Oracle Network Computing Architecture
Tier 1: Client
There are two client components provided as part of the OVS system:
Oracle Video Client:
The
Oracle Video Client (OVC)
software allows you to
develop interactive, video-based multimedia applications for such uses as
computer-based training (CBT), interactive kiosks, corporate repositories, and Web
sites. The OVC software provides several tools to help you build and view client
video applications. For more information about the OVC, see the Oracle Video Client
Developer’s Guide.
Oracle Video Server Manager:
The
Oracle Video Server Manager (VSM)
is a Java
application that provides management-console client machines with point-and-
click control over OVS services, clients, and content. (VSM need not be installed on
every client machine.) For more information about the VSM, see Beyond the Basics
on page 1–20 of this document, and Getting Started with Oracle Video Server Manager.
Tier 2: Application Server
The Application Server tier consists of the
Oracle Video Server (OVS)
. The OVS
functions as the application server in this environment, receiving and processing
requests for digital video, then delivering the digital video content to the client
device.
