Federated ECM Search with CMIS

The document discusses Content Management Interoperability Services (CMIS), which aims to address challenges of interoperability between different content management systems. CMIS creates a standard for querying, inheriting properties, and performing basic CRUD operations across repositories. It allows for new classes of cross-repository applications and brings maturity to a fragmented industry. The document outlines the goals of CMIS, who is involved in its development, how it works through web services and AtomPub bindings, and provides an example of a search federator application demo.
