I have personal experience with EnterMedia, and reckon it would be the ideal solution for your needs. It is written in Java and is quite flexible and extensible. Just going via the groovy script and openedit interfaces, you can probably achieve most of your needs for customization. But, I am sure you can even avoid using OpenEdit if that falls outside your scope.

The reason I would recommend EnterMedia over Alfresco ?

  • EnterMedia is focused on digital accept management functions primarily (rather than as a bolt on to a DMS like Alfresco is) ..
  • You can get up and running much faster with Entermedia.
  • EnterMedia is a very flexible system you can customize even without writing code, or by writing or modify existing groovy scripts.

We are using Fedora Commons. It is a digital repository, which means that it does what you are asking, but is intended for long-term digital preservation and doesn't come with a front end that you would want general public to use.

We're currently working on a new project to use a Drupal module called "Islandora" which will turn Drupal into a dandy frontend. So far, so good. Your requirements may require no frontend or less of one, of course.
