Nuxeo Platform Roadmap

Nuxeo Platform Checkup: a tool for easily uploading the instance configuration and state to jira when creating support tickets.

Nuxeo Platform Checkup

Goal: make it easy to

● set up a Nuxeo Cluster● Deploy an application configuration● Apply Hotfixes

Proposed Solution: a cluster manager server to which nodes will subscribe.

Nuxeo Cluster

● Some observations: our event bus system is in-house and hasn’t change for

long. It needs integration capability with externals

● Jobs and queues design is also in-house while it is a common piece of

intrastructure

● Many people not happy at Nuxeo of the way it is right now !

⇒ Reimplementation using a messaging framework (ex: Kafka)

Event Bus and Workmanager re-implementation

● Relationship service as not been advertised much

● Reference field could also be seen as a relation ship definition

● What we wan’t is ability to query (join) relation ships

⇒ Use Elasticsearch to index related documents

⇒ Provide a way to easily declare relations (maybe based on the schemas definition)

Relationship and Linked Documents Index

Goal: make operations on large set of documents work and scale

Solution: use backend capabilities. Ex: MongoDB

Scope: lifecycle update, deletion, acls, quotas, bulk metadata update

Batch Processing

● More coherent automated versioning policies

● Tree Versioning

Versioning

● CouchBase

● PG + JSON

NoSQL Implementations

● Let’s bootstrap a completely new web app using client side components

● Then work on pluggability/extensibility

● Scope: Browse/Create - Search - Workflow - User Experience Roadmap

(Right panel, Image Preview, removable left tree…)

Goal: make sure we are not slowed down to much by legacy and provide a

modern/ responsive UI for LTS 2016.

JSF web app will still be used and released until we are happy we what we have

on the other side. Maybe also we will realize there are good mixed strategies.
