Local Workspace

Local workspace is the name of the area on your computer's hard disk where Meridian Enterprise copies vault documents when you view or edit them in a workflow. Meridian also copies all referenced documents to your local workspace read-only. This process is similar to the way web browsers cache web pages, images, and other content to improve performance. Local workspaces especially improve the performance of working with large files and assemblies. Unlike with a web browser, however, you can edit documents in your local workspace and even add new documents. The key to this ability is synchronization.
