What is the expected usage of xcmis?

Would you expect a enterprise to stand up xcmis as the service layer
between enterprise applications and CMIS support repository. The
ability to easily search, retrieve, load documents.

Hi,

xCMIS library is used as a middle layer between the storage and application.

It contains relatively simple proprietary SPI (Storage Provider Interface)
which allows to build CMIS wrapper around any (business specific)
content storage.

xCMIS SPI documentation is in progress but the sources are pretty good
documented so, if you are Java developer you can look at xcmis-spi module
and generate JavaDoc.

Naturally, xCMIS supports both RESTAtom and WS-SOAP CMIS binding
as it required specification so any standard client can work with xCMIS.

Thanks for you interest and feel free if you need some specific information
about xCMIS.

Cheers,

Gennady
