The Java Content Repository (JCR) industry standard - also known as JSR 170 - helps companies around the world streamline access to distributed information. Day, as specification lead of the JCR standard spearheads the industry efforts to unify interoperability to the ever-growing array of information silos.
Day CRX is a commercially packaged version of the Apache Jackrabbit and Sling open source projects:
- Apache Jackrabbit is the reference implementation of the Java Content Repository (JCR) standard
- Apache Sling is a rapid web-application framework designed to unleash the full power of the Java Content Repository to the web
Day CRX is enriched with unique enterprise features for high availability, cloud-style scalability and security infrastructure integration. It comes packaged with a web-based administration console, desktop integration and a developer productivity toolchain.
Whether you are a developer, a small and midsize enterprise, or a large enterprise, there is a Day CRX edition that meets your requirements. All editions share the same code base allowing you to easily scale your solution from a single server to a clustered multi-server environment, leaving any application unchanged.
