jackrabbit consulting?

Aloha,

Jackalope has been released as 1.0. Jackalope is the reference implementation of PHPCR, which essentially ports JCR to the PHP world. More over Jackalope integrates with Jackrabbit (along with a pure PHP implementation that uses SQLite/MySQL/PostgreSQL for persistence):
https://blog.liip.ch/archive/2013/10/11/content-storage-done-right.html

At any rate, this is leading to many PHP developers starting to play with Jackrabbit, some of whom are doing fairly big projects with this setup. The Jackalope team tries to advise them as best as we can to get optimal performance. The Jackrabbit wiki does contain a few hints and we have collected a few on our side as well https://github.com/jackalope/jackalope/wiki/_pages. I realize that the big users (AdobeCQ, Magnolia, HippoCMS) maintain their own documentation, which each also contain some performance and configuration tips.

Somehow this situation is less than ideal.

What also seems to be hard to come by are people who can do Jackrabbit consulting, ie. that can help analyze performance issues and give tips for how to improve. Users coming from the PHP side can likely already benefit from someone with experience in configuring and debugging the JVM in general and I guess people able to do that should be findable. However even then some more Jackrabbit know how would be useful. Maybe it would be good to at least have an index of companies or freelancers in the wiki for this?

Agreed.  The community seems to be somewhat constrained in that direction.
 I've had trouble myself, as a direct consumer of the Jackrabbit as a db
for my own work, getting much feedback.

But I am quite happy to see your docs on the jackalope project.  I'll
consume them and give you some feedback.

its quite a pity that there seems so little interest in growing jackrabbit as an independent database solution. guess everyone is focused on just providing support as parts of  some higher level application. then again maybe I should post this on the developer list instead ..
