It’s a new week so you know what that means a new acquisition. Last week Salesforce acquired Contentful. This week they acquired m3ter. Most of the industry is still talking about it buying a CMS, because it was big news. I think we’re all looking at the wrong acquisition. Or perhaps more accurately, they’re looking…
When Sitecore announced the acquisition of Scrunch this week, most commentary focused on AI search visibility. I think that’s missing the bigger story. Sitecore didn’t buy an SEO platform. They bought a way to help brands understand how AI systems see, interpret, and represent their content. For over twenty years, digital strategy followed a simple…
Disclaimer: I’m watching the Star Wars films with the kids and thought the theme was fun The composable revolution was supposed to be permanent. Best-of-breed vendors. Open APIs. No more monolithic empires telling you which tools to use. The Rebel Alliance was winning. Then Salesforce bought Contentful. The Empire struck back. And it brought a…
In the previous post, delivery was moved closer to customers. EU CD serving EU users. US CD serving US users. Publishing keeping both regions aligned.Autoscale and health checks protecting each footprint independently. Structurally, that’s a big improvement. But the moment you introduce multiple regions, something else happens. The platform becomes harder to manage and operate.…
My first blog made the case for block-level content governance as the infrastructure underneath Scott Liewehr’s argument about AI and authenticity. If you haven’t read it, start there. This post is about governance specifically – what it means for AI-generated content, why it’s no longer optional, and what it could look like inside Sitecore Content…
Scott Liewehr, Global VP of Market Strategy and Growth at Sitecore, wrote a piece for CMSWire in April that’s really worth reading. His argument is solid: AI doesn’t kill brand authenticity – lazy use of AI does. Brand voice was already broken before AI arrived. He’s right. A properly governed AI is a consistency engine,…
Sitecore has two products that come up in almost every enterprise conversation right now. SitecoreAI and Content Hub. Both are impressive. Both are growing. And without a clear mental model for how they relate, it’s easy to think you are buying the wrong one or underestimate what the right combination could do. This is my…
It’s a question that comes up more than you’d think. An organisation evaluates Content Hub for its DAM or CMP capability. Someone in the room asks whether it could also replace their Product Information Management tool. The honest answer is it depends on what you actually need from a PIM. Most organisations haven’t thought that…
In 1957, the Soviet Union launched Sputnik and the space race began. Two superpowers. One goal. Get there first. But the moment Neil Armstrong stepped onto the moon in 1969, something interesting happened. The finish line disappeared. The race didn’t end – it just became a different race. Bigger. Less defined. Harder to win. The…
Digital Asset Management has been around long enough that most people think they know what it is. A repository. A place to store approved assets. A way to stop the marketing team emailing each other JPEGs. That definition is out of date. And Sitecore Content Hub is a good example of why. Where Sitecore sits…
When Gartner published its Magic Quadrant for Content Marketing Platforms in March 2022, Sitecore sat in the Visionaries quadrant. Strong on vision, still building execution credibility. A platform with clear potential but not yet the full package. By April 2024, that had changed. Sitecore was in the Leaders quadrant. I remember Roger Connolly telling me…
There’s a lot of conversation in the Sitecore ecosystem right now about composable, SaaS, and what comes next. But there’s a quieter conversation that needs to happen too. What do you do if you’re running Sitecore Experience Commerce and the platform you’re on has been officially left behind? The situation is clear Sitecore confirmed a…
For global XP deployment, regional CD is key to balancing content consistency and proximity, optimizing performance and user experience.
Sitecore XP is a backbone for global content delivery, powering marketing estates, content-heavy experiences, and more. While the future of composable architecture and AI-driven content operations is exciting, many organizations are still optimizing their current setups.
The integration between Sitecore Content Hub and Contentful enables seamless asset management and content delivery, enhancing operational efficiency and governance without compromise.
The blog details steps for installing the DAM module within Sitecore XP, addressing potential pitfalls, providing links for necessary resources, and outlining crucial backup and configuration processes to ensure successful implementation.
Most organisations still think in the old categories: CMS for content, DAM for assets, DXP for experiences. These tools solved real problems at the time, but the way we work with content has changed completely. Today, teams share content across multiple channels with loads of different formats and timelines. Content that was built for one…
There’s always a bit of relief when the email lands. You are a Sitecore MVP 2026 No fanfare. No build-up. Just a subject line you pause over for a moment longer than you’d like to admit. Even after going through it before, there’s still that flicker of doubt. The bar shifts every year, and you…
Search has traditionally been treated as something that sits on top of content. And hope the search engine can stitch something useful together. It works well enough for customer-facing search, but internally it leaves a huge gap. This all changes the moment the platform sits on a unified backbone. What is a backbone A unified…
I’ll start here with this is entirely my thoughts and I know the power of Content Hubs knowledge graph, this is wishful thinking. However I remember suggesting the Roger Connolly back at Sugcon 2023 in Malaga – imagine if you had Content Hubs as the content store then bolted pages and components on top. Fast…
