Many global organizations face similar challenges around sharing information in a timely fashion between regions; for publishers this is often exacerbated due to the size of some their assets such as print quality images or video. Alfresco, with its open extensible architecture, makes a great basis for a global enterprise content or digital asset management system yet there are still numerous challenges to tackle when implementing on a global scale. Federation is one approach that can be used successfully when the regions are generally independent in the production of content, but are producing assets that can be consumed and re-used globally. Alfresco 4.0 uses Solr and that can be leveraged to provide federated search across multiple, disparate Alfresco repositories. This session will cover how: Federated search provided remote content discovery; Share was customized to handle federated search; Intelligent storage provided eventual consistency of files; and Users could request content migration on-demand.
