The NSDL Data Repository (NDR) stores digital objects, such as resources, metadata and agents, as well as contextual information about the resources, including relationships among resources and bibliographic metadata, and exposes the repository contents through a set of web-services.
The NDR uses open source Fedora Commons repository software to model and manage digital objects such as resources, metadata, and agents. Fedora Commons provides digital object and repository administrative functions as well as flexible, extensible views of the repository and its digital objects via web services. NDR objects are maintained through an application programming interface (API) that allows controlled access to the objects within the repository. NDR API methods are invoked using REST requests.
