👉 Repository computing is a software design paradigm that focuses on managing and coordinating the execution of multiple applications or services as a single, cohesive unit through the use of a shared repository. This paradigm abstracts away the underlying infrastructure details, allowing applications to interact with a common data store and service catalog without needing to know the specifics of how that data is stored or processed. Repositories define interfaces for accessing and manipulating data, while service providers offer functionalities that can be invoked by applications. This abstraction simplifies development, enhances maintainability, and improves scalability by enabling the dynamic composition of application components from various sources. Repository computing supports both centralized and distributed models, where the repository can be a single server or a collection of servers, facilitating efficient resource sharing and load balancing across distributed environments.
