Catalog Manager

The Catalog Manager is the content aggregator or warehouse. It manages all the content coming from the developer community. After the content is authorized, the Catalog Manager makes the content available to the Vending Managers. The Vending Managers then sell the content to their unique subscriber community.

The Catalog Manager supports any type of content. The Catalog Manager administrators define the type of content that they want to accept for their enterprise.

The Catalog Manager administrator manages these functions:

■Submitted and published content

■Supported mobile devices

■Content provider access and pricing

■Vending Manager access and content

■Administrator access

The following figure provides a high-level overview of the role of the Catalog Manager in the lifecycle of an application. It also illustrates the Catalog Manager processes.
