About the Siebel Server

The Siebel Server is the middle-tier platform that supports both back-end and interactive processes for every Siebel client. These processes are components within the Siebel Server architecture and support functions like the following:

  • Operation of business logic for Siebel Web clients, as well as connectivity and access to the Siebel database and Siebel File System

  • Mobile Web Client synchronization

  • Integration with legacy or third-party data

  • Automatic assignment of new accounts, opportunities, service requests, and other records

  • Workflow management

The Siebel Server supports both multiprocess and multithreaded components, and can operate components in background, batch, and interactive modes. Many of the Siebel Server components can operate on multiple Siebel Servers simultaneously to support an increased number of users or larger batch workloads. For more information about Siebel Server components, see About Siebel Server Components.

Note: Make sure that your server hardware and software meet minimum standards. For more information, see the Certifications tab on My Oracle Support.
