Webhosting
Service description
Not all websites in the university environment can be operated in the standard content management system TYPO3 in the official corporate design of HHU. Examples of this include web presences of overlapping cooperations as well as websites with special functionalities that cannot be provided by the central TYPO3. The ZIM offers a web hosting server for websites of this kind.
