A solution we built for a client.

Alfresco DM: Users / authors login and create content, through a custom UI. Includes workflow, multi lingual content, versioning, editions etc.

Alfresco WCM: Authors use a publish button on the custom UI, which automatically copies the content and related assets to Alfresco WCM, transforms it to correct XML format and uses WCM deployment to deploy the content to remote Drupal instance.

Drupal: XML-RPC extensions to store the content in the Drupal database and work independently of Alfresco.

This de-coupled solution means Drupal can scale on it's own. Alfresco WCM enables publishing to one or more drupal instances. Easy to set up new Drupal instance and get it updated to the latest content.

Drop me a message if you want more info.

Hi,

I'm new in Alfresco 3.4.x and we have to integrate Drupal 7 (as a presentation tier) and Alfresco (as document repository). Alfresco is now running and we use kerberos for SSO.

I have a pair of questions regarding to the integration:

Drupal 7 doesn't have now a stable Kerberos module, so in order to access the Alfresco content through CMIS;

1.- Is it mandatory to use Kerberos in Drupal in order to pass the Kerberos token through CMIS to Alfresco? It is possible to do this?
2.- Could CMIS work with Alfresco independently of the Alfresco SSO mechanism? Could you give me a reference on how to do it?

Thank you in advance,

Jose
