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 »
CMIS experience at CeBIT 2010
This year I’ve been at the CeBIT with my company ARITHNEA. CeBIT is the world’s largest trade fair showcasing digital IT and telecommunications solutions for home and work environments.
We’ve presented our new CMIS module for the Web Content Management System FirstSpirit.
This module is called “DMS connect” and is responsible for the connection to the repositories of Sharepoint and Alfresco using CMIS. The module helps to easily publish documents to websites.
I showed this module to several people. Almost all of them thought that this will bring a big benefit to their publication process.
Since the CeBIT I am really sure that CMIS will become a big success!
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 »

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.
