Interior Server

Overview

Interior Server is the server on which BusinessConnect™ Container Edition is installed on top of the other required TIBCO software products. Multiple Interior Servers can work as a cluster to achieve load balancing and fault tolerance. This server is located inside the company’s firewall and performs the following tasks:

• Handles all messaging level activities, such as message packaging and unpacking, encryption and decryption, signature and verification, and so on, according to numerous transport and vertical business standards.
• Takes care of business level logic to be executed by each individual protocol, such as document schema validation, business level acknowledgment generation, and so on.
• Communicates with Gateway Server and Poller Server using TIBCO Enterprise Message Service message bus for Inbound messages.
• It also communicates with AuditSafe server using REST APIs to post audit logs.
