Greetings, I'm looking to build a portal Jetspeed, and of course ran into Turbine as I started getting my head around the pieces parts. Wow, yummy! Nice work!
Can I ask some questions of the experts that are on this list? If any of these are covered elsewhere, a simple "RTFM" as a response would be very helpful so I know to do more digging. But I think I am at a place where things mostly fit and I want to get experiences from those that have done this or something similar before. For the purposes here, please forget that I want to use Jetspeed, at this point I'm simply evaluating Turbine on JBoss 3.0. 1) Most of my application model is going to be implemented as EJBs under JBoss 3.0. Once I have the stub for the EJB, I should be able to just plug this in as my bean to Velocity, right? 2) I haven't had a chance yet to closely examine the installation docs, but have looked a bit at the JavaDocs for SecurityService. If I understand this correctly, it's possible to deploy Turbine using the LDAPSecurityService and have a system that reads/writes changes to something like OpenLDAP. If that is true, I will use the LDAP analog in JBoss for my EJB security, thereby normalizing the security storage, even at some possible expenditure to normalize the schemas between the code bases. Sound reasonable? 3) With my model completely implemented as EJB (and using XDoclet generated CMP), my model should be completely detached from any dependency on JDBC -- all database access will be through the EJB container. The SecurityService will be through LDAP. Are there other significant dependencies on the database that I need to be aware of? I've looked through all the other service descriptions on the 2.x docs and couldn't find anything. 4) Am I significantly missing the boat on anything? Thanks a bunch for any input!!!
