5 Pacific Application Server Platform A single delivery platform for all Progress Web-based products OpenEdge Rollbase Corticon Not only the application but also the web server to support it Created from Apache Tomcat distribution Architected for secure operation Spring Security Framework included Realms and roles defined to implement access control 5

6 Pacific Application Server Platform Easy management Common set of enhanced management tools No Tomcat knowledge necessary Open monitoring JMX console/scripting Any third party Tomcat monitoring tools Extensible Each product can extend core functionality for specific product needs 6

7 Pacific Application Server Platform Uses the Tomcat idea of instances The Progress install will: Create a READ-ONLY tomcat home directory (a.k.a. CATALINA_HOME) And a default instance (a.k.a. CATALINA_BASE) Applications run in the instances 7

9 Pacific Application Server tools 9

10 Pacific Application Server Tools A single tool for configuring your PAS instance tcman.bat or tcman.sh create delete register/unregister as a service enable/disable workers 10

11 Pacific Application Server Tools A single tool for managing your PAS instance tcman.bat or tcman.sh start stop env config create delete clean (-A) 11

12 Pacific Application Server Tools A single tool for status information list info resources session Want to know more? tcman.bat or tcman.sh help help <action> 12

13 PAS for Rollbase, Corticon, and OpenEdge 13

14 PAS for Rollbase Configuration CATALINA_HOME=<install-dir>/Rollbase/pas CATALINA_BASE=< install-dir>/rollbase/pas_instance Default Ports HTTP 8830 HTTPS 8831 Shutdown 8832 Management tools tcman.bat or tcman.sh 14

15 PAS for Corticon Configuration CATALINA_HOME=<install-dir>/server/pas CATALINA_BASE=< install-dir>/server/pas/corticon Default Ports HTTP 8850 HTTPS 8851 Shutdown 8852 Management tools tcman.bat or tcman.sh 15

16 PAS for OpenEdge Configuration CATALINA_HOME=<install-dir>/servers/pasoe CATALINA_BASE=< work-dir>/oepas1 Default Ports HTTP 8810 HTTPS 8811 Shutdown 8812 Management tools tcman.bat or tcman.sh 16

17 Pacific Application Server for OpenEdge (PAS for OpenEdge) 17

18 11.5 PAS for OpenEdge More than just new PAS Platform New and Improved AppServer Totally new AppServer in the PAS platform All transports (SOAP, AIA and REST) built in Production and Development products No session model in PAS for OE (determined by client) New Multi-Session Agent Backward compatible With little or no application modification CONNECTION PARAMETERS StartUp and Shutdown Parameters 18

19 11.5 PAS for OpenEdge High Performance Multi-Session agent as much as 7 times faster than Classic AppServer agents As fast as Classic AppServer DirectConnect Less Resource intensive Multi-session agents use far less CPU and Memory than the same number of Classic AppServer agents Less supporting product overhead Scalable AdminServer, NameServer, AppServer Broker Using industry standard scaling software (like Apache) and hardware 19

20 11.5 PAS for OpenEdge: Sample Comparison Classic AppServer Components PAS for OpenEdge Components AdminServer Client AIA WSA REST/Mobile NameServer Client PAS for OpenEdge State-Aware Stateless State-Free Rest/Mobile APSV (AIA) SOAP (WSA) REST/Mobile AppServer AppServer AppServer Session Manager 50 Agent Agents Agent (1 Agent (1 ABL (1 ABL Session) ABL Session) Session) 50 Agent Agents Agent (1 Agent (1 ABL (1 ABL Session) ABL Session) Session) 50 Agent Agents Agent (1 Agent (1 ABL (1 ABL Session) ABL Session) Session) MSAgent ABL Sessions 1 ABL ABL Session ABL Session 20

21 Classic AppServer Configuration versus PAS for OE Configuration Classic AppServer Instance All instances located in common ubroker.properties file All properties in ubroker.properties No named service(s) Fixed STATE Model Environment variables defined in common ubroker.properties PAS for OE Instance Each instance located in its conf/openedge.properties file Properties in multiple property files Tomcat, PAS, & openedge Named service(s) No STATE, Clients set -SessionModel Environment variables defined in instance s bin/<app-name>_setenv.{sh bat} 21

22 PAS for OpenEdge Development versus Production PAS for OE Development Non-secure configuration Test server instance in $WRKDIR Remote administration included Tomcat remote admin enabled OpenEdge remote admin enabled Built-in oeabl web application (ROOT) Restricted # of concurrent requests PAS for OE Production Secure configuration No test server instances Remote administration optional Tomcat remote admin optional OpenEdge remote admin optional Built-in oeabl web application disabled Unrestricted # of concurrent requests 22

23 Configuring PAS for OpenEdge Client Connections REST/Mobile clients: No differences ( change URL in http clients ) SOAP clients: No differences ( redeploy WSDL with new port URL ) OpenEdge clients All PAS for OpenEdge connections are specified using the URL connection format -URL http[s]://host[:port]/oeabl-path For example by default -URL Reference: Connecting to AppServers Using a URL 23

24 PAS for OpenEdge ABL Application Architecture Models Client controls ABL session model via traditional AppServer sessionmodel option Stateless session model (i.e. sessionmodel Session-Free) Like State-Free in Classic AppServer Stateful session model (i.e. sessionmodel Session-Managed) Like Stateless in Classic AppServer Add a QUIT to disconnect or deactivate to get State-Reset like behavior Set connection to BOUND to get State-Aware like behavior 24

25 Configuring and Using AppServer Event Procedures agentstartupproc & agentshutdownproc Executes one time when starting / stopping an MSAgent OS process PAS for OpenEdge renamed classic AppServer event procedures: srvrxxxxx sessionxxxxx sessionstartupproc & sessionshutdownproc Executed in classic AppServer when the Agent s single ABL SESSION started/stopped Executes in PAS for OE when the MSAgent starts/stops each ABL SESSION sessionconnectproc & sessiondisconnectproc Same as classic AppServer for all Session-Managed client connections SessionActivateProc & sessiondeactivateproc Executed in classic AppServer on every Stateless & State-Free client request Follows traditional Stateless model 25

26 More PAS for OpenEdge tools oeprop.bat or oeprop.sh Modify the openedge.properties deployrest(.bat/.sh) deploysoap(.bat/.sh) tcman.bat or tcman.sh plist List processes First process is tomcat All other processes are msagents 26
