29. Content processing is more
and more specialized
• More electronic document management practices in
business processes --> need of specialized vendors
that produces CEVA.
• Must the specialized vendor tie its dev. to one ECM
platform ?
• limited market size from vendor perspective
• limited product choice from customer side.

Open Source ECM
31. Webdav, ODMA
• File management oriented : metadata, fiel locking
• But: no type management, no query language, ...
• Many implementations, more or less close to the
standard (webfolders, ...)
• No more evolution
7
Open Source ECM
32. JCR (Java Content
Repository)
• Fully featured standard : files, versions, locking, query
langague baseline, ...
• Mature : second version of the specs (JCR 2)
• But :
• Java world
• Functionally too ambitious to gather all vendors as they should tear
their existing products too much to fit into the standard.

Open Source ECM
33. CMIS : complete and
interoperable
• CMIS = Content Management Interoperability Standard
• One standardized API, usable by any application
• a «Babel tower» of content management, with a language
agnostic protocole : AtomPub or SOAP, can make dialoging
Java, .NET, Python or PHP apps, even old and strange legacy
languages or framework.
• Fast adoption in the ECM market : Filenet, Documentum,
Sharepoint, Nuxeo, Open Text, Alfresco, ... and in other fields
such as WCM (EzPublish, Drupal, Joomla...)

Open Source ECM
35. Background
• Draft specification
submitted to OASIS in
2008
• Strong participation and
collaboration among 19
vendors
• Final public draft in
January 2010
• Ratification on May 4,
2010

• Mashups
• Content Repository Search

37. Use cases for CMIS 1.0
• Secondary Use Cases
• Content-centric Workflow and BPM
• Archival Applications
• Compound and Virtual Documents
• Electronic and Legal Discovery
• Not in 1.0 Scope
• RM and Compliance
• DAM
• WCM
• Subscription and Notification

39. CMIS : a standard designed for the
development of multi-platform
connectors
• Great introspection capability for connectors
• Capabilities
• URL templates
• Customization (types, permissions, ...)
• Extensions

40. AIIM iECM Demo Server
• 5 Separate ECM
repositories in a
federated Health Care
Scenario
• Built by Laurence Hart
(@piewords) and
Thomas Pole (Harris
Corp.)
• Repositories all hosted
by vendors - US,
Europe, Cloud

45. Emergence of Chemistry
• Apache “Chemistry” Emerges as Incubator for CMIS
code base
• Nuxeo a co-founder in early 2009 with Day Software
• Alfresco contributes to OpenCMIS in 2010
• Active contributions ongoing by Nuxeo, Alfresco, Day,
Open Text and SAP
21
Open Source ECM
46. Objectives
• Having a free, open-source, implementation of CMIS
specifications, client and server side, in java and
possibly other languages (currently Python and
PHP)
• Offering tools to facilitate exposition of third party
content manager as CMIS server.
• Offering a great way of making main actors of CMIS
specification working together and dicussing
together the good and the bad of the spec :)

48. Already implemented by
some of the main ECM
vendors !
• Nuxeo DM, DAM and CMF are CMIS compliant
• Alfresco, Sharepoint 2010, FIlenet, Documentum (in next
release), SAP is also using the standard to browse
documents from their ERP interfaces
24
Open Source ECM
49. Already lots of connectors !
• Drupal connector, Ezpublish connector : publish content to
WCM solution
• Adobe Drive 2 : connect all the Adobee creative suite to your
asset repository
• Bonita Software connector: make the BPM engine dialogs
with the CMIS complient directory .

• Browse CMIS repository
• View Documents
• Email Documents
• Search
• View Document Properties

54. Already in development
projects relying on CMIS !
• Education industry : big projects using central repositories.
• Changing the repository in the middle of the project: that
works !

55. A revolution in the way an
ECM platform is chosen !
• ECM platform not chosen anymore for interest in a specific third
party tool : those ones will be cross-ecm platform available.
• The ECM platform will be chosen for criteria such as
• Reliability
• Security
• Scalability
• Openness of the architecture, maintenance capabilities...
• Cost can also be considered as long as previous items are filled !
