Adobe LiveCycle Data Services ES2
Streamline RIA development with an optimized server framework
The Adobe® LiveCycle® Data Services ES2 module is a scalable and optimized framework that abstracts the complexity of creating easy-to-use, personalized, and interactive applications. It includes a rich set of features that streamline the development, integration, and deployment of rich Internet applications (RIAs). Make the most of your developer resources, shortening development time, reducing costs, and accelerating time to market.
HOW IT WORKS
LiveCycle Data Services ES2 provides the communication hub connecting both internal and external users to the required data sources to deliver data in real time to dynamic client RIAs.
Key capabilities
Develop applications based on modeling technology
With the introduction of the new Adobe application modeling technology, developers can write applications at a higher level, reducing development time and simplifying data integration. Adobe® LiveCycle® Data Services ES2 is deployed as a standard J2EE web application, so JavaT developers can leverage their existing business logic by enabling applications to publish and subscribe to JMS topics and queues and to integrate with existing EJB components. Backed by a powerful data management API and connectors, the module simplifies client-server data communication challenges from multiple sources, including collaborative content shared across clients in real time.
Help ensure high-performance messaging services and quality of service
LiveCycle Data Services ES2 is a high-performance J2EE server-based framework that enables a variety of real-time methodologies and protocols to suit your specific application requirements. The module optimizes your RIA client-server communication using Action Message Format (AMF) encoding, which brings considerable performance gains to your application. Developers can also configure multiple channels per connection, work around environmental constraints on the network or client, and safeguard against exhausting browser HTTP connections. To help ensure a high quality of service, real-time communication is further enhanced by providing guaranteed delivery of information to the client and the ability to reduce or increase the amount of data being streamed based on the speed of Adobe Flash® Player data processing.
Take advantage of open standards integration and tiered deployment
Integrate your application with your existing business logic and infrastructure using LiveCycle Data Services ES2 open adapter architecture to connect with Spring, JMS, Hibernate, EJB, and other data persistence mechanisms. Simplify deployment with support for portals compliant with JSR 168 and Web Services for Remote Portlets (WSRP). LiveCycle Data Services ES2 further simplifies application deployment by enabling tiered deployment inside and outside your firewall. The module includes an edge server that can be deployed in the DMZ and can provide more secure communications to a LiveCycle Data Services instance running behind the firewall to communicate with core enterprise applications.
