The most complete, authoritative work on CMIS you will find.
CMIS and Apache Chemistry in Action is a comprehensive guide to the CMIS standard and related ECM concepts, written by the authors of the standard. In it, you'll tackle hands-on examples for building applications on CMIS repositories from both the client and the server sides. You'll learn how to create new content-centric applications that install and run in any CMIS-compliant repository.

About the Technology
Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) is an OASIS standard for accessing content management systems. It specifies a vendor—and language—neutral way to interact with any compliant content repository. Apache Chemistry provides complete reference implementations of the CMIS standard with robust APIs for developers writing tools, applications, and servers.
About the book
CMIS and Apache Chemistry in Action is a comprehensive guide to the CMIS standard and related ECM concepts. In it, you'll find clear teaching and instantly useful examples for building content-centric client and server-side applications that run against any CMIS-compliant repository. In fact, using the CMIS Workbench and the InMemory Repository from Apache Chemistry, you'll have running code talking to a real CMIS server by the end of chapter 1.
What's inside
- The only CMIS book endorsed by OASIS
- Complete coverage of the CMIS 1.0 and 1.1 specifications
- Cookbook-style tutorials and real-world examples
