers on the very same local area network. This enables data to be managed worldwide directly though the Internet. Furthermore it can be said that server-side content management systems are suitable for websites of any size.
