MODX Revolution Vs. MODX Evolution

MODX Evolution empowers software developers and enthusiasts to build websites exactly how they want since many years. Let us see some differences between MODX Revolution and MODX Evolution.
         MODX Evolution is classic code base that entered stable production release in 2005. It has a larger number of Add-ons which offers pre-built functionality and is highly optimized to execute well for many types of websites.
MODX Revolution was created over a three year period and saw its first public release in 2010. It is a totally rewrite to address the requirements of outsized websites, and to offer a more scalable, configurable and feature-rich framework.
     MODX Evolution may be faster for minor web sites, but MODX Revolution can scale to much larger, multi-server environments, including customizable caching, multiple database support like MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server.
     In addition MODX Revolution, natively supports multiple websites, secure configurations with most files stored outside of web root.
While both Evo and Revo support Resources (web pages) and Weblinks (redirecting links to other pages on the internet), MODX Revolution also includes Static Resources, Symlinks (links to other pages that can maintain their position in dynamic menus), the ability to generate custom resources and Media Sources which can store files literally anywhere.
