Hello Everyone,
In one of my projects I am planning to use WebSphere portal server 6.1 for the user interface and Documentum as a enterprise content repository. I need to provide funcaionalities like create documents/check-in/check-out, display the taxonomy, display workflow tasks (Inbox), start trigger the workflow etc.
The webspeher portal and documentum will be installed on different servers.
From the documention I read so far, I think I have following integrations options available to me -
1. DFC - It is suggested to use this for low level granular operations.
2. DFS - Webservices based. Performance may not be good as I need lot of interactions with documentum from the user interface.
3. Java Services - Course grained JAVA API. Documentation suggests to use these for local invocations (In my case both will be installed on separate servers). Ideal for creating new webservices.
4. CMIS - This is still in beta and will be more or less same as DFS performance wise.
5. RESTful - This is not yet production ready.
5. There are some WDK portlets (JSR168) available but will need lot of customizations.
I need some inputs from the documentum community as to what would be the best integration option for me? If there are any best practices/case studies around the same could you please point me to those?
Best regards,
Sachin.
