Alfresco Versioning (Behind the scenes)

Alfresco Versioning allows you to track content history. When an Alfresco content node is versionable (has the versionable aspect), the version history is started. The first version of the content is the content that exists at the time of versioning.

Nodes that have the cm:versionable aspect are known as versionable nodes and they contain references on multiple contentStores (version2Store and spacesStore).

Alfresco Repository Caches Unfolded

Alfresco repository Caches optimisation can have significant impact on the performance of your Alfresco deployment. This post provides an overview on how the repository caches are implemented by Alfresco.

The Alfresco repository leverages and provides in-memory caches.   Memory caching (often simply referred to as caching) is a technique in which computer applications temporarily store data in a computer’s main memory (i.e., random access memory, or RAM) to enable fast retrievals of that data.
