In this article, the authors take a close look at the JSR, what it has to offer and what’s in it for the developer,  the CIO,  the systems integrator, the web editor and the vendor.

Quote:

"JSR-170 promises the Java world, and possibly beyond, a unified API that allows accessing any compliant repository in a vendor- or implementation-neutral fashion, leading to the kind of clean separation of concerns that characterizes modern IT architectures. Some people call JSR-170 the "JDBC of Content Repositories."

"The JSR-170 API defines how an application and a content repository interact with respect to a number of content services."
