open source DMS Jackrabbit/modeshape/nuxeo

Question

I'm looking for open source DMS/EDM solution.

So i'm seeing :

1. Jackrabbit
   
   • project seems dead
     
2. Modeshape:
   
   • The documentation seems quite good
     
   • But the project is dead ? I haven't seen push in master since 9 month ago : https://github.com/ModeShape/modeshape
     
   • Default rest api seems succinct.
3. Jackrabbit oak:
   • I'm little bit confused by the documentation.
   • I didn't see rest-api?
     
4. Nuxeo
   
   • They seems have everything that i need.
   • Their rest-api appears to me good?
   • But i didn't understead if it's free or not.
     

I think, this kind of question was done almost 7 years ago: What does ModeShape offer that JackRabbit doesn't?

So what it is your opinion on this subject ? Did i miss something ?
Do you known others solutions?
Do you known if one is better than others?

Answer 1

Nuxeo is Open Source and is free for use. Nuxeo customers pay for support and additional services.

Answer 2

Jackrabbit "classic" is in maintenance mode. Jackrabbit Oak is very active.

Regarding the documentation: what exactly are you looking for? In doubt, mail the users mailing list.

Regarding HTTP API: there are various ways to expose Oak over HTTP, such as using Apache Sling or Jackrabbit WebDAV...
