Might I ask why you need Java per se.  Is it just because you want
platform independence?  If so, there are multiple ways to get to that. 
Nailing yourself down on a particular language will end up limiting your
field of options.

First question I would have for you is do you need instant (as opposed
to just want) retrieval  of that information over the computer, or do
you have them located in a library somewhere.  If it's the latter, you
may want to use something like mysql to just store key information about
those documents like title keywords etc and their location just to
reduce redundency.  I'd hate to think of the bill for all those manhours
scanning books even if they are, say, only 50 pages each.

And the concept that he's using these on internal documents that his
company owns the copyright on didn't occur to you?

I'm OK with everything apart from the Java bit. Sorry. It's not really
my cup of tea ( no offence ... I realise that most Java people say the
same thing about Perl ).

Re: Document archiving

2007-06-27 Thread Eddy D. Sanchez

Thanks for your answer.

I'm searching an opensource project (based on mysql obviously) that I  
can hack for my needs, but if I can't find anything, I must make one,  
my intention for technology is:

-Java for application server and framework
-store all image on a file server or into database like binary files  
(any sugestion)

-user management policies
-client interface for scan documents and storage on a database
-any server for document consulting

This application should be opensource.

If you want participate just tell me, for hack one or develop from  
scratch.

I've considered doing this, from time to time, in an open-source  
CMS. I

posted ... somewhere ... maybe here ... about a year ago, suggesting
that if someone was interested I might hack one up. No-one seemed
particularly interested. Anyway, my intention was:

 - implemented in gtk2-perl
 - cross-platform
 - store all images on a file server
 - allow user to create categories & filter etc
 - produce thumbnails of popular image types ( including PDFs )

It would be a pretty simple project - a couple of days of work,  
maximum,

for a pretty polished product. Let me know if you can't find anything,
and I may ( time permitting, and I obviously can't do it here at work,
or it wouldn't be open-source ) have a go at it.

MMM, yes, but I think that CMS isn't the solution, I want to store a  
large amount of documents and organize it with best performance for  
indexing, searching and viewing.
