JCR recommendations?

Does Sun have or is Sun working on any implementation of JSR-170 Java Content Repositories?

If not, what recommendations would you have for an implementation that can store and provide user friendly interfaces for management?

I've read a little bit about Jackrabbit from Apache; is this the best recommendation at this time? After some searching it seems like this JSR is still a fledgling concept even if it is implemented widely, I cannot find much about who is using it and how.

Any shared insights are greatly appreciated :)

Thanks,
Andrew

hi andrew,

what "use case" do you want to implement with this JSR 170 compliant content repo?
i have tried apache Jackrabbit but when it comes to performance and maintainability i always found it a bit complcated for a "production" environment.

@sun and 170 afaik i think there is non of sun itself

Hi,

I'm using Alfresco which is open source but more of a "product" than Jackrabbit. It supports JCR and has a GUI. I think it's good but there are a few "gotchas" with using the JCR interface along with the GUI - you tend to have to use the Alfresco types rather than the standard ones if you want your data to be visible within the GUI.

I've not tried Jackrabbit - I'd like the time to look at it as you could probably do a nice GUI for that with JSP/JSF.

Cheers,

Ian.
