| # Contributing to CDO | |
| Thanks for your interest in this project. | |
| ## Project description | |
| The Eclipse CDO (Connected Data Objects) Model Repository is a distributed | |
| shared model framework for EMF models and meta models. CDO is also a model | |
| runtime environment with a focus on orthogonal aspects like model scalability, | |
| transactionality, persistence, distribution, queries and more. CDO has a 3-tier | |
| architecture supporting EMF-based client applications, featuring a central model | |
| repository server and leveraging different types of pluggable data storage | |
| back-ends like relational databases, object databases and file systems. The | |
| default client/server communication protocol is implemented with the Net4j | |
| Signalling Platform. | |
