iSeries Architecture: Fundamental Strength of the iSeries
20
iSeries Handbook
Java is the environment of choice for programming in today's network computing
environment. It allows true portability of applications between platforms without modification
or recompilation. The iSeries servers are uniquely positioned to leverage Java as it evolves
from its current Web focus to a full commercial application environment. The strengths of the
iSeries server will be combined with Java's object-oriented, network computing technology to
provide solutions in the new millennium.
See “Java for iSeries (5722-JC1 and 5722-JV1)” on page 602 for more information.
Web Serving
An iSeries server can access a vast network of computers as if they are a single entity.
Everyone and everything can access and distribute information, applications, and services
provided by the network. For Web serving with the iSeries servers, network computing is
supported with HTTP Server for iSeries and HTTP Server Powered by Apache for iSeries.
HTTP servers are the core foundation of technology at the heart of all e-business
applications. They handle the communication with the client (typically browsers or
XML-rendering devices such as palm pilots) and provide the entry point into server
resources. These resources can range from simple HTML and GIF files, to e-business and
e-commerce applications, all the way to full-blown business-to-business, collaborative
enterprises.
iSeries HTTP support includes the Apache HTTP server. Apache, a freeware HTTP server, is
open-source software that implements the industry standard HTTP/1.1 protocol with a focus
on being highly configure capable and easily extendable. See “HTTP Server for iSeries
(5722-DG1)” on page 506 and “HTTP Server for iSeries (5722-DG1)” on page 506.
OS/400 contains a complete set of base products and features that can be used to create a
Web presence. Included are TCP/IP, Java, Virtual Private Networking, Cryptographic
Services, Secure Socket Layer, Certificate Management, HTTP Server, Apache Server, and
many more. The WebSphere family of products offered by IBM for the iSeries server allows
you to build a complete e-business Web Site that is secure, easy to develop and maintain,
and scale based on your needs.
See “WebSphere and e-business” on page 567 and “WebSphere Development Studio for
iSeries (5722-WDS)” on page 611 for more information.
Lotus Domino
Domino for AS/400 is the leading groupware solution available for the iSeries server. It
provides unparalleled capability for iSeries customers to use their business data in
collaborative e-business solutions, both within their organizations and with their partners over
