Application Server

Definition: Application Server ABB is a Technology Service that implements the behaviour of system software that resides between the operating system (OS) on one side, the external resources (such as a database management system [DBMS], communications and Internet services) on another side and the users’ applications on the third side.

ABB name: eira:ApplicationServerTechnologyService

Example: The following implementation is an example on how this specific Architecture Building Block (ABB) can be instantiated as a Solution Building Block (SBB): DIGIT/C Hosting Service - DIGIT/C offers a high availability and high performance hosting infrastructure that is being comprised, among other elements, of back-end web server instances and application servers for hosting and serving both static and dynamic sites. http://ec.europa.eu/ipg/build/infrastructure/index_en.htm

Interoperability Saliency: Application Server ABB is salient for semantic and technical interoperability because it implements the mechanism to expose access to applications using metadata. This exposition of application contributes to the integration of legacy systems and siloed information to expose to the different public service consumers.
