Process of Setting Up a Repository

Every repository contains a Physical layer, a Business Model and Mapping layer, and a Presentation layer. You can work on each layer at any stage in creating a repository. However, your first task is to thoroughly understand your business model. You have to understand what business model you want to build before you can determine what the physical layer needs to have in it. After analyzing your business model needs, you can begin to create a repository. The usual order is to create the Physical layer first, the Business Model and Mapping layer next, and the Presentation layer last. You can set up security when you are ready to begin testing the repository.

Table 5 lists the tasks to set up a repository and the page number where each task is described.
