Hi,
We are preparing to setup our environment to accept a application that will utilize Business Objects. We have been told that the application will use both the Java SDK and Web Services. In our infrastructure we will be installing tomcat on a different severs than CMS. We will be using an F5 load balancer to distribute the load between the Tomcat web servers and clustering our CMS servers. We need to ensure all protocols are secured but we aren't clear on the communication paths. We know that the webs services over SOAP/HTTP(s) are routed through the Tomcat web servers but aren't clear on how the Java SDK calls are routed from the application
a couple questions.
1) When using the Java SDK will the communications be routed through the Tomcat Web Servers then to CMS or does the application using the SDK connect directly to the CMS cluster?
2) does the Java SDK use CORBA as the communication protocol?
2) Are all communications between the Tomcat Web Servers and the CMS services over CORBA?
Dell requested I begin a new thread for this question.
Thanks in Advance
