The document provides an overview of Apache Jackrabbit, a content repository system that implements the JSR 170 specification. It discusses Jackrabbit's basic content modeling approach using node types and hierarchies, alternative views through references and search capabilities, advanced features like versioning and personalization, and best practices for implementation. The presentation concludes with encouragement to consider content management for any application that stores digital assets and information.

- 5. Apache Jackrabbit: Words of advice Read (or browse) the JCR specification jcr-1.0.jar included Getting started with Jackrabbit jackrabbit-webapp: Drop-in deployment First Hops: Embedded repository Take your time Resources Mailing lists: Excellent support, but may delay you Website: Some good parts, but not complete or very well structured Wiki: End user experience (especially for JBoss) FAQ: outdated Issue tracker: Good response time

- 7. Introducing JCR Tunes JCR example application “ How to implement a music store or library with JCR?” Designed to showcase JCR features and best practices JCR book in progress Store and manage individual “tunes”, optionally organized in albums, etc. Support alternative views like predefined genres, or more ad-hoc searches Integrated handling of reviews, cover images, and other related content Staged publishing and timed releases of tunes or albums Personalization for things like settings, favorites, personal play-lists, etc. Extensibility and flexibility
- 8. Starting point: Leverage the standard node types Type hierarchy Content hierarchy nt:hierarchyNode nt:folder nt:file nt:linkedFile nt:resource
- 9. Bottom-up modeling: Content types my:resource > nt:resource codec (string) bitrate (long) my:tune > nt:file artist (string) release date (date) my:album > nt:folder artist (string) release date (date) my:review > nt:file author (string) star rating (long)

- 11. Content Modeling: Words of advice Namespaces Use a single namespace per company or application Use a reasonably unique namespace prefix Prefixed names for structured content Default namespace for unstructured content Use an application root node, /my:content Good for searching, backup, and migration Avoid flat hierarchies User interface complexity Jackrabbit performance Content-driven design Design your content before your application

- 15. Alternative Views: Words of advice Moderate use of references Circular references only within a subtree Plan for backup and content migration Jackrabbit performance: max 10k references to a single node Best search performance when selecting a small subset of content No joins or aggregate searches Full text indexing of binary properties only for jcr:data in nt:resource nodes Formatting date queries ISO 8601 as the string format session.getValueFactory().createValue(Calendar.getInstance()).getString() JCR 2.0: Query Object Model? Mandatory SQL?

- 19. Authentication and Authorization Java Authentication and Authorization Services (JAAS) Mostly the authentication part is currently used by Jackrabbit Pluggable authentication components Support for single sing-on Custom AccessManager interface in Jackrabbit Pluggable authorization components The default implementation supports only global read, write, and admin access More advanced implementations are proprietary Repository-level authentication and authorization applies to all clients Better than application-level authorization

- 21. Last words Everything is content Application content HTML pages, CSS and JavaScript files, static images JSP pages, Java classes and libraries Documentation, resource bundles, etc. With versioning, export/import, full text search, etc. Web-friendly Trivial URI mapping WebDAV access for free Dispatch on node type, not on URI path In your application?
