As of Fedora 6.0, Modeshape is no longer being used as a component of Fedora's storage layer. The information on this page information applies only to versions 4.x and 5.x. |
ModeShape is a JCR implementation with a slew of additional services and functionality, including a REST/HTTP API, additional query languages (including full-text search), clustering and federation, and automatic disassembly of ingested content into repository nodes.
From the ModeShape website:
ModeShape is a distributed, hierarchical, transactional, and consistent data store with support for queries, full-text search, events, versioning, references, and flexible and dynamic schemas. It is very fast, highly available, extremely scalable, and it is 100% open source and written in Java. Clients use the (JSR-283) standard Java API for content repositories (aka, JCR) or ModeShape's REST API, and can query content through JDBC and SQL.
Please see the ModeShape project documentation for more information.
