9.2 Oracle Jolt Components

Oracle Jolt consists of the following components for enabling secure, reliable access to servers inside corporate firewalls, and for creating Java-based client programs that access Tuxedo ATMI services:

• Jolt Server Listener
• Jolt Server Handler
• Metadata Repository Server
• Metadata Repository
• Jolt Internet Relay
• Jolt Class Library
• JoltBeans

As shown in the following figure, the Jolt server implementation consists of one or more Jolt Server Handlers, one or more Jolt Server Listeners, and one and only one Metadata Repository Server, all running on the same Oracle Tuxedo server machine.

Figure 9-2 Oracle Jolt Server Implementation

A Jolt server listens for network connections from Jolt clients, translates Jolt messages, multiplexes multiple Jolt clients into a single process, and submits and retrieves requests to and from a Tuxedo ATMI application. As with all Tuxedo system executables, the Jolt server components reside in the tux_prod_dir/bin directory, where tux_prod_dir represents the directory in which the Oracle Tuxedo 22c Release 1 (22.1.0.0.0) Oracle distribution is installed.
