SOA repository

As a metadata repository, the SOA repository facilitates content validation and workflow support for the SOA. The repository is the medium of record for policies, processes, attributes and schemata related to SOA governance. In some publications and contexts, the repository and the registry are treated as a single entity called the "SOA registry-repository" or "SOA registry/repository."
