An installation of the Invantive Web Service consists of one or multiple installations of the Invantive Web Service software. In addition to the programming you also need to indicate the connections to databases that can be used through this installation. These can at least be the following database platforms:
•Microsoft SQL Server
•Oracle RDBMS
•MySQL
•IBM DB2 UDB (Linux, Unix, Windows)
The actual choice of the database platform depends on which application you will be using. Some (company) applications only work on a portion of the database platforms.
The support of extra database platforms can be added by a system developer or ordered with Invantive.
Requests are routed to providers as soon as requests for data or actions arrive to the webserver. In the configuration file you can adjust in which order this happens (see image).
