Master Index Server Project Connectivity Components

The master index server project can include the following connectivity components:

• Connectivity Map - Graphically describes the relationship between the web application components and the master index application components.

• Application file - Contains the logic used by the master index application to process data into and out of the master index database. This file is automatically created when you generate the master index project.

• Web application file - Contains the logic used by the Enterprise Data Manager (EDM) to process data and access the master index logic and database. This file is automatically created when you generate the master index project.

• Oracle Adapter or SQL Server Adapter - Provides connectivity to the master index database. These components are optional since you can define the database connection pool through the Sun Java System Application Server.

• JMS Topic - A message destination conforming to the publish-and-subscribe (pub/sub) messaging paradigm. In this case, the master index application publishes to the Topic to broadcast messages to external systems. Note that master index applications publish to Topics, not to Queues. This component is optional.
