Dynamic & Static Publishing
Publishing Options
Flexibility in content publishing:
- Dynamic site generation delivers web page content from the database cache in real time, as a page hit occurs.
- Static site generation copies the website as flat HTML (or ASP, JSP etc.) files on a periodic basis (once an hour for example) from a server other than the live host. This allows for the live site to be hosted from a separate location to the live CMS server e.g. an Internet ISP or managed hosting centre.
Dynamically static site generation is a combination of static and dynamic site generation, where pages that are updated infrequently are updated using the static model and those that are updated frequently are updated using the dynamic model.
