The rising creation of digital content is expected to drive the expansion of the content management market in the coming period. Digital content creation refers to the process of developing and publishing text, images, videos, audio, or interactive media in digital formats for online platforms to inform, engage, or entertain audiences. The growing availability of cost-effective and easy-to-use creation tools is boosting digital content creation by reducing technical barriers and enabling a wider range of individuals to produce high-quality content. Content management improves digital content creation by enabling version control, workflow automation, and centralized access to assets, thereby increasing productivity and ensuring accuracy and consistency of content. For instance, in November 2024, according to a report published by the Office of Communications (Ofcom), a UK-based government office, UK adults spent an average of 4 hours and 20 minutes online per day in May 2024. A July survey showed that 57% of individuals aged 16-24 sent disappearing snaps on Snapchat. WhatsApp remained the most widely used messaging application, reaching 87% of online adults, with 64% using it daily, up from 58% in 2023. Therefore, the increasing creation of digital content is driving the growth of the content management market.

For instance, in April 2026, Liferay Inc., a US-based software company, launched a fully headless content management system (CMS), built on the Liferay digital experience platform (DXP) architecture, to streamline enterprise content management across digital channels. It emphasizes application programming interface (API)-first delivery for flexible content distribution to apps, portals, and websites while providing centralized governance. It includes global content visibility for searching and reusing assets across regions, embedded analytics for tracking views and downloads, and AI-assisted workflows for translation and review.
