IBM FileNet Content Manager 5.2.1 Content Engine Bulk Import Tool (CEBIT) Performance, Tuning, and Best Practices

White Papers


Abstract

The IBM Content Platform Engine Bulk Import Tool (CEBIT) provides a highly configurable and flexible way to import large volumes of documents into IBM FileNet Content Platform Engine (CPE). CEBIT monitors file system folders for content to be assembled as documents. It then assigns metadata and indexing information to those documents and imports them into the CPE object store in batches.

This paper presents the ingestion performance and scalability characteristics of CEBIT as tested in the IBM Performance lab with POWER8 servers and XIV storage. It also provides tuning and monitoring recommendations to help achieve best performance in customer environments based on specific settings such as document size, batch size, and number of threads.
