Technical Architecture
Future Ready ebizframe uses Oracle database and tools for the ERP and for the Corporate Portal, Java and related technologies are used. ebizframe is based on threetier architecture. This is different from the traditional client/server architecture in the way that the application instead of residing on the client resides on the middletier i.e. the Application Server. This enables a user to access the application from the clientend, using just a web browser. This means tremendous reductions in the maintenance costs and hassles, as the software changes and upgrades are only to be done on the server. This makes it is very easy to manage the software especially across multiple locations. Also ebizframe does not require any expensive tools to manage the middle-tier. The 3-tier architecture makes the solution scalable and expandable and you can grow to hundreds of users on the same architecture with smaller investments. ebizframe is completely web enabled and you do not need to procure any third party remote access software to make ebizframe web enabled. ebizframe is OS independent and supports leading Operating Systems of the world like Windows, Linux and Solaris. ebizframe s 3 Tier Architecture The three tiers of ebizframe s architecture are as follows: Presentation tier (or user interface) This tier interfaces with the user and consists of hardware such as a PC or workstation and a web browser. This may consist of any number of client machines. Functionality /Business Logic tier This tier provides functionality to the end users and contains the business logic (application). It provides the bridge between the fi rst and the third tiers. Depending upon the number of hits and the number of users, any number of application servers can be put in this tier. This ensures easy expandability. Data tier This tier includes the database that contains all the data of the organization and this is encapsulated from the end users. Any number of database servers can be put in this tier, depending on the volume of transactions and the amount of data. This three-tier architecture can work on the Intranet as well as over the Internet. Advantages of ebizframe s three-tier architecture Web-enabled- 3-tier architecture allows web-enability. So the application can be deployed over the internet as well; and can be accessed from any PC having a browser. Thin clients - The application/business logic resides on the middle tier and thin clients can be used which just have a web browser installed on it. You don t need to replace your existing low end machines and when buying new machines you can buy low end machines instead of wasting money on high-end machines. Easy database migration - Database restructuring, upgrades migration or other changes can be performed without substantially affecting the client programs. Easy Scalability - Scalability is much easier in 3-tier architecture. This means to accommodate more client machines in future, we can just increase the number of application servers, instead of replacing the entire server with a higher confi guration server. Easy Interfacing - Connectivity to other systems/ applications is easily possible since the entire business logic resides on a central machine. Platform Independence - The client machines can be on different platforms. So it is not required to have a platform specifi c version of software at every client. Ease of Implementation of customizations - Implementation of customizations is much easier as it is not required to be done at each client machine. Updation is only required to be done at the Application server level. So the future customizations can also be very easily carried out. Easy Upgradability - It also allows easier upgradations to newer versions of the product. Easy maintainability - As the software changes and upgrades are only to be done on the server, it means you do not have to do any change in the user machines. This means tremendous reductions in the maintenance costs and hassles, especially in cases of a geographically distributed User base.
