Content Repository

The Content Repository (CR) used within KDM Force Content Process Management platform is fully compliant with the Java Content Repository (JCR) Level 2 Specification. JCR is the acronym of the JSR 170: Content Repository for Java technology API, a new standard that prescribes the methods through which content repositories and applications should interact to deal with content in the CR. This API focuses on transactional read/write access, binary content (stream operations), textual content, full-text searching, filtering, observation, versioning, handling of hard and soft structured content. The CR is structured in one or more independent hierarchical structures of files and folders named Workspace Tree.

Information Security and Administration

The Information Security and Administration component manages the security of the Content Repository (CR) with a Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) approach that determines the exact amount of permissions over the CR that is to be granted or denied to every specific user.

RBAC manages security via two main policies: (a) by defining permissions to users defined only on the Information Security and Administration component itself (stored in SQL) without any integration to an external source of users' profiles; (b) by importing the Information Security and Administration component from an external source such as a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server, eventually enriching such integration by implementing Single Sign On (SSO).

User management

User management provides great flexibility while configurating the content management application based on the KDM Force Content Process Management platform. User management allows an Administrator to grant each user specific permissions over the Workspace Tree or part of it therefore, information inside the Content Repository can only be browsed by those with specific rights to "read" and modified by those with the rights to "read and write".
