A case creation event originating from an external content repository is detected by a processor executing an inbound event handler of a distributed integration framework that integrates a case management system with the external content repository. The case creation event is configured by the distributed integration framework to cause creation of a case within the case management system. The inbound event handler instructs the case management system to create the case within the case management system. An outbound event handler of the distributed integration framework instructs the external content repository to create a proxy case to remotely represent the case created within the case management system.
