HotRod is an implementation of the repository pattern, where the repository instances behave as ReadOnlyDictionaries (RODs). When a UnitOfWork is opened, they behave like regular Dictionaries so changes can be made and committed.

HotRod currently includes three different implementations:

1. A MemoryRepository, where the data is stored only in memory and not persisted.
2. A JsonFileRepository, where the data is persisted to a JSON text file, useful for debugging.
3. A LiteDbRepository, where the data is persisted to a LiteDb database.

HotRod implementations are available as Nuget packages:

• - HotRod - Contains: MemoryRepository, JsonFileRepository
• - HotRod.LiteDb - Contains: LiteDbRepository
