Standard Interactivity Application Deployment Planning

Standard interactivity applications do not allow users to select which columns to display in a view. They also do not support data-only user requests. All user requests require that the Siebel Server load page templates and rebuild each page for display. See also About High Interactivity and Standard Interactivity.

NOTE:  Siebel Open UI, a new user interface deployment option, is an alternative to the high interactivity client (for employee applications) or the standard interactivity client (for customer applications). Most of the information in this chapter pertains only to high interactivity or standard interactivity and has not been significantly updated. For more information about Siebel Open UI, see About Siebel Open UI.

To maximize system performance, set the number of columns of data displayed in each view to the minimum needed. Also, when creating or modifying Web page templates, keep template designs as simple as possible.

Standard interactivity applications can be run on several types of Web browsers. Test browser performance for all of the Siebel client types that you deploy. Investigate all of the browser settings that affect page display, cookie management, or page caching.

To reduce deployment administration costs, standardize on a browser for all users, where possible. Use the same browser types for development, testing, and production environments.

For detailed browser configuration information for standard interactivity, see Siebel System Administration Guide. For information about supported browser versions for standard interactivity, see the Certifications tab on My Oracle Support.
