The canonical description is, "it's an object graph management and
persistence framework". It is not in and of itself an object store,
and persistence is only one of its functions -- in some respects the
less interesting one.
So it manages a graph of objects and stores them. You can't do the
second part without the first, and how often have you used Core Data
without persistence in mind?
You can in fact persistently store files without managing them as a
really nifty easy to use, well performing, bindings enabled, undo-
able object graph. Its called a filesystem. But most of us don't
think they're so nifty anymore*.
Also, it is quite attractive in some cases to use CoreData with only
an in memory store, which isn't persistent as far as CoreData is
concerned... and I'm guessing mmalc has some experience with this.
