Latest Developments in Content Management Standardization: The Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS) Standard Proposal by OASIS

Ugo Corda

This paper is an introduction to the OASIS content management standardization effort, still under way, called Content Management Interoperability Services. — After describing the rationale, history, goals and scope of the standardization project, the paper presents the basic architecture and technology components of the standard, including the abstract Domain Model (composed of a Data Model and a set of Services operating on the Data Model) and two concrete instantiations of that abstract model - i.e., the Web Services Binding and the RESTful AtomPub Binding. — Following a brief review of currently available implementations, the paper concludes with a discussion of how well the standard meets the needs of a typical content management system targeting the Media & Entertainment industry.
