KonaKart and dotCMS to Release an Integrated Toolset

KonaKart (e-commerce) and dotCMS (web content management) have announced plans to release  java based CMS-driven e-commerce plug-ins and tool sets they have co-developed. Both organizations worked closely together to design and implement the architecture and develop an integrated toolset, with workflows and templates, that could provide a presentation layer across an e-commerce platform. By developing an open architecture (standard plugins) between KonaKart and dotCMS, the framework and integration patterns should allow for marketing and social components to be distributed throughout the e-commerce experience. This architecture introduces system segmentation from core infrastructures, with the goal of stability and security for the e-commerce inner-workings. KonaKart and dotCMS plan to release these plugins and tool-sets in both their open source offerings by the 2nd Quarter of 2010, after which future offerings and support packages may follow. http://www.dotcms.org/ http://www.konakart.com/
