Mediates between the domain and data mapping layers using a collection-like interface for accessing domain objects. by Edward Hieatt and Rob Mee
The Repository Pattern is a common construct to avoid duplication of data access logic throughout our application. The Repository pattern adds a separation layer between the data and domain layers of an application.
Why Use Repository Pattern :
- Increase test-ability and have a loose coupling to underlying persistence technology.
- Improve the code’s maintainability and readability by separating business logic from data or service access logic.
