The CDL Common Framework: Why It Matters

The CDL Common Framework is an open, services-oriented technical architecture that provides an integrating framework for services related to digital libraries.  As a layered architecture, it aims to separate front-end tools from back-end services and from underlying data storage so that different components can be reused in multiple applications, reducing the time and money it takes to develop and maintain code.
