Middleware Flashcards
a crucial bridge, facilitating communication and interaction between different software applications or components.
It acts as an intermediary layer that enables various systems to communicate, exchange data, and work together seamlessly.
Middleware
5 types of Role Middleware
- Integration Facilitation
- Interoperability
- Abstraction of Complexity
- Enhanced Scalability and Flexibility
- Security and Reliability
Middleware enables disparate systems, often running
on different platforms or using different protocols, to communicate and share data.
Integration Facilitation
providing a common ground for applications with diverse technologies to interact, reducing compatibility issues.
Interoperability
Communication protocols, formats, and data structures, allowing applications to
communicate without worrying about implementation details.
Abstraction of Complexity
Middleware solutions often provide scalability features, allowing systems to adapt to changing demands and expand
without major reconfigurations.
Enhanced Scalability and Flexibility
Middleware often includes features for security
implementation and ensures reliable communication between systems,
minimizing data loss or corruption.
Security and Reliability
3 Types of Middleware
- Message-Oriented Middleware (MOM)
- Database Middleware
- Middleware for Web Services
asynchronous communication between distributed systems through message passing. It allows systems to exchange messages independently of each other’s availability, improving system reliability and scalability.
Message-Oriented Middleware (MOM)
acts as an intermediary layer
between different databases or between applications and databases, enabling data
access and manipulation.
Database Middleware
enables communication and interoperability between various applications over the
internet.
