dtSearch Case Study — SITECORE

Sitecore Content Management Solutions Adds dtSearch to Applications' Portfolio

“dtSearch provides developers with tools such as drag and drop search functionality and broken link checking”
Based in Copenhagen, Denmark, Sitecore is Europe's fastest growing content management system, currently serving up over 1 million dynamic web pages. Sitecore is based on an open architecture and standard programming languages as recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). It is also one of the very first CMS systems to fully embrace Microsoft's .NET. At the Independent Software Vendor (ISV) conference in September 2004, Microsoft gave Sitecore its ISV Partner of the Year award.

The Sitecore product line includes three basic sets of architectural components. The first is Sitecore Content Manager, a fully scaleable solution for site maintenance. Sitecore Content Manager includes easy-to-use features such as a WYSIWYG text editor, content marking tools, multi-language support, and custom metadata profiling.


dtSearch also “supports extranet and intranet security models,” supports “META tags to categorize and refine search results,” and includes the dtSearch Spider for “cross site searching.”
The second set of architectural components resides in a product called Sitecore Developer. A complete design-to-launch suite, Sitecore Developer functions as an open-standards tool, allowing development access for publishing websites, extranets, intranets and other browser-based applications. Sitecore Developer supports all standard programming languages recommended by the World Wide Web Consortium.

Like Sitecore Manager, Sitecore Developer is fully scaleable to any size data requirements. Sitecore offers support for all of the features of Content Manager, in a developer format fully compatible with .NET. Other features include: dynamic page assembly; open architecture support for SQL, Oracle, DB2, and all other leading databases; support for transferable XML objects; and caching in memory up to 100 times faster than traditional database systems.

The third set of architectural components is Sitecore's add-on modules. The modules take advantage of Sitecore's XML-based architecture to extend the Sitecore functionality in a variety of ways. One such add-on module is based on dtSearch.

"dtSearch compliments our product," says James Derry, Marketing Director, Sitecore A/S. "dtSearch provides developers with tools such as drag and drop search functionality and broken link checking, while the site users enjoy features that improve their browsing experience." In addition to drag and drop search functionality, according to Sitecore's Web site, Sitecore also relies on the fact that dtSearch "supports extranet and intranet security models," supports "META tags to categorize and refine search results," and includes the dtSearch Spider for "cross site searching."
