Introduction to RCMP and Bundles WHAT IS RCMP? WHAT IS A BUNDLE? • Documentum Platform initiative for next • Packaging and Deployment generation client infrastructure Framework for next-generation • Allows UI components to be built using a Documentum solutions number of technologies • Based on OSGi technology • JavaScript (Ext JS), Flex • Infrastructure manages interaction across UI components & technologies, event management • Flexible a-la-carte approach • i.e., use RCMP components, but a different container • Models for configuration and customization of components • Supported by tooling from the ground-up • Used today in CenterStage © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. 16

Benefits of using Bundles 1. OSGi is an industry standard – Foundation for Eclipse IDE, BEA WebLogic, IBM WebSphere 2. Bundle deployment mechanism eliminates need for a traditional installer 3. Allows for incremental deployment and rolling upgrade 4. Provides a consistent deployment mechanism for widgets 5. Provides a model for leveraging extension points 6. Supports versioning and dependency management – Specify Bundle A v2.0 requires Bundle B v1.0 – v2.0 – Will be leveraged in future releases of RCMP and CenterStage © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. 17

Bundles and RCMP in CenterStage • Core subset of CenterStage widgets are built as RCMP components Data Grid Widget Popular Tags Widget • Users can construct new Page Templates based on reusable widgets • RCMP-based CenterStage widgets are packaged into a set of bundles • Bundles themselves are packaged into the CenterStage .ear/war file Document Viewer Widget Tagged Content Widget © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. 18

RCMP Components and Composer • Wizard based widget creation • WYSIWYG widget configuration • IDE integration for widget development • Automatically generate templates for localizations • Automated packaging for deployment © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. 19

Widgets and Configuration Composer CenterStage Pro • Widget development includes defining configuration parameters – i.e. Widget title, number of displayed items • Configuration parameters can be accessed from widget code • Allows a generic widget to be configured to apply application context © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. 20

Widget Development • Developers create widgets using Ext JS and Flex • RCMP and CenterStage provide additional re-usable JavaScript libraries • Leverage extension point mechanism for registering widgets • At packaging time, developer packages widget as a bundle • Bundle can be hot deployed • Via extension points, widget registry automatically picks up newly deployed bundles © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. 21

Sizing and Benchmark Resources The following sizing and benchmark resources will be available for CenterStage: Sizing Guide Oracle Benchmark SQL Server Benchmark Provides estimates of a Provide a typical benchmark Provide a typical benchmark customer's hardware configuration using an configuration using an resource needs based on Oracle data base Microsoft SQL Server data user and hardware profiles base provided by the customer. © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation.

Deployment Considerations – Single Stack • Single stack installer: 2 installers  CenterStage Essentials stack installer  CenterStage Pro stack installer  Deployment can be virtualized  Aimed at development or small departmental deployments (~10 concurrent users) Client Tier (Browser) CENTERSTAGE CENTERSTAGE ESSENTIALS PRO STACK Server STACK Tier © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. 23

Enterprise Deployment Considerations • Distributed installation configuration • Can leverage BOCS (requires the plug-in) and ACS Client Tier (Browser) Web Tier CS Essentials Web Application CS Pro Web Application Server Tier Content Server Full Text Index Thumbnail Generator ECIS / CIS © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation. All rights reserved. Upgrade to MTS 24

EMC CMA Internal Deployment Storage • Use of SAN storage device for frequently used content: – Use Clariion CX4 for production storage – Use 900 GB of storage for production data • Use of Centera CAS storage for less frequently used content and archiving on reliable, less expensive storage: – Used in conjunction with Documentum Content Service for EMC Centera – Use 2 TB of storage for production data • Use EMC Control Center 6.0 for managing SLA and storage planning and provisioning • Use PowerPath 5.1 for load balancing and redundant path for host to storage array • Use Navisphere Host Agent to provide management communication path to the Clariion system © Copyright 2009 EMC Corporation.
