Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Content management systems (CMS) are information systems that support the
management and delivery of documents and other expressions of employee knowledge. Typical
users of content management systems are companies that sell complicated products and want to
share their knowledge of those products with employees and customers.
Content management systems face serious challenges. First, most content databases are huge;
some have thousands of individual documents, pages, and graphics. The second challenge is that
CMS content is dynamic. Another complication for content management systems is that
documents do not exist in isolation from each other. Documents refer to one another, and
multiple documents may refer to the same product or procedure. When one of them changes,
others must change as well. To manage these connections, content management systems must
maintain linkages among documents so that content dependencies are known and used to
maintain document consistency. A fourth complication is that document contents are perishable.
Documents become obsolete and need to be altered, removed, or replaced.
