Thanks Roy, yes that's the other suggestion Adobe had identified and we're looking at it as well. In your opinion is integration of DAM Assets at the JCR level with Oak just a bad idea even if it is possible?

Hey David, Seeing as you are using AEM, thus Sling, have you looked at the ResourceProvider interface? With this you can bind resources coming from another place than the JCR repo to the content tree. You can look at these examples, the first one fetches content from a couchbase, the second one from a mongodb: - https://github.com/apache/sling/tree/trunk/contrib/nosql/couchbase-resourceprovider - https://github.com/apache/sling/tree/trunk/contrib/nosql/mongodb-resourceprovider - https://github.com/Adobe-Consulting-Services/acs-aem-samples/blob/master/bundle/src/main/java/com/adobe/acs/samples/resourceproviders/impl/SampleResourceProvider.java Greets, Roy On 12 Apr 2017, at 16:34, Beaudet, David <d-beau...@nga.gov<mailto:d-beau...@nga.gov>> wrote: Greetings, We are researching the best way to expose digital assets that are managed in a non-JCR based enterprise DAM system via Adobe's native DAM UI and are wondering if it's possible to, for example, bind a path like /content/dam/edam/... to a remote data source. Adobe had released an alpha or beta version of a package for JackRabbit that enabled a remote RDBMS source dataset to be grafted into the JCR tree at a configured path. Content was mapped from the database and exposed via the JCR APIs. Is it still possible to implement such a feature with Oak and if so, can someone point me to the interfaces that would have to be implemented or a how-to guide if one exists?
