Hi,
I kind of know from the README that OAK is going to be made for webapps.
However I am not sure what would be the primary difference between OAK and
JackRabbit? Seems like some code is being ported from JackRabbit into OAK
itself. The reason I ask is because I have a webapp(at work) which uses
JackRabbit heavily and was wondering if it would make sense to think about
replacing JackRabbit with OAK in the future. Is there a place where I could
see a roadmap for OAK.
Hi,
Oak currently is at a very early state of development. The main goal of
the project is to develop a JCR compliant repository which is ready for
current and future requirements. In contrast to Jackrabbit 2 Oak does
not aim to implement every optional feature of JSR-283/JSR-170 but
rather trade some of these for better performance and scalability. For
more details see the strategic plan [1] on the Jackrabbit Wiki.
For an initial release road map see [2]. Release 0.2 is just around the
corner.
