Where are sources stored when they are saved in ICE but not compiled?

When sources are saved in the Avaloq Integrated Customization Environment (ICE) but not compiled, they are stored in a repository. A repository acts as a centralized storage system that allows for the management of various pieces of code, configurations, and other resources that are part of the development process. This is essential for maintaining organization and tracking changes, helping developers manage their source code before it is compiled into a runnable format.

The repository holds all versions of the source files, even those that are still in draft or uncompiled status, allowing easy access and modification. This contrasts with the notion of temporary cache, which typically would not store files permanently or serve as a reliable developer resource for ongoing work. Additionally, while an instance refers to a specific deployment of the Avaloq system and its environment, and an orderbook is related to transaction processing rather than source code storage, both do not pertain to the point of saving uncompiled sources in ICE.
