Time matters (above everything else)

What is again?

(1) is a smart database

(2) is a rapid web application framework

(3) includes a bundle of finest Apache open source projects

(4) contains the full JSR-170 goodness

(5) teaches you RESTful web app development

(6) is recommended by your CIO*

Everythingis content!

- transparent versioning

- on-the-fly “schema” update

- structured query

- full-text retrieval (incl. from within documents)

- triggers

- access control on node level

What _______ data?

(1) All Fields Become Optional

(2) All Relationships Become Many-to-Many

(3) Chatter Always Expands

Rules of DatabaseApp Aging

http://push.cx/rules-of-database-app-agingJTA, JAAS, LDAP,SSO, JCR, RMI, Servlet, OSGiBingo!

The CRX data is ...

- content persistence in TAR files

- use cheap disks thanks to low I/O usage

- transactional safety

- simple backup

- highly scalable with cheap infrastructure

even remote storage (ex: via NFS mount)

The web is (always) read/write

Your advantage is time

Install CRX ........................ 1x double-click

Create Backup ................. 1x clickRestore Backup ............... 1x double-clickRecover from Disaster .... 1x double-click

Add cluster node ............. 1x click

And yes...you can automate it

New in 1.4.1

Magic happens here

Your advantage is time

(1) Implement full-text search

(2) Implement access-control

(3) Re-factor code base before release

(4) Migrate database schema

(5) Code that fancy Flash product finder(without touching the server-code)

(Bonus) Prepare your hypertext-driven services architecture proposalI love REST!
