Nuxeo Content Platform

Summarize
Perspective

Nuxeo Content Platform is an open source Enterprise Content Management platform, written in Java. Data can be stored in both SQL & NoSQL databases.

The development of the Nuxeo Content Platform is mostly done by Nuxeo employees with an open development model.

The source code, documentation, roadmap, issue tracker, testing, benchmarks are all public.

Applications

Typically, Nuxeo users build different types of information management for document management, case management, and digital asset management use cases. It uses schema-flexible metadata & content models that allows content to be repurposed to fulfill future use cases.

Architecture

Nuxeo Content Platform is a set of server-side and client-side software artifacts and tools that allow users to build, operate and maintain customized content management applications. The platform is composed of several layers:

  • Nuxeo Runtime: The underlying component model that is used to declare, configure, test and activate services
  • Nuxeo Core: The document repository providing schema management, CRUD, indexing & query. Implementation can rely on SQL or NoSQL depending on the use cases.
  • Nuxeo Services: A set of document-related services that can be added on top of Nuxeo Core
    • Workflows, annotations, conversions, renditions...
  • Client Libs: Client-side libraries encapsulating the server REST API
  • Client SDKs: UI components and pre-built UI for various platforms
    • Nuxeo Elements for Web Components and WebUI
    • Nuxeo Mobile for mobile devices
    • Nuxeo Drive for filesystem synchronization

The Nuxeo Content Platform is based on a configurable and extendable component model.

Using an open source development model, Nuxeo provides a subscription program with software maintenance, technical support, and customization tools. Nuxeo Content Platform can be deployed on-premises or in the cloud via services like Nuxeo Studio to deliver cloud content management services.
