SilkRoad technology's Eprise 2004, a new release of the content management system (CMS), gets very good marks overall, especially for distribution of Web content management among non-technical users and for dynamic content customization for each visitor. Performance is better, especially for large configurations, and Eprise 2004 integrates well with other applications. During testing in a secure, three-tier data center environment with three load-balanced multiprocessor Web servers connected to three Eprise 2004 application servers that fed a Microsoft SQL 2000 database cluster, testers found Eprise 2004 to be more dependable in several instances. Cache synchronization is now fault-tolerant so that all servers have a copy of the most recent if one goes offline. Eprise 2004 is also qualified for Microsoft Windows Server 2003 so that users get the advantages of the operating system's (OS) improved stability, security, and application partitioning. Content replication could be improved, since the present process is complex and somewhat task-intensive, since users must manually transfer content files from one database server to another. Eprise 2004 is a very good value and economically priced and should be considered. With the new Eprise Software as a Service option, Eprise 2004 is a low-risk choice for pilot or departmental projects.
