1: DEFINITION
 hat is a Content Management System?
C.M.S encompassed a wide array of the back-end office applications.
It ranges from a customer database, to a billing system, to an
enterprise wide knowledge based system.
In a clearest definition (Fig. 1), C.M.S composed of:
-
Input - Web-based forms
-
Storage - Database
-
Output - Reports
It is a wide-breadth definition covered most, if not all, type of
business applications, but it is not overstating the important of C.M.S
applications.

The next level up from a C.M.S is the prepackaged C.M.S application,
and there are many prepackaged C.M.S applications available in the
market (Fig. 2).
 They range from a single-use
application, such as, Quickbook, Louts Notes, Crystal Reports and
Excel, to the enterprise-wide application, such as, Oracle´s Billing
system and the IBM´s WebSphere eCommerce solution2.
The key difference between GreenTomato Software LLC customized C.M.S
applications and the prepackaged C.M.S applications lies in the
Business Logic module. The Business Logic module defines the
application´s workflow, controls the access, manages the security,
verifies the input data, and formats the output reports.
If you find a prepackaged C.M.S application that meet your business
need and have access to support, then by all means, purchase that
prepackaged C.M.S application and enjoy the additional productivity
gained.
But if you are unable to find a prepackaged C.M.S application or
simply don´t have the time and resource to build one, then you need
GreenTomato Software LLC expertise in developing customized C.M.S
applications that derived from your Business Logic.
The end result is a C.M.S application that dovetails perfectly to
your business.
