Oracle Tuxedo and Oracle Jolt

PeopleSoft uses Oracle Tuxedo, a middleware framework and transaction monitor, to manage transactions between the application server and the database. PeopleSoft also uses Oracle Jolt, a Java API and class library, to facilitate communication between Tuxedo running on the application server and the PeopleSoft software running on the web server. Tuxedo and Jolt are required elements of the PeopleSoft application server.

Note:

Tuxedo doesn’t actually perform processing on the application server; it schedules PeopleSoft server processes to perform the transactions.
