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.

Posted by Nico in CMIS Server, DMS on 17. December 2009
IBM offers a technical preview for there CMIS implementation that provides support for the CMIS REST/Atom binding for the IBM® FileNet® and IBM Content Manager repositories.
The preview provides a servlet (CMIS web application) packaged as a WAR (Web Application Archive) file that can be deployed in WebSphere®, to support REST services expressed in the CMIS specification. The CMIS web application translates these services at run time to Java™ API calls to the IBM FileNet and IBM Content Manager repositories. The preview uses the IBM FileNet and IBM Content Manager Java APIs to access the native repository.
You can download this preview here (30 MB).
