Allow content contributors to build and contribute richly formatted content in easy-to-use templates without leaving the Web site.
Real-Time Content Updates

Caching of content objects in RAM and on the disk ensure that dynamic page assembly and serving is fast.
SMP Support
Support for multiple CPUs on Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Windows® 2000 DataCenter Server ensures handling of high serving loads that are common with enterprise Web sites.
