Heretto Publishing Overview

Heretto CCMS offers several publishing options that enable you to transform content to various formats and deliver it to different endpoints. Some of them, like Heretto PDF Generator or the DITA-OT Cloud integration, are an integral part of the CCMS. Others, like Heretto Portal and Heretto Deploy API, are separate products.

Most of the publishing options that are an integral part of the CCMS are cloud publishing engines. Cloud publishing engines use cloud computing to publish content in a secure, temporary cloud container. As a result, publishing operations do not affect the performance of the CCMS.

The cloud publishing infrastructure is separate from the CCMS infrastructure. New versions of cloud publishing engines are released separately from CCMS versions and are deployed to customers immediately after they are released.

Heretto Portal and Heretto Deploy API are separate products and are not part of cloud publishing.
