Stop me if you have heard queries like these before: Why am I using {Product X} to build a {Task Y} website? Why am I rebuilding {Product X} to act like {Product Y}? Why can’t this {organizational asset} be flexible for {Product Y} instead of just {Product X}? Questions like these highlight an issue we face more in our day-to-day work in the ever-evolving web: content management system tunnel vision. Sometimes, our organization gets fixated on a particular platform or content management system, even when alternatives and successors exist. And over time, this stagnation hinders growth, expansion, trends, technologies, and eventually even adoption. In this presentation, I will cover the value of creating a web system ecosystem in your institution, department, unit, or organization. I'll cover: On-Campus CMS Usage Today - Discussion on scenarios where a CMS is being reconfigured to meet a demand it wasn’t meant to do, and the fallout from said reconfiguration. Why this approach is expensive in the long haul. What is a Web CMS Ecosytem? - Discussion on a different look at a system, where CMSs are provisioned and recommended for uses and have affordances and tradeoffs. Change the Community Mindset - Let’s consider the growth, explosion, and fall of CMS systems and stay on top of trends, platforms, and best-practices. Exploring Ecosystem Adoption- Discussion on changing mindsets, running pilot studies, experimentation, exploration, and research to determine organizational web makeup, goals, needs, and expectations. Angle Your Institutional Assets - Discussion on side-effects of this move, which may include CMS-agnostic branding and style guides, flexible and scalable plugins and campus application integrations for each system, and pain-minimized migration paths between services and applications.
