"Open Source is the most significant all-encompassing and long-term trend that the software industry has seen since the early 1980's."

Hippo: open source Enterprise Content Management & portal software

Content Management is a key competence and practice within Sourcesense. Our architects and engineers have a proven track record in providing customers with scalable and flexible CMS solutions. We strongly believe that Content Management is not a "one size fits all" solution, and we favor tools and frameworks that strongly separate presentation from management, using standard and neutral technologies such as XML, JSR170 and WebDAV to connect the two. This is the main reason for our strategic partnership with Hippo: Hippo CMS is a flexible Content Management System rigorously based on web standards and targeted at medium to large organizations managing content for multi-channel distribution.

Sourcesense has been using Hippo CMS since its inception, actively participating to the evolution of the framework and its underlying technologies. Sourcesense has an extensive service offering based on Hippo CMS:

  • Consultancy and assistance in evaluation, assessment and proof of concept
  • Architecture and implementation design
  • Training, mentoring and coaching
  • Integration with front-end architectures and implementation of complex and interactive web sites and portals

  • Implementation and integration services
  • Localised support
