ModeShape (formerly "JBoss DNA") is a JCR 2.0 (JSR-283) implementation that provides access to content stored in many different kinds of systems. A ModeShape repository isn't yet another silo of isolated information, but rather it's a JCR view of the information you already have in your environment: files systems, databases, other repositories, services, applications, etc. To your applications, ModeShape looks and behaves like a regular JCR repository. Using the standard JCR API, applications can search, navigate, version, and listen for changes in the content. But under the covers, ModeShape gets its content by federating multiple back-end systems (like databases, services, other repositories, etc.), allowing those systems to continue "owning" the information while ensuring the unified repository stays up-to-date and in sync. ModeShape repositories can be used in a variety of applications. One of the most obvious ones is in provisioning and management, where it's critical to understand and keep track of the metadata for models, database, services, components, applications, clusters, machines, and other systems used in an enterprise. Governance takes that a step farther, by also tracking the policies and expectations against which performance can be verified. In these cases, a repository is an excellent mechanism for managing this complex and highly-varied information. But a ModeShape repository doesn't have to be large and complex: it could just manage configuration information for an application, or it could just provide a JCR interface on top of a couple of non-JCR systems.

Welcome to the community home for Pentaho Data Integration Community Edition (PDI CE) also known as Kettle. Pentaho Data Integration delivers powerful Extraction, Transformation and Loading (ETL) capabilities using an innovative, metadata-driven approach. With an intuitive, graphical, drag and drop design environment, and a proven, scalable, standards-based architecture, Pentaho Data Integration is increasingly the choice for organizations over traditional, proprietary ETL or data integration tools. Community Edition is self supported open source software. An Enterprise Edition (EE) of Pentaho Data Integration including technical support, managed upgrades and enterprise features is also available. For more information about EE or for screenshots and datasheets, visit Pentaho Data Integration EE on Pentaho's corporate site.

WeWebU OpenWorkdesk is an application suite (not just a CMIS browser!) for Enterprise Content Management (ECM) with an intuitive Web 2.0 front-end. OpenWorkdesk applications are future-proof and protect your investments because the user interface and the application layer have been separated from the underlying ECM system. This separation allows you to continue using your applications without laborious modifications even after an upgrade or change of the ECM platform. OpenWorkdesk Community Edition is available for all CMIS-compliant ECM systems such as Alfresco ECM, IBM FileNet P8, Nuxeo and EMC Documentum. Therefore, it provides a very cost-efficient but nevertheless fully professional way of managing and retrieving documents.

Daffodil Replicator is a Java tool for data synchronization, data migration, and data backup between various database servers. Daffodil Replicator works over standard JDBC driver and supports replication across heterogeneous databases. At present, it supports following databases: Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, Daffodil DB, DB2, Derby, MySql, and PostGreSql. Daffodil Replicator is available in both enterprise and open source versions referred as Daffodil Replicator(E) and Daffodil Replicator(OS) respectively. For more details on Daffodil Replicator (E) or Daffodil Replicator (OS), click on the links on the left.

SymmetricDS is web-enabled, database independent, data synchronization/replication software. It uses web and database technologies to replicate tables between relational databases in near real time. The software was designed to scale for a large number of databases, work across low-bandwidth connections, and withstand periods of network outage. By using database triggers, SymmetricDS guarantees that data changes are captured and atomicity is preserved. Support for database vendors is provided through a Database Dialect layer, with implementations for MySQL, Oracle, SQL Server, PostgreSQL, DB2, Firebird, HSQLDB, H2, and Apache Derby included. Synchronization can be configured to push data (trickle-back) or pull data (trickle-poll) at an interval. SymmetricDS allows for synchronization between two or more tiers of nodes, such as the following: A farm of web server nodes fronting an enterprise-class general office database A handful of regional servers for synchronizing from the general office to remote geographical areas 1000(s) of store server nodes using a departmental class database to sync with a regional node 10(s) of Point of Sale (POS) register nodes using an embedded database to sync with a store server Deployment options include the following: Web application archive (WAR) deployed to an application server such as Tomcat, Jetty, or JBoss Standalone service Embedded in an application SymmetricDS is written in Java and licensed as open source software under the GNU Lesser General Public License (LGPL).

Apache Shiro (pronounced "shee-roh", the Japanese word for 'castle') is a powerful and easy-to-use Java security framework that performs authentication, authorization, cryptography, and session management and can be used to secure any application - from the command line applications, mobile applications to the largest web and enterprise applications. Shiro provides the application security API to perform the following aspects (I like to call these the 4 cornerstones of application security): Authentication - proving user identity, often called user 'login'. Authorization - access control Cryptography - protecting or hiding data from prying eyes Session Management - per-user time-sensitive state Shiro also supports some auxiliary features, such as web application security, unit testing, and multithreading support, but these exist to reinforce the above four primary concerns.
