#summary Overview of Models in the SoC framework
#labels Phase-Design,Contents-Skeleton

Entities of common [ModelsOverview Models] provided by the
[SoCOverview SoC framework] are stored in the
[http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/datastore/ Google App Engine Datastore].
Sharing the Models between different [MelangeIntro Melange] web
applications not only promotes code reuse, it also permits similar
real-world programs to import and export entities (such as
previously-participating contributors or organizations) amongst
their web applications.  This data portability reduces the setup
effort to the Sponsor organization when starting a new program or
repeating a previous program.
[ModelViewController#Models Models are part of the Model-View-Controller pattern].
