The Model Repository Service is an application service that manages the Model repository. The Model repository stores metadata created by Informatica clients and application services in a relational database to enable collaboration among the clients and services.
When you access a Model repository object from an Informatica client tool or application service, the client or service sends a request to the Model Repository Service. The Model Repository Service process fetches, inserts, and updates the metadata in the Model repository database tables.
