Zones and Repositories

Overview

The purpose of this section is to explain the concept of Zones and Repositories and how these objects interact to facilitate a flexible storage solution in TapeTrack.

For illustration purposes, rather than discussing a vault we will use the analogy of a restaurant.

Our Restaurant

Our restaurant is called GazillaBytes, and it has 5 rooms. Each of our rooms is named after a color.

We have:

  1. The Red Room which has seating for 200 people in a configuration of 20 tables each with 10 seats.
  2. The Blue Room which has seating for 200 people in a configuration of 20 tables each with 10 seats.
  3. The Green Room which has seating for 200 people in a configuration of 20 tables each with 10 seats.
