HI community,
I'm doing a comparative study beetween CMIS AND REST.
I already list the features offered by CMIS AND REST ,can someone help me to do a conclusion that shows the advantages and disadvantages of both , except that REST offers more features than CMIS
Thanks for your question.
I suggest you also post your comparison ("list of features"). It may also help you reach your own conclusion based on your context & evaluation criteria.

Thank you Jan Vonka for your advise and links , i post my comparison even if it's in French? , to summarize i have recovered all the CMIS features from Index of /cmis/CMIS/v1.1/ and REST features from https://api-explorer.alfresco.com/api-explore after i did a full join to have a table with 2 columns CMIS AND REST
Context : i used an alfresco connector to connect bonita to Alfresco but nowaday bonita don't maintain the connector with new versions so i'm doing a benchmark to choose the best solution.
Best Regrds,
Saad.
Hi ,
On a very high level:
CMIS API are based out of specification and have a strong feature of interoperbility . It is based on OASIS standard - where the content services platform agree to support those minimal set of apis to be CMIS compliant.
http://docs.oasis-open.org/cmis/CMIS/v1.1/os/CMIS-v1.1-os.pdf
REST API's are specific to Alfresco and terms are people,sites etc like alfresco terms.
Alfresco Content Services REST API Explorer
But since CMIS is a minimal apis built for interoperability , it may not have all apis which can be used by client . So rest API's are there to use and accomplish.
Ask for and offer help to other Alfresco Content Services Users and members of the Alfresco team.
