About Orchard Core
Orchard Core is a high-performance, open-source application framework and Content Management System (CMS) built on ASP.NET Core. By 2026, it has solidified its position as the premier choice for .NET architects seeking a modular, multi-tenant architecture that supports both traditional and headless content delivery. The system is split into two distinct parts: Orchard Core Framework, which provides the underlying plumbing for modular multi-tenant applications, and Orchard Core CMS, a feature-rich CMS built on top of that framework. Its 2026 market position is defined by its deep integration with .NET 10/11, offering unparalleled execution speeds and a flexible 'Recipes' system for automated site deployment. The platform's ability to host thousands of isolated sites on a single server instance makes it a favorite for SaaS providers and enterprise-level conglomerates. With native GraphQL support and a robust OpenID Connect implementation, it serves as a secure, scalable backbone for modern decoupled web architectures and mobile application backends.
