Figure 3‑2 Oracle Tuxedo CORBA EnvironmentThe Oracle Tuxedo system management interface, common to both Oracle Tuxedo CORBA and Oracle Tuxedo ATMI, can accommodate tools for both application development and administration. For information about the Oracle Tuxedo system management interface, see System Management Interface on page 2‑6.The Oracle Tuxedo CORBA server-side TP Framework component and client-side environmental objects enable programmers to use the deployment environment with a minimal amount of programming. For information about the TP Framework component, see Oracle Tuxedo TP Framework on page 3‑11. For information about client-side environmental objects, see Oracle Tuxedo CORBA Environmental Objects on page 3‑9.
Note: A Tuxedo application has the same meaning as a Tuxedo domain. For a definition of a Tuxedo domain, see Important Oracle Tuxedo Terms and Concepts on page 2‑1.Figure 3‑4 The ORB in a CORBA Client/Server Environment
• Greater security—keeps clients off the Oracle Tuxedo server machines
• Off loads CPU cycles and decreases process context switches on Oracle Tuxedo server machinesAn Oracle Tuxedo listening process, running on an Oracle Tuxedo server machine, that accepts connection requests from CORBA clients and assigns connections to an IIOP Handler also running on the server machine. It balances client connections across handlers. In addition, an IIOP Listener manages the pool of IIOP Handler processes, starting them in response to load demands.IIOP Listener/Handler Documentation
