Thanks for mentioning OpenEdit! We have enterprise clients using OpenEdit’s content management and digital asset management with no database successfully.

That said, we do have clients who for one reason or another require a database, so we do have a module that allows you to use OpenEdit, XML or any other database as your backend.

Thank’s for the hints Cms-db ist called “cms -db” and doesn’t require javascript. Safe_mode=off is also not really necessary. With a disabled javaScript, an alternative version wil be used. Sorry for that, I’ve corrected this above.

Cms without db are better because, they
- can easily be moved around,
- easy to take backup
- easy to make multiple installations
- are usually small and simple
- and some dont even need any kind of installation procedure, like nanocms…
the list can go on …
