An accelerator is a compressed file that contains repository metadata files and other files in a directory structure. The directory structure depends on the type of accelerator. General accelerators contain rules, reference data objects, demonstration mappings, and demonstration data sources. Data Domain accelerators contain rules, reference data objects, data domains, and data domain groups.
