Resource Writer

Description

A Resource Writer stores a resource and produces a URI that can be used to retrieve the resource later. The resource URI uniquely locates and identifies the resource.  

Resource Writers know how to interact with an underlying data store and store the resource in its proper place. Each implementation can do this differently, thus providing flexibility in the data stores used to persist the resources.

Examples

The Catalog reference implementation currently does not include any Resource Writers out of the box.
