Zusammenfassung:Many telcos are planning projects that will ultimately marry intranet and extranet technology to existing operational database systems to reduce the costs of providing data and improve customer service. For relatively simple database applications, the user's desktop browser interacts with a Web server, which in turn accesses the database via a gateway to retrieve and/or update data. An alternative to creating gateways between the Web server and the database is to use Java applets as a client to a relational database management system database server via the new Java Database Connectivity API under development from Sun Microsystems. Within the next 6 to 12 months, companies will start to move from database-enabled intra/extranet systems to more sophisticated ones that offer production-level, on-line transaction processing capabilities. An OLTP system must have the ability to commit transaction in real time or roll them back without altering the state of the referenced data. A multi-tiered architecture with application servers handling transactional integrity is an effective solution for addressing this challenge.
