Profile Repository

• ATG applications use profile repositories to manage user profiles.
• A standard profile repository is a SQL repository component of class atg.adapter.gsa.GSARepository. 
• Each user profile is represented by an item in the profile repository, and the attributes that make up the profile are stored as properties of the repository item. A profile repository definition is a list of all the profile properties that you want to track for users. For example, you can define a profile repository to track the first name, last name, and address for site members. 
• The standard profile repository definition is located in the configuration path at /atg/userprofiling/userProfile.xml.
