Key developer joins Magnolia to take Spring integration to whole new level
NEW YORK, NY — August 2010 — Magnolia, the open source content management vendor that delivers simplicity on an enterprise scale, today announced the release of Magnolia Blossom, a module for Magnolia that integrates Magnolia with the Spring Framework. Tobias Mattsson, the seasoned Spring developer who created Blossom, has joined Magnolia to support Blossom users and bring the integration of the Spring application platform to a whole new level.
“Spring is the world's most popular Java Development Framework and nearly half of the Global 2000 are SpringSource customers," said Boris Kraft, Magnolia CTO. "Magnolia Blossom is a best of both worlds scenario where the greatest CMS meets that leading enterprise application stack, to manage content in addition to developing applications. With Tobias Mattsson on board, Magnolia will become the CMS of choice for Spring users.”
“Integrating websites with applications is a key business case on the web today,” added Tobias Mattsson. “With Magnolia’s new Blossom module, Spring developers are finally able to bring custom back-end business logic to your web site without additional integration effort. Blossom is a unique Spring-CMS integration that lets developers easily define custom Magnolia elements – like dialogs, page templates, and content objects – right within their custom business logic. Magnolia Blossom brings all of Spring’s flexibility and integration to the rich publishing environment that Magnolia CMS provides."
Spring helps developers write high quality applications faster, and delivers key Java concepts with a comprehensive set of frameworks. For more information on Magnolia Blossom, please visit www.magnolia-cms.com.
