write to JCR from JSON data

I'm receiving JSON data from a service call programatically.

Now, I want to save/upload the JSON data to the JCR as a .txt file programatically. What is the best approach to achieve this ?

Appreciate your help. Thanks!

    Write a custom AEM service and then use JCR API to update the nodes. 

    Parse the values from JSON and then use API to update the nodes in the JCR -- for example: 

    //Store content from the client JSP in the JCR
       Node custNode = customerRoot.addNode("customer"+firstName+lastName+custId,"nt:unstructured"); 
                   
      //make sure name of node is unique
      custNode.setProperty("id", custId); 
      custNode.setProperty("firstName", firstName); 
      custNode.setProperty("lastName", lastName);

    This will point you in the correct direction.

      Thank Scott for the reply. I'm dealing with huge data so I think parsing the json and adding it in the repo takes down the performance. I was wondering if there is a way to have my response (from the service call) directly save in the JCR !!

      Check the links that Kautuk added. In the tools we have coded for AEM - we have always used the JCR/JCR SQL2 to do the job.
