CMIS and GED managment !!

[ahmeddrira]

HI
as it is clear  CMIS permit just the content management of a  repositories
i have to develop a java application that permit to manage any GED and  the content ;
the solution for content is OKI "opencmis" but "creating , deleting , manging user , groupes …" is impossible  for opencmis ,

so any suggestion to do that with out being coupled to a specific GED  ?

What's a GED?

i am using alfresco but if  i want  to change it by nexo or  other ECM , it 's possible using CMIS , just  i have problem in managing the ECM
, i can't  write a code for a specific ECM
if my client want to change his ECM , he can do it without writing a  new code for manging user in the new ECM

i am looking for LDAP if  it can solve a part of my problem

Unfortunately there's no "standard" for group management.     I'd expect it to be added to CMIS in future, but its not there yet.

You are right that part of the solution for Group management would be to use an external system like LDAP.     But I think for the time being you will need to consider an "adapter" layer to interface with each repo's proprietery API.
