To then downvote, that's just sad.
Where the video says "The Django CMS interface", the interface is clearly page-centric, not structured content-centric. It has building blocks like "feature-visual", "bg-home.jpg", "feature-content", "container", "row", "column col-md-24" etc.
How is that structured content?
Perhaps it can do structured content, but then why doesn't the video put that front and center? Is this perhaps an "also" feature, for building landing pages? Then why does the marketing talk about "content editors"?
So perhaps it's just the marketing that oversimplifies things? :)
Awful authoring experience for non-technical users. Which doesn't mean it's not excellent for certain use cases :)
It allows you to reuse that structured content in many ways, everywhere.
(Django CMS as demonstrated in the video is purely about building pages, which makes it — if I'm being a bit harsh — just a glorified MS FrontPage.)
Massive modernization. Most high-level concepts remain the same. The implementation became much better. And it's a joy instead of a pain to extend/customize.
I recommend you to take a look :) See https://www.drupal.org/drupal-8.0 — RC1 was tagged _yesterday_.
It sounds like you will particularly like the Configuration System. See https://www.chapterthree.com/blog/principles-configuration-m...
I'd think something along the lines of Surrogate Keys/Cache Tags would make sense:
