OpenJPA for Content Servers
Hi,
I work for a Documentum Based product development company. Is there any way OpenJPA applied for Content Servers.
Thanks

Hi Sriram,
It largely depends on how you communicate with docbase. JPA (typically)
interacts with JDBC, if there's a JDBC interface to the docbase you're using
then it will be fairly straightforward to use a JPA provider to do the
interactions.
If there isn't a JDBC driver for docbase then it's more difficult. OpenJPA
supports different back ends, but you'd have to write a fair bit of code to
talk to docbase's interface.
hope this helps,

Kevin,
Actually this is how it works
client ======>docbase(Content Server) ===> database.
(DFC-libraries)
DFC==>Documentum Foundation Classes.
If we are using a docbase from Documentum , is it possible for the client to connect with docbase using JPA.
like
client ===>JPA===>docbase==>database
docbase just stores meta data, whereas the actual data is still stored in database.
Thanks
sriram

Sure. Most Content Servers still require some type of database to
persistently store the "content", right? So, the implementation of a
Content Server could easily use Entities to define their data model and use
generic JPA constructs to persist the data. Independent from any particular
database implementation (ie. not dependent on specific JDBC or SQL
dialects). Sounds like a good fit, from my personal perspective. :-)

Sure. Most Content Servers still require some type of database to
persistently store the "content", right? So, the implementation of a
Content Server could easily use Entities to define their data model and use
generic JPA constructs to persist the data. Independent from any particular
database implementation (ie. not dependent on specific JDBC or SQL
dialects). Sounds like a good fit, from my personal perspective. :-)
