SINGAPORE, October 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --
CoreMedia, a leading Web content management (WCM) company, today announced the successful deployment on 13 July of a major strategic WCM project for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation's News Online website.
ABC News Online - with an average of 8.3 million visitors each month - is a key element of ABC Online, which averages around 36 million visits per month.

Project Details:
- CoreMedia CMS better enables the provision of the ABC's online news
- CoreMedia solution helps maximize the value of ABC Online News' content assets - wherever they reside - by optimizing the creation and delivery of content for the ABC's online channels
- Powerful Web Content Management solution supports broader delivery of news content to websites, social media networks and mobile devices
- CoreMedia's enterprise capabilities ideally matched to scale and complexity of the ABC's major content management project
- Supports implementation of a more streamlined editorial workflow within ABC News Online
