Extend the OpenKM features

CMIS

CMIS is a specification for improving interoperability between Enterprise Content Management systems. OASIS approved CMIS as an OASIS Specification on May 1, 2010. It proposes a data model plus a set of generic services and several HTTP-based protocol bindings for these services, including REST/Atom.

OpenKM supports CMIS through the following modules:

  • The Apache Chemistry OpenCMIS library, which is a general-purpose Java library allowing developers to easily write CMIS clients and servers.
  • Specific OpenCMIS connector bundles, allowing OpenKM to be used as a CMIS server.

CMIS is ideally suited to the following use cases

Repository-to-Repository

This is where content repositories talk directly to each other.

  • Managing Records centrally that are stored in other repositories.
  • Publishing content from one repository to another.

Application-to-Repository

This is where an application that uses content is plugged-into a content repository to handle all content services.

  • Enterprise Software Applications. (BPM, CRM, among others ).
  • Collaboration systems.
  • Productivity applications ( like openoffice which directly can be connected to CMIS repository ).

For example, use SharePoint as a front-end and OpenKM repository as the back-end. This would address the existing SharePoint scalability issues without impacting the user experience.

Federated Repositories

This is where an application talks to many different repositories while presenting a singular interface to the user.

  • Federated Search.
  • Federation instead of migration.
