Catalog overview
The catalog repository produces XML feeds consumed by Foundry Project.
Main outputs
| Feed | Used by |
|---|---|
Cache/OS/OperatingSystem.xml | Foundry Deploy and some Foundry OSD preparation paths |
Cache/DriverPack/DriverPack_Unified.xml | Foundry Deploy |
Cache/WinPE/WinPE_Unified.xml | Foundry OSD |
What the feeds support
- Operating system choices in Foundry Deploy.
- Driver pack choices in Foundry Deploy.
- WinPE asset preparation in Foundry OSD.
Why catalog is separate
Keeping catalog generation separate allows metadata to be refreshed independently from the UI applications.
The runtime consumes normalized XML outputs instead of hardcoding vendor-specific metadata.
Next step
Open Deployment Flow to see where catalog-backed choices appear.
