Chapter 10: Accessing the Tuxedo Application
Every Tuxedo client we have developed so far was running on the same physical machine. But that is a rare occasion in practice. Most applications have a frontend either running on a desktop computer or web-based interfaces running in browsers. The backend Tuxedo application is running on a big server behind firewalls. The frontend and backend must communicate with each other. In this chapter, we will learn what Tuxedo offers to solve this task of accessing the application over the network. We will also see what we can create with a small effort by using Python's libraries.
In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:
- Using the Tuxedo Workstation client
- Exposing Tuxedo services as web services
By the end of this chapter, you will have learned how to access the backend Tuxedo application from a different frontend machine over the network. You will learn how to use the Tuxedo Workstation component to access...
