LONDON – Liferay, a leading provider of Digital Experience Platforms (DXPs), today announced the general availability of Liferay CMS, a fully headless content management system (CMS) designed to help marketing, development, and IT teams create, manage, and deliver digital content across multiple channels from a centralised repository.

Built on the core architecture of Liferay DXP, Liferay CMS combines the agility of a decoupled system with the stability and governance required by enterprise organisations. Whether powering a native mobile app, a customer portal, or a complex web ecosystem, Liferay CMS ensures content remains consistent, reusable, and easily distributable.

“Today’s organisations need agility without losing control of their content operations,” said Julia Molano, Director of Product Management at Liferay. “Liferay CMS builds on Liferay’s decades of DXP leadership to deliver a fully headless offering. It allows developers to work with stable, well-documented APIs while empowering marketers and content creators to manage global content without heavy reliance on IT.”

Liferay CMS introduces Spaces, the platform’s primary organisational units for headless content management, enabling teams to structure asset repositories, manage access, and collaborate more efficiently across departments or projects. Each Space provides a dedicated environment for content creation and management, including support for advanced localisation with AI-powered translation tools, making it easier for global organisations to manage multi-language content.

Key features of Liferay CMS include:

  • Global Content Visibility: A single view to search, review, and reuse content across regions and brands, eliminating disconnected repositories.
  • Headless Architecture: Combines the flexibility of headless deployments with the governance and control of a centralised system.
  • Embedded Analytics: Performance metrics like views and downloads are displayed directly within Liferay CMS, allowing teams to validate asset performance at the point of work.
  • AI-Assisted Workflows: Accelerates translation, localisation and content review.
  • Multi-Site Management: Ideal for franchises or organisations with multiple digital properties, allowing for centralised control while granting team-specific access.
  • Unified Collaboration: Dedicated ‘Shared with Me’ areas and advanced access controls ensure all stakeholders work from a single source of truth.

The launch of Liferay CMS reflects a modular platform approach designed for organisations that prioritise an API-first strategy. Because it is built on the same core architecture as Liferay DXP, organisations can start with a streamlined headless CMS today and seamlessly activate integrated capabilities like advanced commerce, page building, or AI-driven personalisation as their digital requirements expand.
