KABIRA
A) Fault tolerant runtime engine
The Kabira Infrastructure Switchis the central host for all Kabira applications. It is a high performance software transaction-switch that provides the infrastructure for building and integrating applications, integrating networks, and mediating between data flows. It is a fully distributed platform that can be deployed across multiple integrated computer processors within a single physical node, as well as across multiple nodes. In addition, the Kabira Infrastructure
Switch handles programmatic complexities associated with the development of software solutions. It frees programmers from the painstaking task of writing and rewriting the code required to provide services commonly needed by all applications, services such as failure detection, transaction recovery, threading and concurrency, guaranteed messaging, online upgrade support, and object distribution. Programmers can focus their attention on business requirements and on creating the models required to meet them.
In addition to providing a rich set of services, the Kabira Infrastructure Switch has relatively small memory and disk resource requirements. This is because it stores all application data in shared memory, and leverages new operating system services such as threads and other shared memory services, that replace functionality traditionally provided by middleware and database servers. In addition it is designed specifically for objects created by Kabira’s automated code generator, so the two can work in tandem to provide an optimal implementation of user models.
Finally, Kabira application functionality is developed simultaneously on UNIX (Solaris, HPUX) and Windows NT to leverage the strengths of each platform. This eliminates the problem of products originally targeted for one platform that never run as well on a secondary platform.
B) Model-based development environment
All Kabira applications are designed using either third party
