Components

ActiveSpaces software consists of these primary components.

  • State Keeper executable binary file
  • Node executable binary file
  • Proxy executable binary file
  • API libraries
  • Administration tool executable binary file

In addition, the executable components of this product require a TIBCO FTL realm server to supply configuration data.

Communication among Components

The diagram shows the components of a data grid and their communication paths.

Programmers include API calls within application programs.

The API communicates with proxy processes to request database queries and operations.

Proxies communicate with node processes to execute database operations on behalf of application programs.

A state keeper process supplies critical information to node and proxy processes.

A TIBCO FTL realm server supplies data grid configuration definitions to all the preceding components.

Administrators use tibdg to define the data grid configuration, check the status of component processes, and manage those processes.
