Welcome to Apache Jackrabbit

The Apache Jackrabbit™ content repository is a fully conforming implementation of the Content Repository for Java Technology API (JCR, specified in JSR 170 and JSR 283).

A content repository is a hierarchical content store with support for structured and unstructured content, full text search, versioning, transactions, observation, and more.

Jackrabbit Oak is a complementary implementation of the JCR specification. It is an effort to implement a scalable and performant hierarchical content repository for use as the foundation of modern world-class web sites and other demanding content applications. See the Jackrabbit Oak website for more information.

Apache Jackrabbit is a project of the Apache Software Foundation
