gCube CMS Suite

gCube CMS Suite is a distributed full stack application for publication management in a gCube Hybrid e-infrastructure. Check wiki here

Rationale :

Publication involves lots of common features as well as custom behaviour and formats. The service implements the basic common logic, delegating to installed plugin both custom and configurable functions ranging from validation, data manifestation, indexing and lifecycle management. Lifecycle management is itself an extension allowing for both common and complex ad-hoc workflows. High modularity of plugins allows for the composition of ad hoc use cases with maximized re-usability.

The suite comes with a set of pre-built plugins and GUIs that communities can easily extend and / or reuse.

Built with

• gCube SmartGears - The gCube SmartGears framework
• OpenJDK - The JDK used
• JAX-RS - Java™ API for RESTful Web Services
• Jersey - JAX-RS runtime
• Maven - Dependency Management
• Enunciate - API Documentation
