For most enterprise teams, managing, hosting, and delivering content globally has often meant choosing between two less-than-ideal paths. Either rigid monolithic CMS (opens in a new window) platforms with an existing hosting solution that are difficult to adapt and slow to work with, or fragmented stacks stitched together with multiple vendors and integrations. 

Even digital experience platforms that positioned themselves as an “all-in-one” solution and seemed like a single answer to most of our problems introduced new challenges, including vendor lock-in, complex workflows, and rising costs. This limits their long-term value and usability, especially when we pay for tools and features we don’t even use. 

It often felt less like “this is just what we need” and more like a “this will do” approach, as even with all the necessary parts technically in place, these solutions rarely work together as smoothly as they should. The results are a slower time to market, mounting costs, and increased demand on developers and marketing teams to work out these complex and faulty systems. 

The question is: Is “all-in-one” content management, hosting, and delivery even possible at an enterprise level without the DXP drawbacks? In short, it is now. 

The answer: a complete content delivery suite

Storyblok and Netlify (opens in a new window) together have created a direct path from content creation to enterprise-ready hosting to best-in-class global delivery. With integrated hosting and delivery, content can flow seamlessly from the Storyblok content management system (CMS) into Netlify’s deployment and edge platform. A real all-in-one solution. 

You can now deliver global experiences efficiently without the maintenance and input typically required. There are no complex workflows, scattered contracts, or servers or in-house hosting to manage, minimizing delays and transforming the slow, outdated delivery processes many teams still contend with. 

The solution is simple: content in, global experiences out. Enterprise teams gain the speed, scalability, and control to accelerate time to market and boost productivity — while keeping the flexibility to opt in only if and when they need it. No vendor lock-in or forced add-ons, just simple, all-in-one enterprise-ready content delivery. If you prefer to use Storyblok with your existing hosting solution, that works — and you can always switch to Netlify at any time if you choose.

The architectural advantages of the Storyblok and Netlify bundle

1. Lower overhead: no servers to manage, less IT burden, reduced costs. 
2. Built-in performance: Content Delivery Network (opens in a new window) (CDN) and edge (opens in a new window) delivery ensure global speed and reliability (from a 99.9% uptime guarantee). 
3. Instant elasticity: auto-scaling cloud infrastructure adapts to traffic demand without developer intervention or maintenance. 
4. Granular control: developers still get granular control over the things they want and need in serverless functions, background jobs, and caching rules (while the rest of the infrastructure management is taken care of). 
5. Simplified procurement: one contract, one process, fewer vendors, and faster time-to-value. 
6. Happier developers: instead of teams managing servers, setting up CDNs, and patching infrastructure, Netlify automates it so developers can focus on building, not babysitting.

It’s a solution that covers all ground — from your people to your architecture — and creates a full-circle content delivery machine that streamlines your path from idea to delivery on global experiences that meet today’s market expectations.
