Artifact Repository

Saxbi Server stores all of its data (generally, things you create) in the Artifact Repository. All artifacts are just XML documents that have been given a unique ID and a little other metadata describing them. Using a general artifact system like this is designed to make database updates very painless, provide the ability to support much different functionality in the future without having to update the database, and other benefits. For example, it's possible to validate an artifact against an XML Schema in order to verify that it is well-formed.
