Application Server
The GNU Enterprise Application Server ('AppServer') is
the core of the n-tier variant of the GNU Enterprise system.
To the front end (be it GNUe Forms, GNUe Reports or any
other tool), it provides user-defineable business objects
with arbitary fields and methods. While transforming
access to those fields and methods into database
communication and calling of scripts, it cares about
stability, security, speed, and consistency.
Because it uses the GNUe
Common libraries,
it can use any back-end database server and RPC
(Remote Procedure Call) method that Common supports.
