Kentico

The content management platform behind the municipal web estate — the main city site, the preparedness site and a row of independently governed agencies on shared tenancy.

Product lines and other names: Kentico CMS, Kentico Xperience

Shared tenancy is what made this an architecture question rather than a web operations one. The same platform carried the main municipal site, the public emergency preparedness site, the Sheriff’s Office, the Tax Collector, the courts and six others — organizations that do not share a budget or an elected officer, sharing a content platform.

That makes the platform’s continuity tiering the continuity tiering of every service on it. In the enterprise disaster recovery architecture it was named a top-five application for business continuity, which is a judgment about the preparedness site as much as about the content system. Capacity planning and load-balancer sizing were done for the platform rather than per site, and the demilitarized zone switch replacement planning tracked the sites it carried among those at risk.

Where it appears

Declared on each entry rather than listed here, so this page cannot drift from the work it describes. What each entry named is quoted as it stands, with how much of that project rested on it and what stands behind the claim beside it. The first of those drives the height of the surface above.
