Technology

The interface of Finesse is extended not only to a desktop but also to a palm top & WAP enabled Mo-
biles, as the application does not reside on the client end.

The detailed description of all the tiers of the solution follows:

Presentation tier

This tier interfaces with the user and consists of hardware such as a PC or workstation and a web
browser or a palmtop or a WAP enabled mobile. This tier is very thin as only the generated HTML/WML
pages with scripts get downloaded on this. The presentation layer is built using JSPs and Java Serv-
lets.

Application tier

This tier controls the flow of the whole application and thus facilitates the application enhancements
and maintainability. This tier resides at the server and is built using Java Servlets.

Business Logic tier

This tier provides the backbone to the whole application and contains the complete business logic. Pri-
marily the application layer accesses this tier. Business Logic tier is realized in the form of a web server
here, making it cost effective and portable across the web servers and application servers. Depending
upon the number of hits and the number of users, any number of servers can be put in this tier. Busi-
ness Logic tier is built using Java Beans and SSDSI Custom tag libraries for Intranet.

Data tier

This tier includes the database that contains all the data of the organization and a file server containg
all the document templates and the image files of the Design. This entire layer is encapsulated from
the end users.
Technology

Finesse is flexible enough to have plugins like Accounts, payroll etc in-
corporated into it. These plugings can be a solution as part of Finesse
or can be integrated with the existing solutions available with the client.
