1.0 Demonstration

1.0 Demonstration
Requirement code Requirement # and requirement
N 1.0.000 The system can be tried via an online and/or on-site demonstration.
Response: The developers do not seem to host an online demo of Alfresco Community Edition.

1.1 Information technology

1.1.1 General IT

1.1.1 General IT
Requirement code Requirement # and requirement
I 1.1.100 The system operates with a traditional client-server architecture, with software installed on each machine that needs to access the system.
Response: Alfresco uses client-server technology, though the client is web-based. See 1.1.101.
Y 1.1.101 The system operates with a web-based interface, hosted on a server and accessed via a web browser on most any machine.
Response: Alfresco operates with a content application server[1], while users connect to it via web, mobile, and other types of clients. As Alfresco is integrated into the webLiMS suite of applications, the content application server is hosted in the cloud.
Y 1.1.102 The system contains a single, centralized database that supports multiple sites and departments.
Response: Alfresco's content repository "is comparable to a database, except that it holds more than data." The development team describes this further in their documentation:
The actual binary streams of the content are stored in files managed in the repository, although these files are for internal use only and do not reflect what you might see through the shared drive interfaces. The repository also holds the associations among content items, classifications, and the folder/file structure. The folder/file structure is maintained in the database and is not reflected in the internal file storage structure.[2]

Alfresco also allows users to set up "sites" for separate projects or user groups to manage custom content.[3]

Y 1.1.103 The system's database conforms to the Open Database Connectivity Standard (ODBC).
Response: Alfresco Community comes bundled with PostgreSQL, which has an associated ODBC driver. The software can also be run against MySQL.[4]
Y 1.1.104 The system is designed so upgrades to the back-end database do not require extensive reconfiguration or effectively cripple the system.
Response: Alfresco Community allows administrators to extend and override database properties through repository configuration files[4], presumably with little impact to the system.
Y 1.1.105 The system is designed to not be impacted by multiple users or failover processes.
Response: One of the guiding design principles of Alfresco Community is to be enterprise scalable.[5] This aspect was so important that the developers created a Scalability Blueprint.[6]
Y 1.1.106 The system applies security features to all system files.
Response: Alfresco Community system files, including configuration files, are only accessible to authorized administrators.
Y 1.1.107 The system applies log-in security to all servers and workstations accessing it.
Response: Users must provide a username and password before entering the system via web client. Administrators must also use a username and password to access server-side files. All of this accomplished through the authentication subsystem.[7]
Y 1.1.108 The system provides a workstation and server authentication mechanism.
Response: Alfresco Community employs an authentication subsystem to ensure authentication between client and server.[7]
U 1.1.109 The system applies Secured Socket Layer (SSL) encryption on the web client interface.
Response: Alfresco Community seems to be able to be used in HTTPS mode with some configuration, but it's not clear if it interfaces via HTTPS in default mode. Some documentation and forum posts suggest it's possible for the client to access the server via SSL.[8][9][10]
U 1.1.110 The system encrypts client passwords in a database, with support for multi-case and special characters.
Response: Alfresco Community does not seem to inherently include encryption capabilities, at least for repositories. The documentation for Community makes no mention of encryption on passwords. Several items seem to support the lack of encryption, though this matter needs to be researched further.[11][12]
Y 1.1.111 The system uses TCP/IP as its network transport.
Response: Data can be transferred between client and server via FTP and HTTP high-level application protocols (among others).
Y 1.1.112 The system allows automated backup and restore capability without support intervention, as well as manual backups.
Response: Alfresco Community allows for manual backup and restore by the administrator.[13] Further backup and recovery tools can be added with the Alfresco BART add-on.[14]
Y 1.1.113 The system maintains the transactional history of system administrators.
Response: An administrator's actions taken on records will be recorded just like any other user's actions. Other administrator actions like logging in and viewing audit logs seems to be tracked in the full log by default, but other actions like inviting users to a site or customizing a site dashboard are seemingly not logged. Those sorts of actions likely can be tracked as well in the audit log, but only with custom audit filters on the back end of the database.[15]

1.1.2 Hardware environment

1.1.2 Hardware environment
Requirement code Requirement # and requirement
Y 1.1.200 The system proves compatible with a variety of hardware environments.
Response: The developers state "Alfresco degrades gracefully on low powered hardware, and small installations can run well on any modern server." They also state the optimal hardware configuration.[16]
U 1.1.201 The system can be utilized with a touch-screen.
Response: Alfresco Community can normally be accessed via the Alfresco Mobile application for Android and iPhone.[17] It's not clear if webLiMS users will be able to access their cloud-hosted SDMS using the mobile app, however.

1.1.3 Software environment

1.1.3 Software environment
Requirement code Requirement # and requirement
Y 1.1.300 The system proves compatible with a variety of software environments.
Response: Alfresco Community installation packages exist for Windows, Mac, and Linux.[18]
Y 1.1.301 The system utilizes a non-proprietary database such as Oracle or Microsoft SQL Server.
Response: Alfresco Community comes bundled with PostgreSQL and can also be run against MySQL.[4]

1.2 Regulatory compliance and security

1.2.1 Regulatory compliance

1.2.1 Regulatory compliance
Requirement code Requirement # and requirement
Y 1.2.100 The system can generate accurate and complete copies of records in both a human-readable and original electronic format for review and copying.
Response: Alfresco Community remains "format-agnostic,"[19] meaning any file type can be uploaded. As long as the original file's MIME type allows for indexing, thumbnailing, metadata extraction, etc., the file will be human-readable while maintaining the original electronic format. Review and copy of the file is permission-based.[19]
U 1.2.101 The system supports 21 CFR Part 11 and EU Annex 11 requirements, including log-in security, settable automatic logouts, periodic requirements for mandatory password changes, limits on reusability of passwords, and full electronic signature.
Response: Alfresco Community seems to support many 21 CFR Part 11 requirements. The inherent lack of digital signatures, however, has been referenced on multiple occasions on the Alfresco site over the years.[20][21] Are the add-ons enough?[22] The same problem likely exists for EU Annex 11 requirements.
N 1.2.102 The system supports USP <232>/<233> requirements.
Response: Alfresco Community does not support these requirements.
U 1.2.103 The system supports GALP and/or GAMP standards.
Response: Alfresco Community seems to support some GxP requirements; however, it's not clear if all requirements are met. Users can add digital signatures to PDFs via an add-on, but it's not clear if other non-PDF records can be digitally signed, for example.[21]
Y 1.2.104 The system supports the U.S. DoD 5015.2 Standard.
Response: Through the Records Management module, the Records Management Site can be set up to be DoD 5015.2 Standard compliant.[23] However, only content placed within that site would seemingly be compliant.
Y 1.2.105 The system maintains date- and time-stamped audit trails of all data manipulation — such as changes to results, data analysis parameters, and methods — as consistent with all applicable regulations and standards, making the information available for review, copying, and reporting to authorized users.
Response: As long as content auditing is enabled via configuration, reportable audit trails will be captured.[15] The documentation states:
The audit log contains the entire history of an object since the point it was added to the File Plan, and can be useful for finding out about specific events that have occurred during an objects life cycle, and any users that have been involved. Every entry in the audit log is timestamped and where metadata has been changed, the original values and changed values are recorded.[24]
Y 1.2.106 The system audit log retains all data, prohibits any deletions, and allows user comments.
Response: As stated in 1.2.105, the entire history of an object is retained. Access to view, export, or file the audit trail as a a record is allowed if the administrator assigns the "Access Audit" permission.[25] A system's audit content appears safe from deletion. However, if an audit log is filed as a record, that filed record can be deleted by most unless its frozen. If the audit log is filed as a record, then those with access to that record can comment on it, though it doesn't appear system-based audit events can be commented on.
Y 1.2.107 The system maintains audit trails at least as long as the records to which they pertain.
Response: As stated in 1.2.105, the entire history of an object is retained. Additionally, disposition schedules allow associated metadata and an audit trail to remain even after deletion as long as "Maintain Record Metadata after Delete" is enabled during the creation of a disposition schedule.[26] Audit trails for held content are also maintained.[27]
Y 1.2.108 The system provides additional persistent auditing capabilities, such as the audit of cancelled uploads and scheduled system functions.
Response: The Audit Filter can be customized to include additional auditing of system and more complex user tasks.[15]
U 1.2.109 The system provides the ability to both automatically and manually add secure electronic signatures to documents and other data.
Response: See response in 1.2.101 and 1.2.103.
N 1.2.110 The system can automatically validate and approve data prior to being moved to the main database.
Response: The SDMS doesn't seem to inherently have automated data validation and approval tools. Users who file records will need to manually validate that metadata has been captured from the added record and mark the record as complete before it is filed.[28]

1.2.2 Security

1.2.2 Security
Requirement code Requirement # and requirement
Y 1.2.200 The system allows administrators and other authorized users to configure multiple levels of user rights and security by site location, department, group, role, and/or specific function.
Response: The SDMS allows for four types of roles out of the box, each with their own assigned permissions.[29] More flexible security roles and groups can be added by either setting up custom roles on a clean install[30] or installing security add-ons.[31]
U 1.2.201 The system allows administrators and users to reset user passwords.
Response: Alfresco Community doesn't seem to make it easy. An administrator can change the admin password[32], and users are allowed to reset their password in their dashboard[33] and with the addition of the Reset Password Dialog add-on.[34] But it's not clear if administrators can change user passwords without knowing the original user password.[35]
N 1.2.202 The system features and enforces adjustable rules concerning password complexity, reuse, and expiration.
Response: The software does not have this functionality by default. (A commercial add-on may provide this functionality.[36])
N 1.2.203 The system can lock a user out after a specified number of consecutive failed log-in attempts.
Response: The software does not have this functionality by default. (A commercial add-on may provide this functionality.[36])
N 1.2.204 The system provides the option for automatic user logout based on keyboard or mouse inactivity.
Response: The software doesn't appear to have this functionality.
Y 1.2.205 The system makes authority checks to ensure only authorized individuals can use the system to perform an operation.
Response: The system contains configurable authorization enforcement.[37]
Y 1.2.206 The system allows authorized users to modify records, while also maintaining an audit trail of such actions.
Response: Users can view, edit, delete, and download files.[38] As long as content auditing is enabled via configuration, reportable audit trails will be captured.[15]
Y 1.2.207 The system allows authorized users to manually delete records, while also maintaining an audit trail of such actions.
Response: Records can manually be deleted[39] while retaining an audit trail as long as auditing is enabled via configuration.[15] Records can also be deleted automatically as part of a disposition schedule in the Records Management module.[40] Associated metadata and an audit trail will remain as long as "Maintain Record Metadata after Delete" is enabled during the creation of a disposition schedule.[26]
N 1.2.208 The system prompts users to declare a reason for making changes to or deleting data in the system.
Response: The software doesn't appear to have this functionality.
Y 1.2.209 The system allows authorized users to generate a detailed user access record.
Response: As long as content auditing is enabled via configuration, authorized users can view reportable audit trails which include user access records.[15]
N 1.2.210 The system provides email notification of lockout, security access, and improper workstation access.
Response: The software doesn't appear to have this functionality.
N 1.2.211 The system provides a mechanism to allow a user read-only access to stored data.
Response: True read-only "preview" access is not available. An authorized user can freeze a record from changes; however, users can still download frozen records.[41]
Y 1.2.212 The system allows automatic and/or manual holds or locks to be placed on data to ensure it goes unaltered or remains retrievable during a retention period.
Response: Through the Records Management module, users can manually set up holds with user permissions and apply records or folders to the hold.[42]
U 1.2.213 The system can first feed data from connected non-CFR-compliant instruments through a virtual environment that is compliant (audit trailed, secure, versioned, etc.) before being stored.
Response: Not clear if information can be fed into webLiMS, be made complaint, and then stored in the SDMS.
N 1.2.214 The system can control whether users are able to export data to portable long-term storage media like a USB flash drive or recordable DVD.
Response: The software doesn't appear to have this functionality.
U 1.2.215 The system employs automatic file encryption on stored data.
Response: Alfresco Community does not seem to inherently include encryption capabilities, at least for repositories. Several items seem to support the lack of encryption, though this matter needs to be researched further.[11][12]

N 1.3.203 The system allows for the integration of additional printers and scanners both locally and externally.
Response: Alfresco Community does not inherently support printers. However, the interface is web-based, and an accessed file can be downloaded and printed to a local machine.[59]

1.3.3 Data capture

1.3.3 Data capture
Requirement code Requirement # and requirement
Y 1.3.300 The system can manage and store both sample- and non-sample-related data, including images from microscopes, GCMS scans of peaks, PDF files, spreadsheets, or even raw data files from instrument runs for later processing.
Response: Alfresco Community remains "format-agnostic,"[19] meaning any file type can be uploaded.
Y 1.3.301 The system can manage and store media objects like digital photos, bitmaps, movies, and audio files.
Response: Alfresco Community remains "format-agnostic,"[19] meaning any file type can be uploaded, including media files.
Y 1.3.302 The system allows multiple native instruments and users to enter data into the system simultaneously without disruption.
Response: One of the guiding design principles of Alfresco Community is to be enterprise scalable, with as few disruptions as possible.[5] Note that instruments can't be connected directly to the SDMS; however, instruments can be interfaced to the SDMS through the LabVia webLiMS application.
U 1.3.303 The system can interface with and import existing data from other databases and file shares.
Response: Complete folder-based file structures can be imported into Alfresco Community using a number of methods.[51] It's assumed webLiMS users can also move files from other webLiMS applications to the SDMS, but this needs to be confirmed.
N 1.3.304 The system supports data capture from a Citrix-based environment.
Response: Aside from capturing metadata data from imported files of a sufficient MIME type, Alfresco Community doesn't seem to offer data capture capabilities. However, other webLiMS applications can capture instrument and other data, and that data can then be managed and stored in the SDMS.
Y 1.3.305 The system allows file indexes to be stored centrally while associated files are stored geographically.
Response: Alfresco Community uses Solr for indexing, and it has "no need to duplicate indexes on every machine in a cluster," suggesting indexes could be stored on a central machine.[60]
N 1.3.306 The system allows users to organize captured data by project, date, location, instrument, etc.
Response: Aside from capturing metadata data from imported files of a sufficient MIME type, Alfresco Community doesn't seem to offer data capture capabilities. However, users can import files and organize them into folders based on specific criteria.
N 1.3.307 The system can route captured data based upon specified metadata tags.
Response: Alfresco Community doesn't seem to offer data capture capabilities. Imported files will have metadata captured if it's of a certain MIME type; however, those files aren't able to be routed into specific repository folders based on metadata information.
N 1.3.308 The system allows full on-screen review and approval of native instrument data prior to database commitment.
Response: Alfresco Community can not interface with instruments and does not have this functionality. However, optional middleware could add this functionality.
N 1.3.309 The system keeps all captured data and its format intact and captures modifications of that data as a version, including date and time of those modifications, for regulatory purposes.
Response: Alfresco Community doesn't seem to offer data capture capabilities. However, files imported into the SDMS will retain their format, and an audit trail will keep track of all changes to it for regulatory purposes.[24]
N 1.3.310 The system has a tool that allows users to capture data printed to it as a searchable PDF file.
Response: Alfresco Community doesn't seem to offer data capture capabilities. Using the standard transform options of the software, users can convert some files formats to a searchable PDF format.[61]
N 1.3.311 The system can automatically normalize and store incoming data to a technology-neutral format like XML.
Response: Alfresco Community does allow certain text-based formats like RTF, PDF, DOC, etc. to be converted to XML via transform tools[61], but it doesn't seem to be a process that can be automated without revisions to the software.
N 1.3.312 The system allows incoming and entered files to be converted into other open formats like JCAMP-DX, TraML, mzML, mzXML, AnIML, pepXML, and protXML.
Response: Alfresco Community does not seem to support conversion of files to these formats.[61]
N 1.3.313 The system can capture and store native instrument and processed data based on a scheduled time or a real-time event, such as upon file creation.

Y 1.3.314 The system allows users to manually upload instrument data files that are not part of a scheduled upload.
Response: Alfresco Community remains "format-agnostic,"[19] meaning any file type can be uploaded. As long as the instrument data files are moved off the instrument to a media that can be accessed by the software, those files can then be imported into the SDMS.
Y 1.3.315 The system allows for the specification of a retention period for captured native instrument and processed data and can enact it based on date-based metadata fields or a future event.
Response: Alfresco Community doesn't seem to offer data capture capabilities. However, through the Records Management module, users can manually set up retention periods on imported files via holds with user permissions and apply records or folders to the hold.[42]
N 1.3.316 The system can remove data from client machines upon upload and/or backup, based on a schedule or retention policy.
Response: This functionality does not appear to be included in the SDMS.
U 1.3.317 The system allows users to review, restore, and reprocess original native instrument data on the original instrument acquisition software.
Response: The system can not directly interface with instruments. However, users may be able to download a native instrument data file from Alfresco to their machine and then upload that file to the original instrument again via webLiMS' LabVia. This should be confirmed.
N 1.3.318 The system allows users to open and view captured native instrument files without restoring them.
Response: Unless the native instrument file in the Alfresco Community repository has a supported file type, it will not be able to be opened or viewed in the Alfresco UI. You can always attempt to download it from the repository to your machine and open/view it from there.
N 1.3.319 The system allows captured processed data to be reused by other applications without having to reprocess it.
Response: Alfresco Community doesn't seem to offer data capture and processing capabilities.
