The purpose
of Caravan Business Server is to make it
easy to build reliable, high performance
and mission critical applications, using
an object based architecture. Caravan is
a FRAMEWORK and provides the objects, which
are needed for data access, communications
and user interface.
It is possible to build almost any type
of application by using a combination of
the available objects. What is most unique
to Caravan is that there are just a few
object types that are required to do this.
Caravan itself is written in C++, making
it possible to encapsulate the major technologies,
which are needed for building advanced
applications. It has been built completely
from scratch using a totally new and unique
approach.
There is a common source for all platforms,
so all versions are released simultaneously
and there are no platform specific features
or anomalies. Therefore porting to multiple
UNIX based systems is also a seamless
task.
