Abstract: The present invention provides an HTTP connector implementation to be used by disparate computer systems to communicate with each other over the World Wid e Web. In particular, the present invention is directed to business to business communications and meets the specifications of the J2EE Connector Architecture. The present invention provides an HTTP interface that may easily be adapted by existing applicatio ns while at the same time shielding the developer from the low level details of the HTTP .

Abstract: A development model for architecting enterprise systems presents a service- oriented approach which leverages open standards to represent virtually all software assets as services including legacy applications, packaged applications. J2EE components or web services. This approach provides developers with a standard way of representing and interacting with parts of a business application without having to spend time working with unique interfaces and low-level APIs. Furthermore, individual business application components become building blocks that can be reused in developing other applications. Using i:he service-oriented approach to integration in accordance with the present invention reduces the complexity, cost, and risk of integration by providing a single, simple architectural framework based on Web Services in which to build, deploy, and manage application functionality. In one aspect, a services toolkit for an integrated development environment is introduced to facilitate development in accordance with the model.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a connector adapted to convey data between a first application and a second application (or application components). The applications may be hosted by different computer systems interconnected by a communications link or network. The connector in addition to being interposed between the first and second application is adapted to communicate with one or more protocol handlers (wherein a protocol handler provides the formatting of data to conform with a specific protocol - e.g., HTTP, SOAP, etc.). The protocol handlers configure the connector thus allowing data received by the connector from the first application to be serviced (e.g., formatted) to conform to the protocol provided by the protocol handler which has been "plugged" into the connector.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a computer server having a generic interface for interacting with a variety of middleware products and application programmin g interfaces. The proposed architecture of the interface is such that knowledge of existing middleware systems is not needed to develop or modify server applications.
