Overview of this book

Despite being developed in the 1980s, Oracle Tuxedo still runs a significant part of critical infrastructure and is not going away any time soon. Modernizing Oracle Tuxedo Applications with Python will help you get to grips with the most important Tuxedo concepts by writing Python code. The book starts with an introduction to Oracle Tuxedo and guides you in installing its latest version and Python bindings for Tuxedo on Linux. You'll then learn how to build your first server and client, configure Tuxedo, and start running an application. As you advance, you'll understand load balancing and work with the BBL server, which is at the heart of a Tuxedo application. This Tuxedo book will also cover Boolean expressions and different ways to export Tuxedo buffers for storage and transmission, before showing you how to implement servers and clients and use the management information base to change the configuration dynamically. Once you've learned how to configure Tuxedo for transactions and control them in application code, you'll discover how to use the store-and-forward functionality to reach destinations and use an Oracle database from a Tuxedo application. By the end of this Oracle Tuxedo book, you'll be able to perform common Tuxedo programming tasks with Python and integrate Tuxedo applications with other parts of modern infrastructure.

Chapter 10: Accessing the Tuxedo Application

Every Tuxedo client we have developed so far was running on the same physical machine. But that is a rare occasion in practice. Most applications have a frontend either running on a desktop computer or web-based interfaces running in browsers. The backend Tuxedo application is running on a big server behind firewalls. The frontend and backend must communicate with each other. In this chapter, we will learn what Tuxedo offers to solve this task of accessing the application over the network. We will also see what we can create with a small effort by using Python's libraries.

In this chapter, we will cover the following topics:

  • Using the Tuxedo Workstation client
  • Exposing Tuxedo services as web services

By the end of this chapter, you will have learned how to access the backend Tuxedo application from a different frontend machine over the network. You will learn how to use the Tuxedo Workstation component to access...
