Five of your favorite Alfresco-related presentations
If views of my presentations on SlideShare are any indication, a whole lot of you are interested in integrating Drupal and Alfresco. Despite the fact that the presentation is four years old, it consistently makes the “most viewed” list out of my uploads. If you are considering Drupal but need something a bit more document-centric to serve up your files as part of that Drupal site, take a look:
The Power of Drupal and Alfresco Together from Jeff Potts
With over 12,000 views, it is safe to say there is definitely something to the combination of Alfresco and Drupal.
Another apparent classic is:
Intro To Alfresco Part 1 from Jeff Potts
Which is kind of scary given its age and brevity. I think the popularity of this is due to the seemingly inexhaustible demand for “getting started” resources for new Alfresco developers.
This one has similar info, but with more details, and is probably a better choice for developers trying to get an extremely high-level overview:
Intro to Alfresco for Developers from Jeff Potts
The CMIS API is now the preferred way to interact with the Alfresco repository remotely, and many people use this presentation to get a quick overview:
Getting Started with CMIS from Jeff Potts
In fact, I’ll have a CMIS powerhouse panel on Tech Talk Live tomorrow (July 10, 2013). So if you are just getting started with CMIS, please join us.
If you like CMIS but you don’t want to fool around with your own server, you can use Alfresco in the Cloud. This deck gives a CMIS overview and discusses the Alfresco API at a high-level with links to sample code and screencasts:
Building Content-Rich Java Apps in the Cloud with the Alfresco API from Jeff Potts
