Chapter 1 Introduction : Overview

Overview
TIBCO PartnerExpress provides a secure web-based access for trading partners, so that external users associated with these trading partners can log on and perform simple file uploads and downloads.
By using TIBCO PartnerExpress clients, external users can connect to the host site running the TIBCO PartnerExpress Server.
TIBCO PartnerExpress software has two components:
It is located on the TIBCO BusinessConnect Gateway Server, which can also hold other servers, such as HTTP servers and FTP servers.
It provides a browser interface for external users of trading partners.
No software installation is required on the web client.
TIBCO PartnerExpress does not require a specific protocol.
This product has the following features:
PartnerExpress clients communicate with the PartnerExpress server by exchanging documents over HTTPS. Support for this industry standard means that the software can be implemented easily by using existing technology infrastructure.
After all components are installed and configured on the PartnerExpress server side, PartnerExpress clients can be added easily. Because only a web browser is required to conduct transactions, the PartnerExpress client setup is minimal.
