Abstract

A method, system and computer program product for sharing resources among remote repositories. In a shared file system, a resource identifier and metadata are created for a resource, where the resource identifier is stored in a lock file in a shared volume accessible by the remote repositories. The lock file is then released in response to distributing the associated resource to the remote repositories. Alternatively, in a peer-to-peer system, a request is received to create, read, update or delete a resource stored in a content repository. A resource name, a resource version and/or a resource fingerprint are received in connection with the request to create, read, update or delete the resource in the content repository. A determination is then made as to whether the received resource name, resource version and/or resource fingerprint matches the respective resource name, resource version and/or resource fingerprint stored in a node graph for the resource.
