Welcome back!

In my previous article, I outlined the different mechanisms in WCS for plugging your own ad-hoc logic into the asset save processing flow.

Before diving into the subject at hand, here are a couple of things we are NOT going to resolve in this article:

For local developer environments in the previous version of WebCenter Sites, 11g, developers had use of a Jump Start Kit (JSK) that was relatively lean and self-contained. The footprint of the JSK, while not trivial, was roughly the same as a small-ish virtual machine. With the latest release of WCS 12c (12.2.1) a JSK does not currently exist, and as a developer testing integration, or building functional pieces currently requires a complete install of Sites.
