  • Publication number: 20070168203
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for a content repository mapping method. In one embodiment, the method can include obtaining a context to a transaction and selecting a content repository from among a set of content repositories based upon the obtained context. Each of the content repositories can conform to a uniform data structure, but can have differing values for selected fields of the data structure. As such, the method can include mapping the selected content repository for data access during the transaction. For example, mapping the selected content repository for data access during the transaction can include setting the selected content repository as a data source for data access logic in the application.
