Object repositories in Standard or IXIA Dynamic Release Management (DRM)

Standard deployment

A standard deployment stores all objects in a single repository. You can work with the most current objects in a related map or access the versions of an object in the repository.

IXIA Dynamic Release Management (DRM) deployment

A DRM deployment uses a repository that is organized into release management collections. Think of it like a storage unit warehouse, where each product and release has its own room or subsection filled with only its related objects. Each collection falls into a Products or Libraries collection category, and each version within a collection is its own branch. Writers use collections to manage documentation for multiple products across multiple release cycles.

• Product collections contain objects that are unique to that specific collection
• Library collections contain objects specifically designated as a shared resource for inclusion in other collections
• Branch collections contain objects specific to a unique product collection and to a single user manual or release cycle. A single product collection can have multiple branches that share objects at the same time.
