Looking for a new way to manage your web site? GetSimple is the newest content management system to get my attention, and I have to say – it does look impressive.
Probably the one feature that got my attention the most is it doesn’t use mySQL to store information, or any sort of database at all. It does it through the magical wonderment of XML.
We don’t use mySQL to store our information, but instead depend on the speed and accuracy of XML. By utilizing XML, we are able stay away from introducing an extra layer of slowness and complexity associated with connecting to a mySQL database. Because GetSimple was built specifically for the small-site market, we feel this is the absolutely best option for data storage.
What are the requirements?
- UNIX/Linux host
- PHP 5.1.3+
- Apache
- No MySQL Database
- 6 minutes to spare
Even the documentation is light for it, with only six pages telling you everything you might need to know about how to get running with GetSimple. Filed in as “looks interesting, but really need to play with it” GetSimple looks simple enough to use, and friendly enough for everybody to enjoy.
