Single Unified Repository

Most scalable Java content repository. High availability clustered, federated or replicated architecture. Deployment and staging services. Pluggable services architecture – e.g. new transformation engines for video

Multi-Tenancy

The new multi-tenancy (MT) features enable Alfresco ECM to be configured as a single-instance multi-tenant environment. This enables multiple independent tenants to be hosted on a single instance, which can be installed either on a single server or across a cluster of servers. The Alfresco instance is logically partitioned such that it will appear to each tenant that they are accessing a completely separate instance of Alfresco

Support for Standards

Content Management API Standards - CMIS with a REST or Web services binding, JSR 170, WebDAV, CIFS, FTP, ODF, OpenSearch. Standards – RSS, Atom, JSON, JSR 168
