Originally launched in 1999, eZ is a robust enterprise CMS with a flexible suite of tools for businesses with publishing as a key activity. Its users include traditional publishers like the Financial Times, The Economist, and The Christian Science Monitor; large public organizations like Harvard University and the American Museum of Natural History; and big brands like Kitchen Aid and John Deere.

We at Contextual Code played with it  a bit and it is very easy to install an eZ Platform site, but things are a little different for eZ Publish Legacy. This blog post will show some of the most important steps in running a eZ Publish Legacy installation on eZ Platform Cloud.
