In
this study are comparatively presented an info regarding 3 CMS
based on following set criteria: Usability
Cost
Benefits
Stability
Updates
Ease – of – use
Technical Requirements,
User Friendly Characteristics,
Performance,
Certainty,
Built In Application
Support.
In the table above we can be observe that all 3 software
solutions support same values or in other words they are the same
CMS with some improvements. Some of major improvements that have
brought Joomla and Elxis are in the area of safety; performances as
well as a lot of adjustments have been done in the field of search
engines (SEO). Another improvement which Elxis last generation
brought on the market is new license ELP- Elxis Public License,
which impressed CMS supporters, but that doesn't mean that it is
worse solution than Joomla. In the paper follows the test of speed
and load which are more valid to view the performances of the two
systems than it could be observed visually.
The benchmark results of the comparing test between Joomla 2.5.4
Emper (stable) and Elxis 4.0 Nautilus (prealpha). The test was
implemented with Apache's ab tool, on computer which was used for
local development based on MS Windows operative system. Both CMS
have had same basic (default) settings, but Elxis has had 2900
published articles more than Joomla. Various caching options were
tested and result shows that Elxis least four time is faster than
his competitor Joomla.
In the presented texts it could be observed that Elxis is faster
than Joomla. Tests were conducted in the same enviroment with sole
excpetion that Joomla was in the final version, against Elxis in
test version, which provides more space for Elxis further
improvements regarding the speed and other issues. The main reason
behind why is Elxis is faster is laying in good optimisation and
organisation. When the APC is turned on , Elxis reduces the number
of requests sent to database located at Fronpage. In same time
Elxis has the same princip of operation with contents and modules
which are loaded only when they are needed . Furthermore Joomla
caches all modules regardless wherthere they are published or not.
One of reason why , Elxis has only two types of global extensions
(components and modules) against Joomla who has 11 diferent types
of extensions.
