I'm developing a PHP application that connects to an Alfresco instance for application content storage. Never having used Alfresco before, I'm looking for some good tutorials that explain the structure and organization of an Alfresco repository, i.e. how Nodes work, etc.
I haven't found much beyond the Alfresco Docs on the alfresco.com website, and while they do a good job explaining how to setup and configure an alfresco solution, they don't seem to talk as much about how the content repository is structured. A google search doesn't reveal much in the way of free online tutorials for Alfresco development.
Anyone know any good free tutorials for this, or will I have to end up finding a book written on the subject?
I'll humbly submit the set of Alfresco tutorials that I have written on my blog, ecmarchitect.com. They cover things like custom content models, custom actions, web scripts, behaviors, and workflows.
If you are using Alfresco 4, read the "2nd Edition" of the tutorials, where available. Those cover the most recent stuff.
Also, as you are developing a PHP app, you will be interested in the CMIS section of the "Custom Content Types" tutorial. Learn CMIS, then go grab the PHP API from the Apache Chemistry project. You can then use that to remotely perform CRUD functions against the repo from your PHP app.
Thay aren't that many good resources on the web.
But you can check out Alfresco blogs: http://www.alfresco.com/blogs/
Alfresco wiki is a good source: http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Main_Page
And this book (may be the best book for starting with Alfresco): http://www.wrox.com/WileyCDA/WroxTitle/Professional-Alfresco-Practical-Solutions-for-Enterprise-Content-Management.productCd-0470571047.html
Have fun with Alfresco! :)

I am really interested in learning "Adobe CQ" .
My question is what are all the technologies that I need to learn to understand adobe cq.
Any tutorials on Adobe CQ and related technologies are helpful.
Thank you,
Sri
As a developer you can start at http://dev.day.com. CQ is now called as AEM (Adobe Experience Manager).
Technology Stack which makes up CQ:
Sling - the MVC framework
(https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/SLING/Index)
JCR / Jackrabbit
OSGi
Google around this and you should be able to get a lot of resources.
Thanks
EDIT :
you can go through helpx adobe site, from where you can go through small example projects.
For example: Creating your first Adobe Experience Manager Touch UI component.
It tells you from scratch with step by step guidance and also has zip folder, which you can directly download and upload the package in the crx/de to see what is happening. :)
Go to the AEM community page - you will find lots of tutorials and how to articles:
http://helpx.adobe.com/marketing-cloud/experience-manager.html
This will be a big help when developing components-
Cq5 Widgets Api
I found the Adobe Gem Sessions very helpful
You can start here. I think this is the best place to start at. I am sharing the link for AEM 6.0. there are similar links for each verion of CQ.
http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0.html
There are 2 ways to start developing with Adobe AEM :
Use cqblueprints maven archetype
Native adobe maven archetype
Those 2 ways differ only in module structure, but used plugins are the same.
BTW: Adobe AEM 6.0 has migrated to Jackrabbit Oak-based CRX 3 repository introduction to OAK

Is there a module out there that would would sort of allow a user to run SQL queries and simple tables to a database directly from Drupal?
http://drupal.org/project/dba . But beware! you are opening a security hole: allowing random database-queries to be ran from your CMS is considerd a severe risk. If correctly configured, however, that hole is not exploitable, but a hole nonetheless :)
The tablewizard module will allow you to import an arbitraryt table. This cab then be sent to the views module for refining and display. Works very nicely.
Module Forena seems like a valid alternative to consider. For more details about Forena, 2 types of documentation are available:
Community documentation.
Documentation that comes with Forena, which you can access right after install and enable of the module. Checkout the demo site for an online example of the current:
Forena documentation - use the link 'Reporting documentation' or visit relative link /reports/help.
Forena samples - use the link 'Reporting samples' or visit relative link /reports/samples (these samples are fully functional, so make sure to experiment a bit with it, such as the drill downs available on the SVG Graph sample).
The newest 7.x-4.x version also includes an amazing (I think) UI for either creating your reports (the WYSIWYG report editor) and/or for creating your SQL queries (the Query Builder).
Disclosure: I'm a co-maintainer of this module,
I hope this does not violate the site's policy on self-promotion.

I am involved in a project with UI comprising mainly of Action Script.
My role as an ASP.NET programmer is to pull data from DB using Web Services and
supply it as XML to the Action Script.
It would help me immensely if I could learn more about XML Web Services in ASP.NET.
I searched for a new book in this topic but couldn't find any book completely dedicated to the topic.
I have found many books published at around 2002 or so.
I would like to know whether there is a good new book that would be handy for my project.
It would be better if they use 3.5 technologies like Linq to XML and all.
Thank you.
If you're only just starting to do web services in ASP.NET, I would strongly recommend you go and check out WCF. It's the current and future standard for communications between machines - web services and a lot more. The "old-style" ASMX web services are on their way out.
The book I always recommend to get up and running in WCF quickly is Learning WCF by Michele Leroux Bustamante. She covers all the necessary topics, and in a very understandable and approachable way. This will teach you everything - basics, intermediate topics, security, transaction control and so forth - that you need to know to write high quality, useful WCF services.

Also, I'd strongly recommend the Pluralsight series of WCF screen casts. I love books and they are great to read up on stuff - but sometimes, I find it easier to actually see someone show how to really code the thing and see it work and run. Highly recommended, 10-20 minute for each video, very informative and useful indeed!

I'm using ASP.NET on my current website and now I need to add some blogs to the site. I need at least 5 multiple blogs and I'm looking for a solution in ASP.NET.
I have been using WordPress before and was looking at Wordpress MU but as I'm running ASP.NET on this website it seems like a bad idea to combine these two. Also the blog is going to be in a subdirectory that I need to protect with ASP.NET so only logged in users can see the blog.
What is the best alternative for multiple blogs in ASP.NET? Or do you think I shall just use WordPress anyway?
Not the best answer:
But it is possible to adjust/extended the open source BlogEngine.net to handle multiple sites.
http://blogengine.codeplex.com/
That being said, it will take some work to make it support a "blog-network", but there are a bunch of developers out there that have done it, and there was an old project based off version 1.3 that handles multiple blogs.
Blogengine now has direct support for multiple blogs.
Is very fast and easy to use.
And it can work without a database if you prefer.
To understand how multiple blogs works and how to configure it look at Introducing Multiple Blogs in Single Instance for BlogEngine.NET
There's Community Server, which is the engine used by MSDN blogs. Back in the day CS used to be an open source ASP.NET showcase project, but it ended up being monetized. I don't know if they still have a free version.

I'm building a desktop application in Flex/AIR, and one of the current items on my TODO list is to develop a help system.
Throughout the GUI, there are little (?) buttons. When the user clicks one of those buttons, a HelpPanel appears, displaying some relevant information from the docs.
Simple enough.
But I'd really like to build a full-fledged help system, just like the ones normally deployed in desktop apps: a hierarchical table of contents, the ability to search for keywords, hyperlinking between help topics, etc.
Also, since my app will provide an API for plugin authors, I'd like to also provide hooks for third-party plugins to integrate their own documentation in with the core help system.
With my app, the user may not always be online, so all of the help data must be available locally (though it'd be very cool if new help content could be synchronized periodically from a server).
Building that kind of help system from scratch would be relatively straightforward, but it would also take a lot of time away from actually developing the core features of my application, so I'd rather use an off-the-shelf solution.
I've done a bit of googling, but can't find anything that fits the bill.
Any suggestions?
You might consider using the AIR html control to display html help files bound to links in your app, and built using any number of available tools for constructing HTML help screens.
If you design it using a conventional web server directory and file structure, there are plenty of tools for maintaining synchronized files.
This link references an AIR-based help system, and a possible interface to RoboHelp.
Here is a link to the RoboHelp "Packager".
