Thomas Mueller commented on JCR-3534:
-------------------------------------
Sounds good. In addition, I think we should consider having a mechanism to
expire the identifier, similar to Amazon S3. I found some information here:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14414455/amazon-s3-generating-an-expiring-link-using-ruby-1-9-3
What do you think about the limited lifetime of an identifier? I think it might
be overkill, but I'm not sure.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JCR-3534
> Project: Jackrabbit Content Repository
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: jackrabbit-api, jackrabbit-core
> Affects Versions: 2.6

>
> we have a couple of use cases, where we would like to leverage the global
> data store to prevent sending around and copying around large binary data
> unnecessarily: We have two separate Jackrabbit instances configured to use
> the same DataStore (for the sake of this discussion assume we have the
> problems of concurrent access and garbage collection under control). When
> sending content from one instance to the other instance we don't want to send
> potentially large binary data (e.g. video files) if not needed.
> The idea is for the sender to just send the content identity from
> JackrabbitValue.getContentIdentity(). The receiver would then check whether
> the such content already exists and would reuse if so:
> String ci = contentIdentity_from_sender;
> try {
> Value v = session.getValueByContentIdentity(ci);
> Property p = targetNode.setProperty(propName, v);
> } catch (ItemNotFoundException ie) {
> // unknown or invalid content Identity
> } catch (RepositoryException re) {
> // some other exception
> }
> Thus the proposed JackrabbitSession.getValueByContentIdentity(String) method
> would allow for round tripping the JackrabbitValue.getContentIdentity()
> preventing superfluous binary data copying and moving.
