Speaking as a Jackrabbit (Oak) user, we do have mechanisms to externalise the definition of the JCR repository to connect to, it just happens that we don't use JNDI. We're using a web framework called Apache Sling [1] and that framework uses the Feature Model [2] to configure applications. I don't have extensive experience with running Jackrabbit outside of Sling, but I always see Oak embedded with the application, whether the persistence is tied to the individual instance, using the SegmentNodeStore, or clusterable, using the DocumentNodeStore [4]. Hope this helps, Robert [1]: https://sling.apache.org/ [2]: https://sling.apache.org/documentation/feature-model/feature-model-howto.html [3]: https://jackrabbit.apache.org/oak/docs/nodestore/segment/overview.html [4]: https://jackrabbit.apache.org/oak/docs/nodestore/documentmk.html
