How to install and setup hybris opencommerce framework?

I need the hybris-commerce-suite-5.0.4.0.zip(API) and install setup of the framework.I need to understand hybris how is it made.Also help me with other java ecommerce supported frameworks made over spring.
Most people learn hybris by starting with the hybris Core Trail (https://help.hybris.com/6.0.0/hcd/d5582c7cd2d5443891003ed071b26193.html).
The hybris Core Trail is a set of exercises that will teach you about the Hybris core functionality. The Core Trail is the most fundamental trail you'll find in the selection of trails(i.e., Core, Commerce, Promotion Engine Trail); if you don't know where to start - start at the Core Trail.
The aim of those technical trails is to provide Hybris trainees with a tutorial trail covering the main themes and best-practices of the hybris core platform.
The material can be used both in a training course and at home for self-study.
The zipped source code is based on Hybris' Cuppy and CuppyTrail Extensions, which can be downloaded from here:
cuppy.zip (https://help.hybris.com/6.0.0/downloads/Trails/Core/cuppy.zip)
If you want the complete source code of the final solution, you can get it here:
cuppytrail.zip (https://help.hybris.com/6.0.0/downloads/Trails/Core/cuppytrail.zip)
cuppytrailhmc.zip (https://help.hybris.com/6.0.0/downloads/Trails/Core/cuppytrailhmc.zip)
cuppytrailfrontend.zip (https://help.hybris.com/6.0.0/downloads/Trails/Core/cuppytrailfrontend.zip)
cuppytrailcockpit.zip (https://help.hybris.com/6.0.0/downloads/Trails/Core/cuppytrailcockpit.zip)
cuppytrailbackoffice.zip (https://help.hybris.com/6.0.0/downloads/Trails/Core/cuppytrailbackoffice.zip)
Here is a high level of the steps in the Core Trail:
Tasks
Installing Java
Installing Eclipse
Setting up the Eclipse Workspace and Installing Hybris
Download Hybris Platform Binaries
Build from Console
Import into Eclipse
Preparing Eclipse's Ant View
Debugging from Eclipse
Running Hybris
Start the Server
Initialize the System using Hybris Admin Console (HAC)
Explore Hybris
Adding cuppy
Download the Cuppy Extension
Resulting Folder Structure
Tell Hybris about the Cuppy extension
Rebuild the System
Update the System
Required/Helpful Reading
Summary
Since you have a Hybris license you can get the download from the hybris wiki. However, 5.0 is an outdated release, you should not use that.
The best way to dive into hybris is, as commented by Shreshtt Bhatt, to follow the trails in the wiki.

Liferay Portal CE and EE

Our company is developing e-portal solutions for the government in Vietnam. We are using Liferay Community Edition. We are considering switching to Enterprise Edition.
From a programmer's perspective, is there something LP EE can do that LP CE cannot (performance, security, functionality, etc.)? We would like to hear from the experiences of programmers who have worked with both LP CE and EE before.
Thank you so much.

In addition to what the others already mentioned, Liferay EE is supported for ~5 years after release, while you won't get upgrades for major CE versions once the next release is out - so you need to upgrade less often. Support includes patches for problems that you discover (on a service level) as well as cumulative fixpacks, typically more often than on CE.
For clustering - especially for bigger clusters - there are some additional clustering options in EE that optimize the cluster communication in order to scale better.
Liferay Sync can synchronize multiple document libraries on EE, compared to a single document library in CE
Liferay Developer Studio, the commercial extension of eclipse, works with more application servers - especially the "big iron" servers while the CE/Open Source version Liferay IDE works with the open source appservers/servletcontainers.
Plus, you're supporting further development of the product directly.
That being said, however you decide, please get involved in the Liferay community and help to make the product even better
That is no prommical question, but I can say that EE get early bugfixes and EE is altogether robustly that CE.
Also, Liferay Portal EE has access to EE only marketplace applications, such as:
Kaleo Workflow Designer
Kaleo Workflow Forms
Auditing portlet
Reporting portlet
There may be more EE only applications but that is all I can think of right now.

Did anybody run the sample code of Liferay Portal Systems Development(2012) successfully on liferay 6.1?

I'm learning Liferay Portal Systems Development 2012 by Jonas X. Yuan. I tried to run sample code knowledge-base-portlet of chapter 3, but so many errors show up, like social-equity doesn't exist, viewJSP is not defined in java file etc., did anybody run it successfully on liferay 6.1.1? thanks
Not sure if he's using Liferay's standard knowledgebase plugin that you can find on the marketplace (source is available there or on github). It seems that the book is for 6.0 (couldn't find the information on the website, but it's released in January 2012), and it seems that knowledgebase is accessing deprecated APIs. Social Equity in Liferay 6.0 is called Social Activity in Liferay 6.1.

Where is WCF Data Services in Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web

I watched EF4.1 and n-tier application video for Julie Lerman,
she added a new ASP.NET Empty Web Application project in the solution (VS 2010). After that she added a new item, WCF Data Service.
I can not find this item in Visual Studio Express 2012 for Web. Could you please help me? Is this a limitation in the express 2012 version?
Here is an image of what I can see in the Add New Item form
I can't post answer my question, so:
I should intall "WCF Data Services 5.2 RTM Tools Installer"
More details on WCF Data services blog.
Thank you.
Yes, you need to install "WCF Data Services 5.2 RTM tools installer". For the VS pro and ultimate versions, we chain in the installer for "WCF data Services - 5.0". For the express editions, customers need to install the version they need.
One thing to note - even in Pro/Ultimate editions, the version that gets installed is 5.0. For newer features (like the new JSON format), customers will require to install the latest bits so that they can get all the new code generation features.
Thanks

Versioning a SharePoint feature

Is there a best practice for versioning SharePoint features?
Our SharePoint product gets a release every 3-6 months, and we need a way of clearly differentiating between the new version and the old version. We also need to support simultaneous installations of the new and old feature so that clients may test the new stuff before deploying it.
Versioning Features is not supported in Sharepoint 2007. In Sharepoint 2010 you can Version Features like you normally would version assemblies.
See the following post for more details: Feature Versioning and Upgrades in SharePoint 2010
Here is a excellent webcast by Jeremy Thake on feature versiong and upgrade :
http://sharepointdevwiki.com/display/SPPodCasts/2010/06/22/SPWebCast+019+-+Deep+dive+into+feature+versioning+and+upgrade+support+in+SharePoint+2010
Check out chapters 8 and 9 of our free SharePoint development guidelines. We have been using this strategy successfully for the last few years in both SP2007 and SP2010.
