In this blog post I'm going to share how to deploy the brand new Alfresco Content Services Community Edition 201806 GA Release. The new deployment mechanism, announced as major change in the ACS 6.x version, discontinued the traditional wizard and introduced a new Dockerized deployment for the benefit of the Developers and DevOps. The manual installation using the ZIP file containing the artifacts is still available and can be downloaded here.
Disclaimer: The intent of this blog post is to share a simple tutorial for the newbies on Alfresco Content Services, where to learn how to rapidly start to launch and using it. A lot of official and unofficial documentation is available (for free) in this community portal (and outside of it). Please refer to the 'Other resources' paragraph, for further details.
