Hi Nitty,

I am a seasoned enterprise java programmer working for financial firm and
newbie to the world of content management.
We have a project that requires documents CRUD along with versioning, it is
a J2EE web-based application and will be used by people both inside and
outside the firm for publishing documents.
Lenya shines when it comes to web content management, structured XML
content, and complex XML processing in the presentation layer. So if you
want to build a complex content-oriented web application with custom
document types and server-side processing, Lenya is a very good option.
It simplifies typical web content issues a lot – link management,
publishing workflows, rendering in different output formats etc.
If you are looking for a repository which treats documents as black
boxes and allows CRUD via a Java API or REST, there might be better
solutions (Apache Jackrabbit if you use Java, Apache Sling if you use
REST and need a web GUI).
Another question is the amount of documents you want to manage. Lenya is
targeted for websites, so typical installations contain a couple of
thousand documents. If you need to store hundreds of thousands or even
millions of documents, you'd have to use a custom repository with Lenya
(e.g., a JCR-based one), which will require quite a lot of customization
work.
Instead of developing a home grown solution I was looking to open source
(**non too invasive) solution and found that there are several out there.
I was wondering if I could use Lenya for my requirement, if yes - where I
can find more info like tutorials, knowledge base forums etc.
Our forum is basically the mailing list archive:
http://lenya.apache.org/community/ml.html#N10095
You'll find some tutorials on the website and some more info on the Wiki
(wiki.apache.org/lenya).
