1.6 Terminology

The following terms and terminology is used within the documents to explain underlying processes, components, actions, actors etc.

	Term		Definition
	Business Service		A Business Service or a Transaction Service is a coarse grained component that delivers a particular service contract. The Service Interfaces and that make up the contract are each implemented by their particular Service Endpoints.
	POJO		A Plain Old Java Object (POJO) is exactly what it says. The term is used to differentiate these simple objects from more specific or complex types such as EJB classes.For example, when creating an EJB, a specific class must implement the Session Bean interface. However, that class will often delegate much of its functionality to one or more POJOs to aid maintainability and reuse of functionality.
	Service Implementation or Service Endpoint		A Service Implementation is a concrete implementation of a Service Interface.
	Service Interface		A Service Interface is a cohesive set of Service Methods that are grouped together in the anticipation that they will be commonly used together by a consumer. For example, the Service Interface for the Funds Transfer Service would contain a set of Service Methods that perform different types of immediate money transfer between two accounts.
	Service Method		A Service Method takes the form of a Java method implemented by the Service Implementation and the Service Delegate. The consumer of the service will invoke one or more Service Methods to help perform part of a business process.
	Extension Schema		The Extension Schema is a term used for the separate database schema as deployed by Oracle FLEXCUBE Direct Banking to allow IMPLEMENTERS to extend the Oracle FLEXCUBE Direct Banking application as per their needs.
