Content Management Framework for Dynamic Website Updates
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current content management systems require significant technical knowledge and assistance from development organizations, limiting business users' ability to manage website content, especially for dynamic and personalized content, and do not support real-time updates without server restarts.
Innovation Solution
A content management framework that allows business users to create and manage content without internal structure knowledge, using data capture templates, XML constructs, and custom JAVA tags for dynamic behavior, enabling personalization, categorization, and real-time updates without server restarts, leveraging existing resources and infrastructure.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Ease of operation
If business users are empowered to manage website content without development assistance, then ease of operation is improved, but device complexity increases due to need for sophisticated content management framework
Solution Approach 1:
The patent introduces a content management framework as an intermediary layer between business users and the underlying server infrastructure. This framework provides user-friendly interfaces and abstractions that hide the complexity of server-side operations, allowing business users to manage content without needing to understand or interact with the complex underlying systems.
Solution Approach 2:
The framework enables business users to perform content management tasks independently through self-service capabilities. Users can create, edit, and deploy content directly through the framework's interfaces without requiring development organization assistance, while the framework automatically handles the complex technical operations in the background.
2Productivity
If dynamic content is supported with real-time updates without server restart, then productivity is improved, but device complexity increases due to need for sophisticated deployment mechanisms
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic content capabilities that allow content to be updated and deployed in real-time without requiring server restarts. The framework supports dynamic generation of content based on current system state and enables rapid deployment of content changes, allowing the system to adapt and respond to changing business needs instantly.
Solution Approach 2:
The framework performs preliminary actions by pre-compiling and caching content templates and structures before deployment. This allows content to be rapidly deployed and updated without requiring full server restarts, as the framework can instantly substitute new content for existing content using pre-prepared resources.
3Adaptability or versatility
If content can be customized and personalized to specific end-users, then adaptability is improved, but device complexity increases due to need for sophisticated personalization infrastructure
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements local quality by allowing different content to be presented to different users based on their individual characteristics and preferences. The framework enables content customization at the user level, allowing each user to receive personalized content while the overall system structure remains unified and manageable.
Solution Approach 2:
The framework performs preliminary actions by pre-defining content templates, structures, and personalization rules that can be dynamically applied to different users. This allows the system to prepare personalized content in advance without requiring complex real-time generation, reducing the operational complexity of personalization.
4Ease of operation
If content can be grouped and managed by content type, then ease of operation is improved, but device complexity increases due to need for sophisticated content organization structures
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies segmentation by organizing content into distinct content types and categories that can be independently managed and manipulated. The framework divides the content management task into manageable segments based on content type, allowing users to organize and manage content in a structured manner without encountering overwhelming complexity.
Solution Approach 2:
The framework implements universality by providing a unified content management interface that works across different content types. The same user-friendly interfaces and management mechanisms can be applied to various content types (text, images, videos, etc.), eliminating the need for separate management systems for each content type and reducing overall system complexity.
Data Source
AI summary
Computer-implemented methods and systems for creating and managing website content involve, for example, providing a user at a computer terminal a data capture template for a user-selected content type, providing the user at the computer terminal presentation pages using content management tags, allowing the user at the computer terminal to author content using the data capture template, and allowing the user at the computer terminal to deploy the content to a server. Other aspects of the methods and systems for creating and managing website content include, for example, allowing the user to personalize content, allowing the user to embed dynamic content in the middle of static content, allowing the user to refresh the deployed content in real-time without impacting current existing user sessions on the server where content is being deployed.
