Drupal is an open-source content-management framework written in PHP used as a back-end framework for websites and is also used for knowledge management and business collaboration. The standard release of Drupal contains basic features common to content management systems, including user account registration and maintenance, menu management, RSS feeds, taxonomy, page layout customization, and system administration. Drupal runs on any computing platform that supports both a Web server capable of running PHP and a database to store content and configuration.

Content management (CM) is a set of processes and technologies that supports the collection, managing, and publishing of information in any form or medium. When stored and accessed via computers, this information may be more specifically referred to as digital content, or simply as content. Digital content may take the form of text (such as electronic documents), multimedia files (such as audio or video files), or any other file type that follows a content lifecycle requiring management.
