VCS vs JCR repository

[jiveforums-ecm]

I was wondering why one would want to use the VCS repository instead of the JCR/JackRabbit repository?  Are their any documents that do a side by side comparison of the features or advantages of using one over the other?

I'm sure there are lots of good technical reasons why the VCS is better,
but a simple one is the ability to easily examine your repository data
using SQL. And when you modify document types (schemas) in your
application it is very easy to migrate the database structure as necessary.

Sean

The benefits of VCS are that it greatly facilitates:

- bulk import/export (standard SQL dump/reload is possible),
- schema migration (ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN are possible, automatically
done by Nuxeo when fields are added to schemas),
- backups (use the standard solution for your database),
- debugging (see your data with standard tools),
- statistics gathering (create any report you like on your raw data).

Among others :)

Hello,


Here was an answer from Florent

- bulk import/export (standard SQL dump/reload is possible),
- schema migration (ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN are possible, automatically
done by Nuxeo when fields are added to schemas),
- backups (use the standard solution for your database),
