Hello Ard,

First of all thanks a lot for clarifying my queries.
To be Frank , since there are so many open source in the market,so it becomes 
difficult to evaluate.So depending on our project requirement I came up with 
these questions, which you have undoubtedly clarified mine queries already 
listed.



Now my biggest concern is Jackrabbit. Which version of Jackrabbit is being used?


According to one of the site ,in Jackrabbit there are issues with remote 
access, large batch operations and heavy concurrent write access. The details 
is available in following link: 
http://www.theserverside.com/news/thread.tss?thread_id=48137

Details from the above site are pasted below


Remaining issues:

* We haven't done a thorough review of internal locking to proactively prevent 
potential unknown deadlock issues
* After the ISM locking improvement we still face a problem with many of the 
database persistence operations being synchronized and need to switch to 
connection pooling (see my previous comment) to reach full concurrency
* Remote access is still relatively slow

To summarize, we feel that Jackrabbit is already quite ready for most typical 
web and other applications with relatively fine grained and mostly read access 
patterns. There are issues with remote access, large batch operations and heavy 
concurrent write access, so you may want to wait at least for Jackrabbit 1.5 
before considering Jackrabbit for production use.

In our case minimum concurrent users will be 100.So there is a chance of 
concurrent write access(As mentioned in the site.)How do we achieve it?Is it 
the situation you were talking about data structure(The way we store data)?

Your reply to it is most awaited.


Thanks & Regards,
Dhiren Chandra Sharma

Subject: RE: [HippoCMS-dev] Need some clarification

Hello Dhiren,

To start with, what is your planning regarding this. We have been working for a 
few years with a slide based repository and webdav based connection to it to 
have a cms / dms.

Now, we are finishing our layer on top of Jackrabbit being entirely jsr-170 
compliant, and when jsr-283 is final will become compliant to this one as well. 
So things like versioning you are asking below is supported by default. The 
production release is planned in short notice.
See below for my further comments:

Yes, on top of our repository, we provide a pluggable cms based on apache 
wicket.

Yes, this is default jsr-170 behavior which is supported

Any binary can be stored. Also searching for *.doc, *.pdf , *....is supported 
because text is extracted and indexed and searched using Apache Lucene. Meta 
data of documents and binaries like gif and jpeg are extracted as well, indexed 
and searchable (extracting done with Tika and Sanselan, both Apache incubators)

We do not yet have these. Jackrabbit users are storing these kind of numbers in 
the repository, but you need to think about how to model your data. Jackrabbit 
is a hierarchical store of content, where obviously, you should for example not 
store one million nodes direct below a single node, but create some structure.

> 4.What is the maximum size(in MB) of the documents that can be

I am not sure if there actually is a limit. Obviously, if it is some binary 
file, it is probably the limit set by the container as maximum upload size, but 
for just text...i do not think there are really constraints here.

> 5.Do you have some functionality for Repository Backup or
> Restore(Import and Export)?

There is support for export / import through xml (also partial tree parts). 
Furthermore, the backing storage is done in some (oracle, derby, mysql, 
microsoft sql, postgresql, .... ) database or filesystem, so backup is also 
possible through backup of the database

> 6.Does it supports clustering?

Yes

> 7.Does it support Bulk Upload of files(Documents)?

The cms interface has some plugins for for example uploading documents.
But furthermore, you can upload a bulk of documents by just importing some xml 
representing documents, or, just write ten lines of code iterating over some 
folder structure, and save them with simple jcr
(jsr-170) calls. We have some examples of importing your filesystem in the 
repository, and exposing it through faceted navigation (which you get 
out-of-the-box as well, all exposed through jsr-170 compatible
calls)

Hope this answers your questions, and don't hesitate if you have more questions,

-Ard
