Apache Cocoon web application framework

Apache Cocoon is a free open source web application framework built around the concepts of pipeline, separation of concerns and component-based web development.

The framework focuses on XML and XSLT publishing and is built using the Java programming language. The flexibility afforded by relying heavily on XML allows rapid content publishing in a variety of formats including HTML, PDF, and WML.

The content management systems Apache Lenya and Daisy have been created on top of the framework. Cocoon is also commonly used as a data warehousing ETL (extract, transform, load) tool or as middleware for transporting data between systems.
