    shortDescription: Modular open-source headless CMS for public-sector websites
    longDescription: >
      elasticMS is a modular open-source headless CMS designed to manage,
      publish, and distribute structured content for public-sector digital
      services.


      The solution is composed of three applications:


      - **elasticMS Admin**, a back-office application and API used to model,
      manage, and validate content;

      - **elasticMS Web**, a web frontend framework used to deliver content to
      end users and integrate it into public websites and applications;

      - **elasticMS CLI**, a command-line tool that supports automation tasks
      such as deployment, configuration, data synchronization, and maintenance.


      elasticMS Admin allows content managers to create and manage generic,
      reusable content models. Content can be handled through a web-based user
      interface or via APIs, and is published to one or more Elasticsearch
      indexes for consumption by downstream applications.


      elasticMS Web consumes these indexes to render accessible, performant, and
      scalable public-facing websites, while elasticMS CLI enables technical
      teams to automate operational workflows and integrate elasticMS into CI/CD
      pipelines.


      ## Advanced customization


      elasticMS is highly configurable and extensible. Its modular architecture
      allows public administrations to adapt the solution to advanced use cases
      and specific organisational needs without vendor lock-in.


      ## Accessibility and data protection


      elasticMS is designed with accessibility and data protection in mind. It
      supports the implementation of WCAG-compliant user interfaces and follows
      GDPR principles regarding the handling and protection of personal data.


      ## Scalable and evolving platform


      elasticMS is a scalable platform that continuously evolves through
      technical improvements driven by real public-sector needs, with a focus on
      long-term maintainability and interoperability.


      ## Secure by design


      The authoritative source of content is stored in a traditional relational
      database (such as PostgreSQL or MariaDB). Public applications and websites
      access content exclusively through Elasticsearch indexes, ensuring a clear
      separation between content management and content delivery layers, and
      reducing the exposure of authoritative data sources.
