CARA – A CMIS based web browser interface to Documentum, SharePoint and Alfresco
Posted by Nico in CMIS Clients on 9. March 2010
Generis offers a full functionality document management web application that provides a single interface to all CMIS-compliant repositories. Based on producers website it is currently released for Documentum , SharePoint and Alfresco. Releases for the file system, FileNet and LiveLink are planed in the coming months. CARA3 connects to the repositories using the very latest CMIS functionality which allows your to build a common set of functionality to be used on the multiple repositories. The stated aim of the OASIS CMIS Technical Committee is “Using Web services and Web 2.0 interfaces to enable information sharing across content management repositories from different vendors”.
The software is built on the Google Web Toolkit. This allows them to build an interface quickly, and most importantly to separate the backend, repository-specific functionality from the user interface, which allowed the user interface to be reusable for multiple repository types. CARA3 provides full authoring, review, approval and publishing functionality to end users together with. Read the rest of this entry »

CMS FirstSpirit accesses Sharepoint and Alfresco through CMIS
Posted by Nico in CMIS Clients, WCM on 25. February 2010
ARITHNEA just released a new module for the High-End Content Management System FirstSpirit ™ called DMS connect.
DMS connect uses CMIS to connect to different Document Management Systems. The module successfully works with Sharepoint 2010 and Alfresco 3.2. Not all CMIS features have been implemented yet. Within the next weeks it will also be tested against the Nuxeo repository that already offers CMIS. The module is meant to work with all CMIS compliant DMS. This will be tested as soon those repositories are available.
This images shows an editor mask within the web content management.
It is possible to connect to more than one repository with this module. The editors can choose which repository they want to access (red section). This can be easily switched through a drop-down list.
With this module the online editors have direct access to the DMS. They can directly choose the files they want to publish to the website. There is no need anymore to copy documents to the internal media store. This way the document management process stays within the DMS and the editorial process stays in the CMS. This makes web publishing with documents much more efficient. Read the rest of this entry »

Posted by Nico in CMIS Clients on 8. February 2010
WeWebU Software AG is now a member of the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) and its Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) Technical Committee (TC).
WeWebU already has a software named OpenWorkdesk that acts as a powerful client to different ECM systems. The following ECM systems can already be accessed:
IBM ECM systems:
- IBM FileNet Image Services
- IBM FileNet Content Manager
- IBM FileNet Business Process Manager
- IBM Content Manager (CM8)
- IBM Content Manager on Demand
Other ECM systems can also be supported through JSR 170.
With the coming CMIS adapter, its user-friendly applications will be interoperable with almost every ECM system and usable even for almost every cross-repository scenario. The WeWebU OpenWorkdesk for CMIS will be available in the first half of 2010 with only short delay after the finalization of the CMIS specification by OASIS.

The AIIM iECM CMIS Demo 2009
Posted by Nico in CMIS Server, DMS on 28. January 2010
Thomas Pole and Laurence Hart wrote a document about the AIIM iECM CMIS Demo 2009 (iECM is the abbreviation for AIIM’s Interoperable ECM).
Within this document they explain how the CMIS demo was planned and accomplished. The concept was to create a federated search interface that would allow users to search multiple repositories from a single search screen. Several vendors showed interest in assisting the iECM committee and participated on the initial planning calls. At the End Nuxeo, EMC and Alfresco commited themselves to participate to make their repositories CMIS mostly compliant for this demo. This demo has been presented at the AIIM Expo 2009.

CMIS Shell (cmissh) – command-line client for CMIS
Posted by Nico in CMIS Clients, CMIS Tools / APIs on 21. January 2010
Stefane Fermigier just posted a CMIS shell client (cmissh). The client has been developed by Nuxeo - the developer of a famous Open Source Enterprise Content Management System.
cmissh can be used interactively (with a nice autocompletion console) to explore and run CRUD operations on a CMIS server, or as a testing tool. We’ve included, for instance, a test script in the distribution, called ‘testscript’, that can be run against the Nuxeo demo server and will fail on errors. I’ve also been able to use cmissh against the Chemistry test server.
They have decided to donate the code to the Apache Chemistry project. Please check the blog post to get a shell usage example.
