JCR via RMI
Hi all,
We're in the process of developing a web content management system,
and we have just discovered Sling. It seems like a great platform for
us to build our application on top of.
>From just test-driving Sling, it appears that it hosts its own
Jackrabbit instance. In our scenario, we would like to keep our
application and Jackrabbit on separate servers, for easier scaling.
Is it possible to configure Sling to connect to a remote Jackrabbit
repository over RMI, instead of hosting its own repository?

Great, thanks! We will give it a shot.

Hi,
If you set the configuration property "name" to the RMI URL, the
SlingClientRepository class fails getting the repository by JNDI and
uses the RMI URL to get the repository in the lower part of the
getRepository() method.

Looking at the SlingClientRepository class [1], I don't see how one
could set the RMI connection parameters - but if configurable
properties are missing, it shouldn't be hard to add them.

Sure, just replace the jackrabbit-server bundle contained by default
with the jackrabbit-client bundle and you can access your repository
over RMI.
Hope this helps.
