Document management system for Liferay Portal
Objective:
We want to scale the Liferay
to manage documents in hierarchical manner which we uploaded using Documents
and Media Library, where our Liferay is in a cluster mode and we can maintain
the data as easy as we can.
Different Ways to achieve DMS in Liferay:
Liferay
introduces a new Document and Media Library which is capable of mounting
several repositories at a time and presenting a unified interface to the user.
By Default, users can make use of the Liferay repository, which is already
mounted. This repository is built into Liferay Portal and can use as its
back-end one of several different store implementations. In addition to this,
many different kind of third party repositories can be mounted. If you have a
separate repository you’ve mounted, all nodes of the cluster will point to this
repository. Your avenue for improving performance at this point is to cluster
your third party repository, using the documentation of the repository you have
chosen. If you don’t have a third party repository, there are ways you can
configure the Liferay repository to perform well in clustered
configuration.
