Stateless content management system

A content management system comprising:

• a processor;
• a plurality of stateless containers of binaries, each of the stateless containers of binaries comprising a code memory having stored thereon processor-executable instructions configured to provide a different version of a first functional component of the content management system;
• a configuration container comprising a configuration memory having stored thereon configuration data for the plurality of stateless containers of binaries;
• and
• a data container comprising a data memory storing input data or output data for the plurality of stateless containers of binaries, wherein each of the stateless containers of binaries is linked to the configuration container and each of the stateless containers of binaries is configured to execute the respective processor-executable instructions to provide the respective different version of the first functional component and use the configuration data in common and the data memory in common with the others of the plurality of stateless containers of binaries;
• and
• a computer-readable medium storing instructions executable to provide a broker configured to:
• receive a request for a service of the content management system from a client application, the request associated with a user of the content management system;
• determine a plurality of versions of the service that are determined as accessible with regard to the user;
• provide, to the client application, a list of the plurality of the versions of the service;
• and
• provide, to the client application, a list of servers hosting the plurality of versions of the service, each server in the list of servers hosting at least one version of the service, the list including an IP address and a port number associated with each of the servers from the list of servers, wherein each of the versions of the service is provided by a respective one of the plurality of stateless containers of binaries.
