Magnolia Powers Top-Ten News Channel France24.com

Magnolia -- simple enterprise content management -- proves with top-ten global news website France24.com that it can power the most demanding web sites on the planet.

Basel, Switzerland (PRWEB) February 21, 2007 -- France24, France's voice on current affairs, provides a different perspective from BBC news, CNN or Al Jazeera. Within three weeks this perspective has attracted more than 1.2 million unique visitors requesting 15 million pages of content from France24.com, its Magnolia-powered web-channel.

This makes France24.com the new flagship reference site for Magnolia, the commercial Open-Source Enterprise Content Management (ECM) that powers it.

France24.com is a prime example of why Magnolia's unique combination of enterprise scalability and user-friendliness is ever more important in today's Web 2.0 world.

For France24, 170 journalists gather rich media content that is published in French, English and Arabic, on the web and on TV. Magnolia's easy-to-understand, distraction-free user interface is available in 15 languages and lets its authors focus on the task at hand: providing quality content in a timely fashion to a global audience.

Worldwide, france24.com is ranked 8th position in the category "Current Events and Global News websites" (source: Nielsen//NetRatings, December 2006).

This position is a direct result of the quality of content and the availability to deliver it. At the time of its launching, france24.com recorded a peak of 50.000 simultaneous connections using 10 Gbit/s of band-width.

"To be able to go live with France24 within 8 months, have 170 journalists provide news with worldwide impact and deliver it to a global audience requires a level of functionality, scalability, extensibility and ease-of-use that only Magnolia offers today. France24.com is an excellent example why Magnolia's unique focus on ease-of-use and enterprise qualities provide outstanding business value," says Pascal Mangold, CEO, Magnolia International Ltd.

With France24, Magnolia has shown that it has outgrown its competition and is capable to match today's highest demands regarding delivery and management of high-quality multimedia content on the web. Now that is giving Magnolia a different perspective, isn't it?
