What is Sanity?
Sanity is a composable content cloud with real-time collaborative editing, GROQ query language, and Portable Text.
What is WordPress (Headless)?
WordPress powers 43% of all websites. When used headlessly, it serves as a content backend while a modern frontend framework handles rendering. Requires WPGraphQL plugin for GraphQL support.
Key Differences
Architecture
Sanity is built from the ground up as a headless CMS. WordPress was designed as a monolith and retrofitted with REST/GraphQL APIs. This means Sanity is faster and more reliable as a content API.
Performance
Sanity API response: ~50ms. WordPress headless: ~200ms. On content-heavy sites, this difference compounds significantly.
Security
Sanity is a managed API service with no server-side code. WordPress is the #1 target for hackers and requires constant security updates.
Ecosystem
WordPress has 60,000+ plugins. Sanity has a smaller but growing ecosystem. In headless mode, most WordPress frontend plugins are unusable.
Content Editing
Sanity has real-time collaboration and Portable Text. WordPress has Gutenberg (block editor) but no real-time multi-user editing.
Performance Comparison
| Metric | Sanity | WordPress (Headless) |
|---|---|---|
| Uptime SLA | 99.9% | Host-dependent |

Frequently Asked Questions
Sanity和WordPress有什麼區別？
Sanity是一個專門構建的無頭CMS，具有即時協作和GROQ查詢功能。WordPress是傳統CMS，可以通過REST API或WPGraphQL插件用作無頭架構。Sanity現代且API優先；WordPress擁有最大的生態系統。
我應該使用WordPress無頭還是切換到Sanity？
如果您已有WordPress網站且有大量內容和插件，無頭WordPress可以工作。如果從零開始或對WordPress效能/安全感到沮喪，Sanity是更好的選擇，具有更好的開發者體驗。
Sanity比WordPress更快嗎？
是的。Sanity API回應時間約50毫秒，有100多個CDN邊緣位置。WordPress無頭API約200毫秒，因託管品質而異。Sanity在內容交付方面明顯更快。
我可以從WordPress遷移到Sanity嗎？
是的。我們專門從事WordPress到無頭CMS的遷移。我們處理內容導出、模型轉換、媒體遷移和前端重建，同時保持SEO。
哪個有更多插件？
WordPress有60,000多個插件。Sanity有不斷增長但較小的生態系統。然而，無頭WordPress無法使用大多數前端插件，縮小了實際差距。
哪個更安全？
Sanity作為受管理的API服務，沒有伺服器端代碼執行，本質上更安全。WordPress需要持續的安全維護，是全球最受攻擊的CMS。
