+1 NASA's Common Metadata Repository is worth exploring too https://github.com/nasa/Common-Metadata-Repository It is a neat example of how an org can structure and manage multiple projects and services in a single git repository. They've use Leiningen to achieve their objective. > The Common Metadata Repository (CMR) is an earth science metadata repository for NASA EOSDIS data. The CMR Search API provides access to this metadata. > Building and Running the CMR > The CMR is a system consisting of many services. The services can run individually or in a single process. Running in a single process makes local development easier because it avoids having to start many different processes. The sections below contain instructions for running the CMR as a single process or as many processes. (edit: add relevant context for quick reference)
