Content repositories allow you to store simple files, documents with metadata, or even complex documents with structured metadata, and to work with them in various ways. This talk will describe the Nuxeo Core content management engine, and how it builds on standards like JCR 2 and CMIS to provide high-level features to end-users.
The talk will start with a presentation of the standards in the area, JCR and its successor JCR 2 (JSR-170 & JSR-283), as well as the emerging CMIS (Content Management Interoperability Services). These document-specific APIs will be contrasted with simpler storage solutions based on JDBC or JPA.
Nuxeo Core will then be presented, and we will show how it uses the above standards to provide efficient storage of high volumes of structured or unstructured documents in a flexible manner, using either a JCR or a transparent SQL backend.
