CubicWeb is an entities / relations based knowledge management system.
CubicWeb includes a data server and a web engine. It promotes reusability through the usage of components (called cubes).
Its data server publishes data federated from different sources like SQL databases, LDAP directories, VCS repositories or even from other CubicWeb data servers.
Its web engine was designed to let the final user control what content to select and how to display it. It allows one to browse the federated data sources and display the results with the rendering that best fits the context. This flexibility of the user interface gives back to the user some capabilities usually only accessible to application developers.
Key Features
- RQL, an intuitive query language close to business vocabulary.
- Architecture that natively separates selection and visualisation.
- Data security by design.
- Relies on a standard SQL database for storing and managing data. PostgreSQL is the preferred database of CubicWeb.
