Adding dynamic Component Presentations to a Web page
If a Content Manager Explorer user adds a Component and dynamic Component Template to a Page, the two are combined into a Component Presentation and published and stored separately from the Web page. The published Web page contains code to retrieve the Component Presentation at request time. This approach speeds up publishing; makes dynamic link resolving possible; eliminates the risk of stale content or an inconsistent Web site; and uses less disk space; but at the same time, it requires a faster Web server and/or faster access to the published Component Presentations.
